This may seem bizarre, but very worrying

Blownupdolly i have the same thing, went to my GP and he prescribed me: Meloxicam to take before bed and it's all gone, they work great for me anyway.

Thanks Romelee
Did the doc tell you what it was?
I will ask my doc about the pills. I don't feel so bad now I know some of you had the same thing.

My GP told me that because you have stopped smoking your airways are clearing up more and allowing more air to get through which put a little strain on your lungs whilst your body is adapting to quitting smoking and that the reason you don't feel it so much through the day is because your lungs shrink a little through the day but expand more in your sleep blocking your airway a little and thats why it happens more in your sleep.

So he prescribed me Meloxicam to relax my muscles so that it eases the airways and keeps a 50/50 balance for the airways and lungs to function better whilst asleep.

He did also say try not to use your electronic cigarette to much just before you go to bed as with anything like food it can lay on your chest for awhile and because your airways have shrunken it will take longer for it to be released.

It happens more for me with any liquid with lots of VG so i can only presume it's because VG creates more vape and it lies inside me more....than again i ain't no doctor

When it happens if feels like my chest was tightening and pulling to the center, very painful indeed but now i take Meloxicam 30mins before i go to bed i don't get it no more.

Also at night i try and Vape a juice that has less of VG, it helps as even taking Meloxicam i can still feel it a fraction if i vaped really heavily based VG juices.

Hope it helps.

EDIT: Forgot to add, my GP said it has nothing to do with vaping, it's just your body adjusting and can take up to two years for your body to adjust to quitting smoking.

Dolly, we are all concerned about you, and hope that if the problem persists you will see your doctor. Personally, I would avoid the GVC for a couple of weeks, and use something else. If the problem goes away, try GVC in moderation. If the problem returns, stay away from GVC forever.
