My wife continuously derides me for my (what she considers) bizarre health improvement choices, and, of course, vaping nicotine for cognitive improvement was among them. She has, however, been plagued with severe sinus symptoms. She is constantly snorting and sniffling and hasn't been fully able to breathe through her nose for months. She's tried various antihistamines and pseudoephedrine over-the counter stuff which only slightly reduces her symptoms, although she did have some luck with a long-term antibiotic sequence about six months ago. Last night, as she continued to make obnoxious sounds while watching TV, I told her that, even though I thought she was going to ridicule me for the suggestion, I had a suggestion of what she might try for her sinusitis. I then relayed to her all of the stuff I've read here about propylene glycol inhalation and effects on congestion and antibacterial and antiviral and let her read a few papers dealing with the use of propylene glycol as an environmental treatment for hospitals and workplaces. I couldn't believe it when she told me she would try it (i.e., desperation motivates people, I guess
). So, today, I made up 30ml of 82/18 PG/VG (with 2% of the PG containing raspberry and menthol flavors). I tried the mix in a cleaned EVOD-clone, and the batch tasted pretty good, but without any nicotine throat hit, whatsoever. I sucked on the stuff for about 10 min straight, got no unpleasant tastes (although the flavors started to adapt after a while) nor any untoward breathing or other respiratory effects. I still had one unopened EVOD-clone, so I loaded it up with the juice and will give it to her when I get home from school today. I'll report back if she shows any improvements. If this works, I'm pretty sure she might start vaping her juice with nicotine. She, too, is an ex-smoker who hasn't touched a cigarette in over 40 years, and I know she could stand a bit of cognitive improvement
