:(


Took long enough..

About 6 months full-time vaping (and since the last cig).. was vaping part-time about 8 months prior to that..

Figured it had to happen sooner or later


Had been chain-vaping all day yesterday.. switching up 6 or 7 flavors, probably not drinking enough water... Then last night, I notice flavor decreasing fairly rapidly for my juices until.. nothing

This morning? Still nothing...


Did some salt-water rinses & gargles, now vaping a juice I rarely use... Flavor is about 2/3rds there for that one, but everything else is barely there, at best


And just one more reason why I have a big bottle of unflavored on its way...

quitting smoking with the vape tends to make you have a positive outlook on life.

hope it passes soon

Cheers

Yeah.. I, too, hope the positive outlook on life passes soon..


Very out-of-character for me! :laugh: ;)


Got about 50% of my tastebuds back earlier, then they just crashed back down again..

The normally-strong delicious fruit juices are totally gone.. the rest are maybe 10%


Weird, because I can taste food just fine.. This is kind of messed up!

Stupid vaper's tongue.. :p

Thanks, but neither currently available..


Just downed some raw apple cider vinegar mixed with goji ginger kombucha..

Followed by some sugared ginger root nuggets

If this doesn't wake up the dead, I don't know what will...

No coffee? :shock: You are a much braver soul than I. I had a really terrible cold or something a while back and couldn't taste anything. Nothing. Vaped some cherry, whipped cream and lime that I'm trying to get rid of. No, not mixed together. Ew.

My first bout was the totally random, seemingly for no reason kind of vaper's tongue. Inhaling the smell (not the grounds) of freshly ground up espresso would bring my tastebuds back for a few hours.

I realized I needed to drink more water than I had, which I thought was a lot! Now I drink like 48+ ounces a day at least. It also led me to re-building as I figured out pretty fast one of the major factors in my inability to taste my flavors was the entirely crummy situation going on with pre-built coils and stock heads.

It's been flavor town ever since :vapor:

I had a mild case when I got the flu a little over a month ago, so I switched to menthol when I was sick and it was actually mild and soothing. Good juice to carry around when you're sick! MBV Candy Cane, actually... but it tastes more like sweet menthol to me. I have a bottle of Virgin Vapor Moon Drops and HOLY CRAP. Wanna ride on the wild side? Try a drop of that stuff haha.

Hope you get over your case soon, just give it time!
