I had dry mouth and extreme thirst, especially when vaping high PG juices (I still do use high PG in winter; it doesn't get too thick to use when colder). I have to drink at least 3 quarts of water a day or else my heart will pound, my breathing will get heavy, and I'll get out of breath.
When I'm vaping high VG (65% VG), I still have to drink more water than a non-vaper, but I also have to clear my throat constantly, even though I no longer lung inhale, but instead exhale through my mouth and nose. I guess the VG is coming out of my trachea.
Damn! Have you tried decongestants for the throat clearing problem?

For the first two weeks I used 24mg nicotine. I had dry mouth and occasional heartburn and nausea from vaping too much. I went down to 18/16 and those symptoms disappeared.

Now I occasionally feel like my lung capacity isn't as good as it could be if I didn't sub-ohm a lot. I believe it's mostly the heat that causes the air sacs in the lungs to lose elasticity, so I try to keep the temperature low.

Worst side effect though, I started vaping for many reasons, one being to save money. I spent $300 more on vaping than I would have on cigarettes in the FIRST THREE MONTHS!!! Now I have what I want though, so no more impulse mod buys

gained some weight. Eeeeverything tastes better, ya know!? I hear people say you notice after a few weeks but it took me really about 5 or 6 months but maaan when i did start noticing i could things better..... i remember tweeting about how good a butterfinger candy bar tasted. At first i was like "What are they doing different to these Butterfingers? They must be adding more peanut butter or something" LOL now that i think back on it i was so silly. Peanut butter and Jelly sammiches, i was sharing pictures of PB & J sammiches on FB. No ....! HAha Yeah i took a while but when my taste buds did wake back up....they WOKE UP!

I can smell BAD odors now. On the one hand, no more pet kitties so no more cleaning out the kitty litter. On the other hand, several rooms' walls and ceilings had to be washed and/or painted. On the OTHER, other hand, for the first time in 60 yrs. I can smell a pile of autumn leaves. :)

Do get an occasional runny nose in the early morning.......Fixed in a couple of hrs. Mouth gets dry after brushing teeth and using mouth wash. Biotene fixes that. Fine, thin hair gets limper quicker. Need to wash more often. Facial skin does not need near the moisturizer though.

I try not to inhale into my lungs. Did that "smoking" as well, and possibly the reason that I only developed a cough the last couple of years of my 53 yr cigarette habit. Nicotine in vaping is absorbed mainly by the mouth and nose lining, so I'm getting what I need from the first day of vaping.

Have NOT saved a red cent, but I'm happier and healthier.......and hubby's sinuses have bothered him a whole lot less. :)
