Maybe withdrawals? Randomly got sick 3 months ago and it’s going down hill

Posted , 4 users are following.

Hi, 

My name is Jason. I’m a college student in Arizona, I have been smoking nicotine (no Tabacco) from a Juul for roughly 10 months. I would go through roughly 1-2 packs of pods weekly eqaulivalent to 4-8 packs of cigs (nicotine wise).

Roughly 3 months ago I came back from class with a horrible fever and started vomiting like crazy, I had a headache that lasted a while too. Two days later everything is getting better so I thought, I wake up the next morning feeling vertigo, tingling in my face all over, muscle soreness/stiffness. Every other week on it just gets worse and there are some periods were everything goes back to normal. Example two weeks ago I felt normal and great now two nights ago all these symptoms are coming back. I’ve seen a cardiologist, rhuemaralogist, ENT, General health doctor/family doctor, have gotten a brain mri and a lot and still nothing that can explain all this.

    Im right there with you! I used to be a heavy juul smoker. Puff and puff all day long. Finally stopped smoking juul cold turkey about 5 months ago.  Started with anxiety, panic attacks, cold sweats, migraines.  Atm the migraines and sweats have finally stopped, still have anxiety.

    Did you tell your doctor about your smoking habits?

      Yes, I’ve told everyone I’ve seen this, however they don’t think it has anything to do woth nicotine withdrawals. I had a brain mri and my sinus came out inflammation/bigger, been using saline and all sorts of sprays nothing works. I recently saw an ear nose and throat doctor and he said my nose looked inflamed inside, otherwise I look good health etc so

      Have you seen a dentist? A lot of those symptoms can be from a tooth infection, even if you don't have pain

      Yea I would honestly say probably a tooth infection. But if it is, I think at some point your teeth would have been bothering you before it gets this bad. Have you ever had mild toothaches or anything?

      Good luck with your dentist appointment. Hope you find some answers!

      just went to the dentist today, said I have a few cavities, but that's it. he looked at my mouth to determine If the tingling and all these other very uncomfortable symptoms are due to a tooth infection, but to answer your question official nope I have nothing related to that.
