I have Parkinson's disease. I shake a bit not too bad. 2 days ago I went to a way more powerful setup. same nic level though (6). this coincided with my shaking out of control. I know no one can make a diagnoses over the internet but can fast nicotine delivery cause tremors?

I guess I can stop it and see what happens but I love this setup. it might rain in here!

I have been using it constantly since last night. I will not use it a few hours and see what happens. if it continues I will call the dr. it is too much of a coincidence though.
you guys said what I figured. I went from .8 at 35 watts tank to a dripper .1 at 120 watts. it was probably stupid of me to use it so much or not cut the nic level. afaik that is seriously powerful compared to what I had before. I did not actually plan on using that regularly but it just tasted so good.

okay I stopped since I last posted here. go figure it stopped. nicotine is a drug as I understand and probably not good to take too much. as I said I was doing this for about two days with a dripper. .1 ohm coil at 120 watts. 6mg nicotine. it had strange effects. as I said I do have some tremor but this was nuts. it may have affected the problem I already have. I don't know. before this I was using a tank .8 ohm at 35 watts 6mg nicotine. that was a big jump apparently and obviously more than my body can handle. I just wanted to fill the house with vapor. I achieved that but got sick in the process.

if I want to continue to use this would you go with like 3mg or less? it tastes incredible compared to more modest set ups I always used. however I think I am really pushing it with this power. I have seen the variant go to 260 and light the atty on fire. mainly I just do not want to damage myself but I enjoy this.

don't worry. if it had not resolved I would have paged my dr. I knew it had to be this though.

ahh. I see you guys answered this while I was posting.

rule of thumb: milligrams x watts = 100.

6mg x 120 watts = 720
That's definitely on the high end of things.

I think you should aim for 1mg.

okay this was one of the dumber things I have done. honestly though I did not realize what level of nicotine that was. I just figured 6mg is low. since people use 18mg. yeah at much lower voltage. 6mg is low at 35 watts on a .8 coil like I used previously and was fine.

what doesn't kill me makes me stronger. I won't try it again though. it was really unpleasant. it did not hurt but it was just strange having my arms and legs convulsing.
my doc once told me you should take any drug seriously even a vitamin. the thing is I did not know what I did.

buzzzlove that is hilarious. I can see it like in a steve martin movie lol.

Your build is extremely low. Have you read up on battery safety?

As for the other stuff. You said right, No one can give you medical advice over the internet, and we strongly suggest that you seek professional medical attention at your earliest opportunity. Asking for medical advice from strangers on the internet is never a good idea.

Go with 0mg Nic. You can buy juice online in large amount at very low price if you want to blow clouds at 120w.
