Raggy, some brands of glycerine may be animal derived rather than vegetable, however, they won't contain any PG. If you cut it with VG then no it won't actually remove any of the PG, but you will get less % PG per vape. I was also thinking the same as Foxy, I'm surprised it's taken this long for an allergy to kick in. Added to that, PG is used in many everyday thins, from margarine to toothpaste & mouthwash & I'm guessing you aren't allergic to any of those items? Chrissie, i was typing while you were. as the post above says maybe the sd aint helped. i say i have no allergies,but since i was about 18 i get red blotches under my nose left and right of nostril ,normally a day after shaving,which why i only ever shave every 3 days otherwise it can get sore i use canestan hc when it gets bad,which is about 3 times a year (no its not thrush ) doctor have always said its from the cement i work with and depending on what powders i use it does inflame it,it then goes to flaky skin (sound like a bloody leper ) this only happens for about 12 hrs then its gone,shaving the next day if its gone red is asking for problems. so that could be an allergy but i think its a touch of dermatitis. christ i sound like a right catch me. dont normally discuss my flaws with the ladies ragjoy..........

It's certainly worth trying experimenting with the VG liquid. It might also be worth seeing if lowering your nic level stops the headaches? Lol Raggy it's good though that you can talk to us

My ex-brother-in-law was a highly skilled plasterer (as well as a rogue) and he had to give it up because it caused skin problems and aggravated his asthma. Good thing he had roguery to fall back on Raggy, once you start diluting you come up against the "weak flavour" problem, so I would consider buying a VG flavouring, like from Decadent Vapours or FlavourArt. As usual, I don't know enough details, but I found this about Dec Vaps: Made with ultra-smooth, highest quality diluents (available in Propylene glycol, glycerine and PEG-400)
If you find VG too thick, or if you'd like to try a different base altogether, I like the PEG based juices from www.ivapour-elixir.co.uk/peg-liquid/peg-liquid.html - I've just ordered the RY4 because someone said it's nice, and I've tried the Cappuccino and that didn't have as much sweetness in it as PG or VG (as I have said before). scylla

I dont think you're itching from the juices Raggie. Have you changed your washing powder? Maybe its that. My wife and I cant take the Bio washing powder whoever makes it. We have to use Non Bio and its stopped the itching.We for some reason went back to Bio and we started itching again so reverted back to Non Bio and everything went ok. We make sure we get the right stuff so try that. Change your washing powder.

Bucko....the headaches might be dehydration....i know i have to drink extra water since vaping, or i get headaches...
the colour of your urine is a good indicator, it should be almost colourless if you're well hydrated.

I will leave the urine alone personally hehe BUT PG can give you some side effects as you describe ...... as Scylla suggests get VG juice and remember the flavours are not as strong as PG so ask for double strength flavour is it is available
