My level of coughing while vaping has increased. I'm concerned, my wife is concerned. I'm not suffering any loss of lung function; I played a hockey game last night and had GREAT stamina. But the coughing is still a concern. I've been vaping for about a month, and this has been ramping up over the past week.
My list of possible etiologies:
-Vaping too much: I guess I'm a bit of a cloud chaser, and take big direct-lung hits at times.
-The juice I'm vaping: I at least try new juices that I get in the vape mail... if they're not steeped, can they be harsher?
-Maybe I'm just sick?
-Stopping smoking. I've been told that stopping smoking allows your lung cilia to begin to grow back, and when that happens en masse, it can cause coughing, but eventually goes away.
-I use a 65/35 VG/PG ratio. Should I go even higher on the VG?
-Technique: more airflow and slower exhaling might be in order.
Any other reasoning and assistance would be appreciated.
EDIT: I have an iStick 40W TC with 0.4 ohm Ti coils in my Joyetech eGo ONE. In temp mode I run 320-360F (it only has a Ni mode, so you gotta dial it down for Ti), and 17 watts in wattage mode. All of my juices are 3mg or less, and a majority of them are only 1.5... even a few 0s.
