Has anyone had any problems with vaping?

I have only been vaping for 6 months (Haven't had a single cigarette) and I feel so much better, my heartrate has dropped to about 70bpm, lower blood pressure and I can walk for a long time without getting out of breath!

What about you? Do you feel that vaping has caused you any issues?

It's just that I chain vape a lot as it helps with my craving, I never chain smoked and I am wondering does everyone else feel fine or have you had any problems?

My only issue so far is I can take a full breath when I wake up and not feel like my lungs are pulling my trachea down into my chest.

Like you, I feel much better, don't have whatever percentage of my hemoglobin bound to CO, can breath freely, climb many flight of stairs without losing my breath, etc., etc.

Also don't stink like an ashtray, don't have tobacco stained teeth, don't have to dispose of ashes and butts, don't . . . .

There's a lot to recommend vaping over smoking. :)

No signs of issues here. If you are worried that you are vaping too much (I chain vape all day unless I'm busy with something, and unlike smoking, I can abstain for however long needed without horrible cravings), you could always keep a tank ready with some higher Nic juice to help curb the cravings.
Sent with one hand, the other is busy vaping.

I'm 50+ years old, so at my age, any 'symptoms' I might get might not have anything to do with vaping at all.

But one thing I believe is stuff on my face, especially on my nose and forehead; I believe it's like what people report that a film or layer of stuff tends to accumulate on the inside of their car windows; so I think stuff gets on my face and when I scratch or peel it off the skin underneat end up reddish or brownish

as for blood pressure, my blood pressure always used to be 130/90 for decades, but when I stopped smoking and switched to vape, it went down to normal 120/80

I have been vaping since the late 2007 before 99% of the vendors opened their doors. My first purchases came from stores now long gone except Totally Wicked. My experience from vaping regarding my health has been good. I do at times feel a tightening in my chest when I over vape and I am sure if I quit vaping altogether I would breathe better. My breathing is much better then when I was a smoker but I still feel that vaping does infringe. But I will never give up vaping as I enjoy it as much as I enjoyed smoking and am damned if I cannot have at least one vice.

I am sure that vaping is detrimental to my health in some way(s) and am not blind to this fact. But it is our choice and being an adult you weigh out your choices in life and vaping is a choice I never plan on giving up. By the way I have vaped the same nic level since day one and that is 3%. I honestly feel I could vape without any nicotine and would be fine with it.

The biggest health issue from vaping is the health of my wallet!!!!
