Vaping with a cold

[ionian]

Eurgh - it's really come out today, I can't taste anything except a slight cooling with red astaire.

As an experiment, I've just stuck some USA mix in my dripper - I don't normally touch tobaccos, and bought this by mistake a couple of months ago - I can't taste it at all. I do get a mighty throat hit, but that's probably the fact that dekang juices are PG-tastic.

On the plus side, I can finish up all of those juices I don't like now!

i'm all better sinuses went to flare up but i stopped them with sinutabs and a copious amount of port. slept like a dead man and no headache so i'm back on vamp and RYwhore from chefs vapours

so my cold lasted approx 3 days instead of a week of misery. happy days!

am having a really bad cold - am just glad that I don't smoke anymore - yesterday I did not even vape - well tried a few puffs - today is a bit better - at lest I can taste my beloved banana and the lemon-orange-menthol helps

have heard it's quite common that when you stop smoking sooner or later you are hit with a cold - well a price I am willing to pay ( not that I have a chance anyhow )

Fingers crossed I haven't had a bad cold recently but when I do or I get Vapers tongue (vapes taste bad) I generally jump to pink mule and get some of Copsa's artic fuel clears me no end.

I too think that everything - cool - menthol - minty ... helps - funny enough I can taste the different flavours - so at least no vapers tongue

I will let you know when I manage to catch one, over a year and counting......
Never used to go more than a few weeks without at least the sniffles.

I will bring my granddaughter over Mark. She will soon put a stop to that.


I was the same. Not a single sniffle for 16mths, then, my granddaughter struck! Kindly bought her germs to stay last weekend and I've had the most horrendous sore throat and head cold for years. Strangely though, I still haven't had a cough, or anything go into my lungs. Having COPD it always does worry me. I am convinced the vaping does stop things developing on the chest.

As for flavours. I am just using my usual stuff. Caramel latte and apple and raspberry. Can't taste it though!
