A VG nightmare

Woke this morning from a nightmare about vegetable glycerin. In the nightmare found myself in a hospital environment. I was being told that nickle had fused itself all through my bones, joints. They explained that this was due to the VG acting on the nickle particles in my vape from a Kanthal coil.

So here I am. Can someone with a little more understanding of physiology offer some insight? Is such a thing probable? Possible? It kind of startled me and made me think.

And I know the basics. "Anything is probable."

"Dose and body type equal toxicology."

I get that. I'm just asking if it is seriously/direly likely.

Well.... that is a can of worms, and what you want to dig up for yourself.
It's also why I use ss316 type wire for my coils.

have a dig thru: Here

Just to be on the safe side :)

I can not answer this with any expertise, but have you considered the amount of material it would take to accomplish that. I think that you would turn into a palm tree before that could happen.

I've been vaping 80/20 VG/PG or higher DIY juice for over eight years now, most of that time on Kanthal and no TC. Vaped a lot on torch-burned K1 mesh wicks in old Gennies too.

Compared to the chemicals and metals and shit you got in a cigarette...well, it's called Harm Reduction, not Safe...

I'm good with it. ;)

*edit*
Ratios...meh

Sounds to me like you fell asleep with that assinine commercial with the Metal Monster Anti Vaping Shit playing. MAX VG for me~!

I actually think that was probably it. And owing to @Smoky Blue's post I found this which allays my concern.

And hey, even if vaping does cause brain damage, I know it's too late for me. I had that long before I vaped. *grin* Since birth factually and honestly. Ha!

I say whatever floats our boats on wires.. I just like ss316 as to me, it's a clean taste.
I could tell the difference after a month of using the ss316 compared to regular kanthal..
and I like to be different :p haha!!

Always do your research and draw your own conclusions.. when in doubt.. but always ask because you never know.. could be someone else with the same questions and scared to ask ;)

Once I started using SS316 I never used anything else. Years now but I do have other stuff to play when I have time but never have any~!

I like it as well but to me there's not much difference taste wise. Having no sense of smell also limits my sense of taste. So I can use kanthal, ss316, niChrome80 all the same as far as taste.

Use what you have.. us old timers know.. it's all good.
Sucks you can not tell the difference, but that is also a bonus..
I think I am cursed with being so sensitive!! It can be a pain at times..

So you are lucky :D

Can understand that point of view. I see and "see" too clear a lot. It too can be blessing or curse.

My biggest concern is with Kanthal. It contains Aluminum (FeCrAl). Considering to stop using it. Other than that, I don't give it much thought.

Dreams are strange, but they are usually just an overactive mind that meches unrelated things together. Would be interesting to know what triggered such a dream, though. You must've been thinking/reading/learning about metals recnetly. Or something like that.

I think it's what @SteveS45 suggested. We usually watch Murder She Wrote on Peacock prior to bedding down. Think one of those "Truth" commercials had run. I passed out.

Not sure why my mind paid any attention to it at all. I know better.
