Jack Posted January 27, 2010 Posted January 27, 2010 I have empathy for folks who suffer headaches and the other symptoms that go along with making the switch. However, I am SO looking forward to not having the smoke, reducing the number of toxins I am taking in, and the ability to take control over my smoking by vaping. This is a great forum and I look forward to having and getting over some of these symptoms once shipments are available again and I can make the switch! I am not planning on going nicotine free right now. I just want this e-cig alternative. Now that I have used one less than adequate starter kit, I am aware of the massive potential benefits of getting off analogs. The public still needs to catch up. At one time, I tried using my e-cig in a famous coffee house chain and the folks there asked me to do it outside. They were polite and so was I. Anyhow, I hope everyone feels better. Peace and Light. Jack
Schizophretard Posted January 27, 2010 Posted January 27, 2010 You came to the right place but you will have to look hard for negative symptoms.

I tend to hold the vapor in longer than normal, and when I exhale there isn't much vapor that can be seen. So far, the result is that no one seems to catch on and aren't convinced I'm "smoking" in a no smoking environment. There have been some curious looks, but no one has said anything.
nana Posted January 27, 2010 Posted January 27, 2010 I haven't had any negative symptoms from quitting smoking. The only things I've noticed are the good ones: easier breathing, more energy, no headaches, sense of smell coming back, taste buds working better, etc. I didn't even have the cough to get crap out of my lungs that so many have mentioned.

Jack I had plenty of symptoms, none long lasting though. Sore throats, a cough that was even worse than I was smoking, but it was productive instead of the dry death rattle I had before. Swollen glands, various other little things that I have no idea if they were related or not. One long lasting symptom that is both good and bad is the sense of smell/taste. Not all things smell good...including cigarette smoke on other smokers.
NeRo9k Posted January 27, 2010 Posted January 27, 2010 Like nana I haven't experienced negative symptoms either. I didn't cough up anything, no head aches, and I was able to sleep fine.
BigXor Posted January 28, 2010 Posted January 28, 2010 I only get headachy when I vape PG, so I vape VG almost exclusively; adding a little PG to my mixture will give more of a throat hit without the headache. 10-20%, but no more than that. .
