Do you think it's maybe an effect of running on the treadmill in the summer? I mean, I sweat a bit more his time of year, but I don't know UK weather well enough to correlate that or if folks use air conditioners there a lot in the summer.

No, we got the hottest weather since the 70s last week which was too much for me.
Aside from that, damp, cold, miserable. Particularly today,
I spent 30min on the treadmill jogging and it looked as if I'd been through the washer...
My breathing is getting better but I can't shake the sweat?

Got me on the sweat, but at least your breathing is better. The only other thought I might have is maybe you're just not used to this degree of physical exertion, and didn't realize the amount of sweat you were likely to have.

I noticed the sex frequency has doubled in my house since I started vaping.

Coincidentally, I've been on the road for work nearly the entire time.

As far as sweating goes, I haven't the foggiest

Lol. You've got bigger issues than too much sweat

I am a Mixed Martial Arts champion and I've placed 2nd on American Ninja Warrior. I also played football for Ohio State (won the Heisman 4 times) and I took the Pittsburgh Steelers to the Superbowl 5 times. I raced NASCAR for a couple years and beat Earnhardt Sr weekly. But that was pretty boring. Actually, everything is boring compared to being a Navy SEAL....which, obviously, I am.... Arguably, the best one. I pretty much saved everyone within 20 miles of me. Chuck Norris calls me Master.
I'm not trying to brag. I only brought that up to say I'm not sure if vaping has had a negative effect on my stamina or not.

(Since my cloudz won't make you think I'm cool, I figured I'd lie instead)

Yeah if breathing is getting better, I wouldn't sweat the sweat, you ARE doing cardio excercise, right? Maybe it's been awhile?

That said, are we talking cupfuls? Soaking sheets at night and having to put towels down? If it's only when you're excercising, I kind of think that means you might be doing it *right*. Anna

The least you could do is admit I was the one who kicked your .... on Ninja Warrior. You fought like a little girl, and I didn't even break a sweat, just to get back OT.[emoji56]

I played a game of soccer recently and I felt like my lungs were sore (Pressure feeling). The best thing for you is quitting everything and not smoking and not vaping. Remember that vaping is a harm reduction alternative to smoking tobacco. I vape allot though, I suffer from anxiety so nicotine is painfully hard for me to stop using.

It has been a while and it's an insane amount when just jogging for 20min.
Nothing at night at all or just sitting in the house.
Also, I feel the sweat creeping when I'm just busy doing normal activities.

I never used to sweat when i smoked and did no exercise.
I used to be forever busy and now I do nothing occasional shopping and exercise maybe an 1.5 hr a day inc. 30 min running.

Ok, I did a pub-med search and poked around and quitting tobacco is definitely associated with increased sweating, in general, and during exercise, and it can hang around quite a while.

There *were* a few case reports of people on meds that are metabolized via the same ways as *tobacco*, not *nicotine* and that can greatly increase side-effects from quitting like, one chick was taking a medication for restless legs, and she could NOT stop sweating until she reduced her dose by HALF. Wow...

I'd say that if it's only been a few weeks, I wouldn't worry too much, UNLESS you are taking meds, in which case you should consult your doctor immediately. Many doctors are going to a) not know or b) tell you since you're vaping, everything is the same, so you might want to do a search on interactions between quitting tobacco NOT vaping, and any/all medications you take, to bring with you... They're getting fairly good at identifying the pathways by which many medications are absorbed, but that doesn't mean your doc will necessarily be on top of everything.

Unless it's unbearable and as long as you aren't on any medications, I'd say wait it out a bit. Sweating in general is a common side effect of quitting, and the good news is you are flushing out those toxins. The bad news would be... having to be sweaty for awhile.
