My wife and I tried switching from cigarettes to vaping.
After about 2 years and probaby $5000 dollars spent on batterys, kits, coils and juice (not counting the cost and time to drive to these rudely run local vaping atores) she came down with bronchitus and pneumonia. She spent a week in the hospital and had always claimed it was the e-cigs making her sick.
I felt a bit guilty because I was the one who first saw these as a safe smoking alternative and encouraged her to switch.
On.my side during the same time frame (2 years) I started getting a chronic running.nose, especially while I slept. I sleep on one side or the other. One morning after.months of dealing with this I awoke with a clogged ear canal and had loss of hearing in my right ear. At this time, my wife has stopped all vaping and was feeling fine, unfortunately, back to smoking cigarettes. I went to my doctor and he referred me to a ENT specialust. I made three visits to this expert and he could not solve or pinpoint my chronic running nose. My ear problem had slowly gotten somewhat better but was constantly ringing and hearing loss. MY wife kept insisting that my.problem was the vaping but I just could not believe it could be because I enjoyed vaping.
I stopped vaping and after a week all my symptoms disappeared. I had told my ENT that I caped but apparantly he didn't think either that there could be a connection between the vaping and.my health issues.
I also started to develop what seemed to be emphasyma type issue (scorched lungs) if I even took just a very small puff off of a e cig. With that said I was ok again if I smoked regular cigarettes. Just really wierd things were happening.
That was 4 years ago. To this day I still cannot inhale any vaping device or juice without it sending.me into a coughing fit.
After my experience, I went back to traditional tabacco cigarettes for another 2 years before quitting with the aid of nicotine lozenges and gum.
I am smoke free and vape free.and dont have to worry about the pain and costs of cigarettes or vaping.
Personally, I think the burning coil or the PG which is the main inge diet in antifreeze where the culprits.
Just my.honest opinion and experience.
Maybe this could help others that.might have experienced the same issues.
