If the bottle was mistakenly mixed, and the nic level is much higher than what the bottle says, it would.

sounds to me like either the nic level is much higher than marked on bottle, could you test it with a nic testing kit?

or the vaso constrictor properies of nicotine not working with your vascular system.....I would seriously have all that checked for blockages, etc.

This is a hobby board. There are no doctors here. Most people can vape safely, but there have been a number of these kinds of posts over the years, including people blacking out, etc.

It doesn't matter if you smoked before or not......your body is your body TODAY, doing what it is doing now, not weeks, months or years ago. Asking non medical laypersons for an opinion about what sounds pretty scary is really not a good idea. Nobody here can advise you, they can only compare to their own experience, in their own bodies.

A post a while ago by a member was that he ordered 4mg nic and got 34mg......it's possible!

Yes, that's why I said:
That doesn't seem[/I] like enough nic to cause those symptoms, but as others have already said, keep with the docs and follow their advice. Also, you may want to have your liquid tested(or order a kit and test it yourself) to make sure that it is the strength it is supposed to be.

It's also a company that I've never heard of, which always makes me wary.

I have had a very similar experience. I have been vaping for almost a year. My first setup was a kangertech evod glass with a vv battery. I was using a 80 vg 20 pg mix of juice with 18 mg of nicotine. I had this for a while with not one issue. I recently upgraded to a kangertech subtank sitting atop a sigelie 150w box mod. The professionals at the store recommended that I reduce my nicotine level to 6mg which I did. Again I had no problems and was very happy with the upgrade. I had run out of my 6mg juice and had another bottle at 18mg nicotine. I went through one tank of this juice when all of a sudden while sitting in my car I started to sweat heavily, my heart started to race and became very nauseous. I jut sat back took some deep breaths and drank some water. After a while I started to feel better. I went back and bought more juice at 6mg nicotine and have not had a reoccurrence since. I am now down to 3mg of nicotine. I do believe a had a case of nicotine poisoning vaping at such a high level.

The not being able to move his/her limbs makes me suspect its not vape related, but obviously I'm not a doctor.

I guess right now, try not to vape to see if you can rule that out. And continue seeking an answer.

When I've overnicced, jumpy, can't sleep, nauseated. But, never visual disdurbances or paralysis. But, that doesn't mean it can't happen. Classic migraine does cause those symptoms in me, and once I had an occular migraine, which scared the life out of me. I thought I was having a stroke.

Nicotine is a vaso constrictor.

My brother got it after too much anaesthetic during a dental procedure.

Paralysis of the vasoconstrictors would very much make your limbs feel unmovable.

The OP needs a thorough medical exam, as well as to have the bottle of ejuice tested! It is very possible that either too much nic, or nic + certain medical condition, could very well make vaping DANGEROUS for this individual.

Happened to a friend of mine. We almost had to call 911, but after she got some fresh air and stopped puffing on the vape, it went away.

Next day she lowered her nic to 3mg (from 12mg) and no more symptoms.

Do not use that juice again. If you can, have it tested. I would follow your doctor's orders, or thoughts on the matter. I think it is a good idea to buy from known juice makers, who have a proven track record. The ones listed on ECF would be a great starting point, in that direction. Your symptoms could be many things. I am guessing your doctor would want to eliminate the source, one by one. It might be a very expensive adventure to do so. If I was going through this, I would buy a 6mg nic juice, from a well known company. Vape very very small amounts during the day. DO NOT CHAIN VAPE. Better yet, quit vaping for a little while. But that is just me. I am no doctor, nor health professional. Please keep us up to date on your progress.

I do not think that OP was asking for medical advice. OP just simply asked if anyone else experienced such a thing.

That being said I 100% agree with you about "your body TODAY"
I know that OP said no history of panic attacks but, it could be that if something stressfull is happening in life or some recent trauma.

I do agree with stop vaping or at the very least find a different liquid from a reputable vendor.

It's also possible that if you smoked before, it could have been self medicating/masking an anxiety issue. A lack of tobacco smoke has exposed underlying issues for some people. I'm not trying to say it's not the vape, just offering up other possibilities.

OR(and I'm only half joking here)

Have you been reading/watching/listening to "news" reports about vaping being as bad or worse than smoking, and have they made you question your choices? If so, we may have the first media/DPH induced panic attacks.
