Nicotine Self-Study (Day 15)

 

The best way to predict the future is to create it. – Peter Drucker

I’m going to keep this one short as I am heading out tonight to the shore. I’ve been feeling pretty damn good in terms of symptoms. I am exactly one week off prednisone and was originally terrified as to what would happen to me once I came off.

In terms of the vaping itself, I have one minor complaint. Either from the alcohol or the high nicotine level, I have had some irritation in my mouth that caused canker sores and some swelling under my tongue. And, it’s painful. I’ve been rinsing my mouth and brushing more often and this seems to help. I did hear that this is actually common.

I thought that perhaps I’ve had a reaction to the alcohol in The Lazy Iguana and the In The Raw juices, so I tried the alcohol free e-gel. I suppose we shall see. I think my sweet spot is going to be 12mg. Unfortunately Kind Juice doesn’t currently make the e-gel in 12mg. Insert super sad face.

Know any organic, VG only, alcohol free suppliers? Comment below.

I’m continuing on my SCD journey and having fun with creating dishes that are both pretty and tasty. I feel pretty good overall – my focus at work is back, I feel more confident heading out and about, and I’ve yet to have any significant detours in my symptoms from the UC.

I think I’ll update at the 30 day mark unless something worthy of mentioning occurs. Until then…
