Yep, those dudes won't cut a guy a break....already been there..... their replies were on the sharp side ...
I have experienced the same thing. short of breath fairly easily and my oxygen has been around 94 which gets checked once a month for several hours, always 94 or 95. All this started shortly after I started vaping. I do vape about 20ml a day though and high VG. Its just a down side of vaping for me. BTW I had quit all nicotine for about a year prior to starting vaping.
If your referring to the OP Im pretty sure it was a concern to see peoples experience compared to theirs.
An allergic reaction most certainly can cause low oxygen levels. My friend's got down to 76% from being allergic to her parrots.
Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis
Not saying the OP has this, or that he's allergic to vaping. He does need to see a pulmonologist though.

I didn't mention the shortness of breath to the doctor because I associated it with a temporary thing from vaping and thought I would just cut back. Whenever I mention chest pain, anything to a doctor they send me to the emergency room because of my history of PE, have been to the ER because of this maybe 4-5 times since, always negative since, and lots of hospital bills. Also, I went back to vaping because I started smoking again and it had helped me quit before.
Why do you continue vaping?
I think I'm going to just stop it all together. I have two impacted wisdom teeth (can't get into the dentist until March) that have been hurting lately after previously not bothering me, and I think it is probably from dry mouth from vaping... maybe causing infection. Sucks because I like it a lot nowadays.
With all due sincerity..
QUIT MUCKING ABOUT AND GO SEE A DOCTOR AGAIN, NOW! ASAP!!
Do not trifle with chest pain and shortness of breath. You have already a PE experience under your belt. And this becomes a question that you post up here?
Quit vaping. Do NOT smoke. See a doctor. Get answers. Even if it's not CONVENIENT or COSTS MONEY.
You do not want to find out the hard way - BY DYING - that you should have done things a little bit differently.
Okay? Is that clear and unequivocal enough?
As all of the tongue-in-cheek responses imply, Forums are a terrible place to ask for genuine medical advise...
That said, people seem to forget or just don't know that chain vaping is extremely dehydrating. Dehydration causes all sorts of side affects.Vaping all day without drinking lots of water is as bad as working out all day or drinking alcohol without hydrating.

My advice..Get a referral to a cartologist.The ER isn't the place for stress tests and Muga Scans .. Mine was falsely diagnosed as chest wall pains my an ER doctor
Don't ignore chest pains like I did. My story:
I'm well over 2 years into vaping now. Heart and lungs all clear.

Ok, my friend's GP kept blowing off her lowering oxygen levels. By the time she got to a pulmonologist things were dire and she was immediately hospitalized for 2 weeks. She's lucky she didn't die. The sooner you see one, the better. And of course you need to lay out everything, all.symptoms, all activities even if some aren't legal where you live (Not saying you're doing any of that, but if you are share that with your doctor). A GP is fine for minor things like a sinus infection, but they don't have the education on the respitory system a pulmonologist has.
My friend felt like she was "bothering" them because the GP led her to believe it wasn't serious. And she had quit smoking 20 years before so didn't want to believe she could have a serious lung condition. She also mistakenly thought allergies were all runny noses or rashes. She had such an extreme reaction she must avoid birds for the rest of her life.

I had seen my GP several months before my heart attack. I had been experiencing what I equated to indigestion/acid reflux related to my morning coffee. I explained ALL the symptoms to him, from the location of the pain and the type, to how it would radiate into my neck and arms at times. "Try one of the OTC antacids." was his response. Now I love my GP, great guy, but he totally dropped the ball. I was having mini heart attacks, no question in my mind, because the Big One started the same way but just wouldn't go away like the others.
I've had specialists drop the ball, too. My advice is if the doctor's answer leaves you at all uneasy, or just doesn't feel right, get a second opinion.
I'm experiencing similar symptoms. Perhaps you can just walk me through this here on the forum. It'll save me that pesky co-pay....
