It's been now 5-6 weeks off ciggaretes and somehow I am struggling to get a deep breath after 5-6 attempts it's working, its feeling like something squeezing my chest or throat hard to describe, anyone had this situation? I've read something online that apparently your lungs are clearing out or something but not sure had it now for 3 days
If you were a smoker for a length of time, your lungs are absolutely full of crap.
Vaping is denser than cigarette smoke so it's likely you'll cough.
Your lungs are going through the "healing" process, removing the shit from themselves. Aswell as your gums having blood flow back to them, cigarettes restrict the blood vessels in your mouth.
Now it's not being restricted they'll start to open and heal IF and it's an IF your gums start to bleed it's because they're not as restricted as they were and need to heal. If that happens get yourself some mouth wash and an appointment with your dentist / doctor.
It could also be a PG intolerance or a flavour that doesn't agree with you.
PG can make you tight chested
Menthol / WS23 anything cold in a vape causes some people to have tight chests.
In no way am I qualified medically to say what is wrong with you, just possibilities. If you're concerned go and see your GP
I hope it clears up for you soon. Keep going.
Ps. What kit are you using? I'd highly not recommended DTL vaping for quitting the cigs. My personal view is, you're an ex smoker fresh off the cigs. Your lungs are damaged, if you're taking on clouds to your lungs it's not going to be a great experience. You'd need "stealthier" amount of vapour. All my opinion.
