Help! I've been vaping exclusively since June 2014. Now down to 8mg from 24mg. I've had a vile super cold all week, broken the back of that now BUT every time I vape it makes me feel sick and light headed. My face and scalp sting and my gums are sore. What the heck is going on, I need my fix!

Have you changed brands or got a new flavour?

Thanks

No Dizz, I've stuck with the same 2 ever since I stopped. I've put some zero nicotine in just now to see if that makes a difference. Could it be a PG or god forbid a nicotine allergy?

I'm vaping cloudstix double mint 11mg. The other one is indulgence double mint 8mg (from my local shop), I've used both for ages.

Can you overdose on 11mg or 8mg? I've really not been abusing it due to being so poorly.

Thanks. I'll persevere with the 0mg for a bit and pop to the vape shop later.

It wont be a nicotine overdose - honestly, i overdosed on nicotine when i was a teenager and it took a box full of those patches, gum and about 10 fags two at a time one after the other. And all that happened was a fainted and was sick (Please dont ask, just accept that my friends and i were twats).

I don't think it would be physically possible to overdose on an e cig because by the time you got anywhere close to taking in the amount youd need to overdose, itd be leaving your body already.

Allergy is possible though - My other half is allergic to VG but a PG allergy is more common.
