Hi everyone,
This will be a semi long read, but please bear with me.
I'm hoping someone could throw some light on this strange symptom I often get. I have scoured the net and found virtually no pages detailing the same symptom.
So, I started vaping 7 years ago. I started on CE4's and had no problems. No cough as many report etc. Used that for quite some time and then went onto Aspire Nautilus and Cleito after. That's when this very irritating (quite literally) symptom reared it's ugly head.
So occasionally (maybe once or twice a day) after an inhale, I get a very dry feeling in my throat, followed by an extreme tickle sensation that I can only compare to the feeling of a hair in the throat, or a fibre. This causes me to cough, or hack, to try and stop it. Sometimes it goes quite quickly, other times it can stay for upwards of 10-20 minutes, gradually easing. At it's most extreme, it causes running eyes, and loss of voice, or extreme hoarseness and quietness. Once, a few years ago, it was so severe that I actually coughed up a slight bit of blood due to the very hard coughing. Luckily I haven't had it that bad since.
At first I thought it may be a coil issue, but this symptom has stayed with me for the last 5-6 years through numerous devices (aside from the ones I will mention further down)
Now, I know people's first thought would be dehydration. Nope..I stay very hydrated and this symptom can happen on the first few hits, or after numerous ones.
Neither is it wire material. I have the same symptom with NI80, SS, Kanthal etc
Neither is it PG or VG, I have tried max VG or high PG, it still occurs.
Neither is it due to allergies, sometimes it occurs with one juice one day, and still with another the following day.
And neither is it due to a health problem. If I abstain from vaping, it vanishes.
Now. The really interesting thing I have come to discover is that it only occurs on round wire coils (Basic coils, claptons, aliens etc etc). It however does not occur on mesh coils such as the Falcon tank, and mesh RDA's and RTA's. I can vape away like a trooper on mesh with no irritation whatsoever. Switch back to conventional coils? Bang, it starts again.
I'm really hoping someone can shed some light on this problem, it may not seem severe, but it is really irritating and I'm always anxious of it happening. It sort of ruins my enjoyment of vaping to some extent. Thus, I am currently using the Doom Mesh RTA and have had not one single occurrence of this symptom for over a week. However, I love my normal RDA's and would really love to use them, but can't due to this infuriating symptom. I am yet to meet someone in real life, or on the net, that has this same symptom. Coughing? Yes. Sore throat? Sometimes. But never a hair feeling and tickle in the throat followed by extreme coughing. I am envious of people that can vape away on anything without this symptom. It is so so annoying.
It's obviously due to something involving round wire, but not sure what.
Please help me
Thanks
