Can anything bad happen if I take one hit from a vape?

Hello @mightyman, I see you are a new member, welcome! I am not an expert in vaping, but I have used them before while trying to quite smoking. You don't have to look very hard to find that there is a lot of evidence that the chemicals used in vaping, aside from the highly addictive nicotine, or THC, such as flavorants and other chemicals are super harmful to the heart and lungs.
Nicotine, from what I have learned after I quit smoking, is quite possibly the most powerfully addictive substance on the planet and it is no wonder people become dependent.
I was a dedicated smoker for over 42 years and finally quit for good five years ago. Cold turkey. That's my story, and my question for you is why are you asking if anything bad can happen from taking "one or a few hits from a vape?" Are you thinking of trying it? Have you already tried it and are wondering if you harmed yourself?

I'm thinking of trying and was just wondering if any thing serious could happen for the first time

hello, thanks for your comment. I have smoked on and off for 20 years, quite for 10 and back on now for another 10. I have every illness under the sun, mainly lupus kidney diseaase and a handful of other includeing hardening of the aorta abdominal artery and clogged thyroid arteries. When I found this out I was only smoking about 5 cigs a day but went down to 1 a day.
My partner almsot died about 4 months ago and still inc ritical condition, in major flare health not to goood right now, overwhelming stress, cut my anxiety of xanax back and anti-drpessant and quitting smoking my body went into withdrawals. Put down the smokes 3 weeks ago but substituting a vape in the meantime sparingly,. I know vape is not good either but it better than cigs right now. I know the vape is harmful as well but I feel I'm going in the right direction and eventually quit all. Thanks and have a good day.
