Hey everyone, I have a question I need to ask. I've been a type II diabetic for a few years now, & recently something came up that has caused ALOT of concerns to my little wifey....I've noticed my blood sugar numbers going through the roof a few times, & she suspects my vaping is causing it. I make my own juices, never more than 3mg nic, and I make all my flavors at 50/50 PG/VG.
I would consider myself a chain vapor, I'll usually hit my mod for about 10 minutes before I put it down, & will switch between my favorite flavors during that time, which is Rocket Puppy's RY4 Double, a Blueberry Cheesecake flavor, & some Grant's Custard Clone. Those are my go to flavors for 99% of the time. For the past few days, when I checked my sugar, the numbers have been in the high 300's to middle 400's.
Now I'm not a big eater at all anymore, but I do try to eat decent meals, my wife makes sure of that. The only other thing I could think of is I'm on alot of other medications for heart, & blood pressure, & diabetes. I am on the needle, been on it for about 5 years now, for my insulin needs. Vaping helped me get off of cigs, and I have never regretted it. I'm a dripper, since I'm a flavor junkie, and I use 2 Fuhattan mods with a Vulcan RDA, & a quad box with Vulcans.
The Vulcans are my only RDA, I just fell in love with them a couple of years ago, & have not been able to find a suitable replacement. I buy all of my PG/VG from a reputable vendor on Amazon, & the nic I use is always from Vapers Tek LLC. So, I guess my question is, is my wife correct in that the PG/VG is causing my numbers to blow off the chart? I would ask my doctor, but she has never been very concerned about vaping, just that I got off of cigs with it. I really do not want to quit vaping, I've found my sweet spot with my mods, and my coils, which I make at .35 to .45.
I'm basically needing to find out if anyone has ever heard or read about anything with PG/VG, & if it can cause this issue. This whole thing about my sugar being off the chart with my vaping has caused a few arguments between us, & a few times, I've found myself at the local flower shop buying an apology for the wife. It's never gotten harsh or violent, I just don't do that, but I despise arguing with my baby, so I try to change the subject, or politely disagree with her.
So that's it, that's the only issue I wanted to bring up this morning, and I'm hoping some of you will be able to help me find the answer. Hope everyone has a great day..
