Hello, the reason I think its from the PG is after I used the ointment from my doc, it cleared up,I normally vape 50/50. I had my juice guy mix up the juice I vape on the regular but this time he made it 80vg 20 pg . I vaped only that juice for about 10 days, the symptoms came back while i was vaping the 80/20 vg/pg but not nearly as bad and I was not using the ointment at that time. once that juice ran out I went back to vaping my 50/50 juices and with in 2 days my face broke out big time.. I was just wondering if any one had this exact same symptoms, I have heard of itchy skin before but I have not heard of the break outs like I get. I ordered some 100% vg and I will see how it goes... Thanks for the input guys
I don't know about those symptoms from PG, but allergies/sensitivity to PG is very common, and in general allergies can cause a very wide variety of symptoms, certainly rash and hives. I used to have breakouts that basically looked just like acne in reaction to detergents and fabric softeners that I was using on my clothes.
Hi Everybody and thanks for all your input. I have been speaking to a friend of my who I'd forgotten was a flavour chemist who worked for one of the major tobacco companies and I think I have an explanation for what has happened to me. Basically three to four weeks ago I bought some nice 24mg juice and hit it way too hard with my Provari wound up with a nice dual coil tank and you guessed it... nic poisoning!
Well that's kind of scary. Glad you seem to have figured it out though. I guess giving yourself nicotine poisoning is one way to quit smoking. Isn't there actually a prescription drug for breaking some kind of addiction that makes you feel ill when you consume the substance in question?
Anyway, if you're happy vaping 2 mg juice, there's really no reason to ever try to go higher than that, unless maybe you eventually feel like you've developed a resistance to it and you're not getting the same effect anymore. If you're ordering prepared juices, there's a good chance the company you're buying them from would be willing to mix some up with a custom nic level for you - that way you wouldn't have to go to the trouble of mixing in the nic yourself and also diluting the juice.
Definitely very good advice to be careful with nicotine and to start at a low nic level and only gradually work your way up. Hopefully some people can learn from your little adventure
