been vaping since December 2nd 2013 all has been good but noticed in the last 2 months I have had a really sore neck lowered my mg s from high to medium 18 mg s that hasent worked sometimes its in the left side of neck other times the right side of neck or could be in the middle im at a loss how to get rid of it no way iam I going back on fags I just hope there is no nasty chemicals in them that we don't know about
I quit last April for the second time in two yrs and both quits brought hot flashes for a solid 6wks! No coughing though either time.
Congrats on your quit!
Oh...I see this is a fairly old post. Hope you're feeling better :)
So sorry "j." I am not a doctor, but I do know that when I am stressed, my entire upper body is rigid, without me knowing it, and when I relax just a bit, my whole body hurts : ( Tension could be the culprit so make sure you cut out everything caffeine (for a while) and do things that will help you relax, i.e. warm bath, calm music, scented candle, long leisurely walk, trip to beach, good movie in the recline position....anything that will distract your mind from the thoughts.
You're going to get through it, I promise you. Just go to some happy places in your head and stay strong ; )
I'm here if you need me.
My right side of my shoulder and neck are killing me day 5 without nic patch or gum ,headaches, nausea.and really bitchy at times!Oh ya and can't sleep very well.
after three days nicotine free, got a stiff neck, hurts, cant turn my head very far side to side.
thats great, i quit new years, but am chewing to much nicorette, , maybe your neck is stiff from exercising
I ma having the same problem now and would like to confirm with you is that due to nicotine withdrawal?
You sound like you are doing fine except for some itchiness which doesn't sound related. One piece of nic gum every other day? no habit there and not everyone coughs after quitting, I didn't
I'm not familiar with nicorette withdrawal but none of your syptoms sound typical. Perhaps the stiff neck is from tension?
There are hundreds of chemicals in a cigarette so it would make sense that our body has to adjust to not only the lack of nicotine, but also the other things.
When in doubt, go see your doctor.
Congratulations on your quit!
