My wife who has never smoked had this last December and was rushed to hospital where they suspected she had a mini stroke until they found both these areas were affected. One due to an infection and one due to age.

Someone else might have better info. I get that every now and then. It usually happens when I am trying out new stuff and vaping alot in a short period of time. I think it's to much nicotine. My first cou [ple of days I was always vaping 24mg. I still use some of the 24mgs when I am craving, however most of the day I am vaping 12mgs.

vivictus Super Member ECF Veteran

That may not have been a cold or sinus infection either. Many suffer symptoms that feel like a massive cold with a cough and very achy sinuses when quitting smoking and taking up vaping. Most, if not all of this is from quitting the analogs.

Ardeagold Super Member Verified Member ECF Veteran

Do you remember smoking /inhaling your very first analog? Did you get dizzy? I sure did...and did with my first analog of the day for about a year. Is it the same feeling? If so, possibly the nic strength is too high for you. Perhaps you might want to cut the strength a bit.

WomanOfHeart Vaping Master ECF Veteran

It could be a combination of withdrawal from analogs, being sick, and vaping a high nic level. It sounds like the dizziness only happens when you're vaping, which could be an indication that you're getting too much nicotine. You might want to try decreasing the nic level and see if the dizziness goes away.

DonG Super Member ECF Veteran

agreed. I was a 1.5-2 pad marlboro red smoker so I went with 26mg right off the top. Within a week I felt like I was getting too much nic (not so much in the morning but by noon for sure) got some Glycerine and cut 50/50 (13mg mixed) and was better but still had some "not natural" feelings; not really dizzy but not normal.....
