Was I dehydrated??

[Steve K]

On fri. I got my first batch of e juice containing 70/30 (Vg/Pg) and I'm used to vaping Vg.I had to get up early on sat morning which I'm not used to but I was extremely disoriented, lethargic,Headache,Very similar to a hangover,But I don't drink.It lasted for a few hrs but did go away when I started drinking water.I do acquaint this to heavy vaping on fri,And when I went to bed my eyes were very dry.Was this due to not enough liquids and dehydration?? It was a very strange feeling like being drugged up.Haven't felt this since though,But I make sure to drink water now.

Yes. I'm a diabetic and those are signs of dehydration. I recently had to change my ejuice from 70/30 (pg/vg) to 60/40. Now I'm not getting much dehydration. Drinking water a few times a day helps.

 

[Steve K]

It was a terrible feeling,But as I said I haven't felt it since.

Some people cannot tolerate PG at all.

We're very lucky that we suffer from being lethargic, itchy skin, etc when we are dehydrated as there are far more serious consequences in relation to dehydration in regards to our organs. Our bodies are an AMAZING structure that usually gives us a heads up when things aren't right.

Being a heavy coffee drinker and vape head, I can contest that dehydration can be a big issue with vaping. PG and VG both dry me out. I have to physically make myself get up and drink healthy beverages to feel normal again. After lunch time, it really starts effecting me.

Gatorade is probably a good choice,Maybe better than water.But water is water.

Agree. dehydration can be a VERY serious matter. Last time it happened to me I almost wound up in the ER. Was off work for three days trying to get my body back to kinda normal. Listen to your body. It knows what it needs.

I would say dehydration is the culprit. Lack of H2O can make you really, really sick. Make sure to drink plenty of water...not soda, coffee or sugary juice, just water. Dehydration plays Hell on your kidneys and other organs.

I drank 10+ cups java per and Coca Cola. When I first began vaping I was well aware of the dehydration issue but being the knucklehead I am wanted to test this “theory”. Within less than a week I had itchy skin, dry nasal area, sore throat, headaches, juices tasting funky and very poor vapor. I began hydrating and within 2-3 days everything was back to normal. Realize also, on its own, more than 3 cups of java or caffeine laced soda drinks can result in dehydration. I drink at least 2 liters of water per day, now drink no more than 3 cups java per day and find the taste of Coca Cola repulsive. Sure I had to make changes in my lifestyle but it was certainly worth it.

I disagree. Gatorade and other sports drinks replace electolytes. That's what you lose in sweat during heavy activity. Dehydration from vaping is just a loss of H2O, water is definitely the best choice.

I had the same thing happen to me , I do drink alot of water but on a couple of occasions I woke up llike I was on drugs and Id spent the night drinking moonshine

 

[themegajosh09]

I felt the same way after vaping dekang Marlboro very heavy for a day, thought I was getting sick so bought a sprite and chugged it and felt better right then and there. U think u was dehydrated and so was I lol

I am hoping that is what has happened to me... Over the weekend, I did a lot more vaping than usual. Have had a sorta sore throat. Been drinking lots of water all day today and it feels a bit better... But that may be part due to the ice I am munching on too...

 

[Vapoor eyes er]

Good move as ice or lozenges are good as they get the saliva glands going.

Hmm never even thought of this but I have noticed since I started Vaping I sometimes have headaches in the morning. Guess I'll have to drink a glass of water with my beers!

 

[Dizzei.K]

Why/how does vaping dehydrate you?
Is it because of the multiple long deep breathes or something?
