Hey, Wyniverrn

You mentioned buying juice in Altamonte, is there a shop over there? New CFL Vaper myself, and I've been shopping online because I'm too lazy to drive to Esmokeronline.

I started about a month ago, and managed to get a sinus infection right after I started vaping. Not sure if it was related or not but I havent had any problems since that related to my transition to vaping.

There's no actual storefront in Altamonte, but thevaporshoppe.com has it's warehouse there. If you're in the area, you can meet them to get your stuff same day instead of having it shipped to you. :D

Where is Esmokeronline? I don't know about them...

EDIT: Also, my throat is still angry. Vaping with less nic pisses it off siginificantly less, however, so I think that was part of my problem. I'm being gentle with it now.

They were my "go-to" store (online) for much of my first year of vaping. Their prices are reasonable and the staff is pretty informative and helpful. I'm not sure about the brick & mortar store however, never been there.

This happens a lot, I have seen loads of threads like it and I also got a sore throat and sores in my mouth.

The PG in your juice dehydrates you, this can make your mouth and throat pretty sore. Best thing to do is to drink more, it is also a good thing to do anyway but will definitely help. It may take a few days to stop hurting too.

My experience went like this:
- Day 1: This is great
- Day 2: This is still great, I can vape in my home office all day
- Day 3: I better order some more juice, this is running out fast
- Day 4: Oh no! vaping has destroyed my mouth (google and find I need to drink more fluids)
- Day 5: Caffine and nicotine overload, mouth still sore
- Day 6: Decaf tea bought in bulk and mouth not as sore anymore
- Day 7: All is well in the world
I had similar symptoms then realised I had ordered a janty 36 mg as opposed to the 24 mg I had started with, mind you whisky has never tasted so good in years:toast:

I've been stopped by cops thinking i was smoking some kind of crack pipe, so i know how it is. But the sore throat could mean you need to drink alot more water. Vaping juice has humectants in it that remove moisture from tissues in your mouth. Ease up a little, drink some more water. Also, the reason your nose runs when exhaling vapor through it, is the vapor condenses on the hairs.

My guess is high nicotine content, seems like when you said you tried lower nic count you had less irritation.

Not sure how much you've smoked analogues before for sake of comparison, but my Pall Mall Menthols were 0.5mg of nic per cig, so a box would only be 10mg. If you're using high (24mg+) juice, vaping 1ml would easily be much more than that. Hence why your tobacco pipe probably doesn't bother you as much.

The PG dehydration probably doesn't help but I don't know that it would be the lone cause.
