There's obviously a lot of discussion on whether vaping causes shortness of breath, but all seem to be about long term use and ongoing shortness of breath. I recently picked up a bottle of 50mg nic salts and loaded up a tank. When I hit it, I get really short of breath, but just for a few moments. Others familiar with that? Know the cause? Is it just too much nic at once?
50 mg nic salt and loaded a tank, huh? May I ask, what tank?
What is the Pg/Vg ratio? What was your previous nic mg/ml? What tank, resistance & power were / are you using?
It's a Kanger Subbox tank with an RBA coil, and battery from a Vaporesso Guardian One. Battery is not adjustable, so I don't know what it's putting out. Prior to this I was primarily vaping Juuls, which I know are 59mg/ml...
Is it just too high nic for the mod? I can put it back on the Kanger Subox and control the wattage, but it's just so darn big and the charge lasts about as long as it took me to type "the charge lasts as long as it took me to type."
The difference between a subox and a juul are night and day. Maybe try some 6mg in that mod .
What's the resistance of the RBA?
Just an FYI- I have used as high as 12 mg in a subox, in case 6 mg doesn't quite do it for you.
My friend, this is an internet forum; it is not a medical resource. Shortness of breathe seems to me to be a tad above our area of competence.
Way too much nicotine. Subtank and 50 mg.....don't.....just don't
Here I am using 3 mg (not Nic salt) in a sub tank. I can't even imagine what 50 mg Nic salts in a sub tank would be like. I'm no doctor and I didn't even stay at a Holiday inn last night, but my suggestion would be to not do it perhaps, but that's up to you of course.
Maybe try some 6mg in that mod .
Many have a sensitivity to high Vg that causes all sorts of breathing difficulty symptoms, myself included. In my opinion, asking basic questions like Pg/Vg ratio, power & resistance used etc. isn't playing interweb doctor. But, when someone is asked and either doesn't know or refuses to answer simple basic questions it is all guess work. Breathing is kinda important, one of those unwise to guess deals, if you have any concern that vaping may be a contributing factor or cause, stop.
Different styles of devices require different nic strengths.
I'm not really sure if "I just put 50mg in a subtank" is a medical question or above this forum's ability to answer. "Don't put 50mg in a subtank" and "Juul ≠ subtank" seems to be much safer answers than "Keep on doing it for 2 - 12 weeks while you wait to see a Dr." The reason those wimpy delivery systems use high nicotine strengths is because they're wimpy. That knowledge may not be a Dr's strong point.
For what it is worth
Not medical advice but 50 is too high for "subohming" in a kanger subtank. Your battery provides 40 watts of power. I use a toptank which is nearly the same and I vape at 3mg, 20 watts - used to use 6mg in that tank, Nic salts come in higher concentrations so that might be causing the temporary shortness of breath with that setup but again - not medical advice. Generally speaking, if you only notice it on that tank why not try a regular e juice in a concentration of 6mg or purchase a refillable system where you can use the 50mg nic since the pods are low wattage devices, Also, as some mentioned it could be an ingredient in the flavoring but I think a sensitivity would last more than a few moments.
50mg salts ? dayum i can get shortness of breath if i hit my straight 3mg too much in a sub ohm anything
