Can Vaping Be The Reason For Weight Loss In Diabetic Patient?

I started Vaping some time ago as I was struggling without cigarettes due to stopping as a diabetic. Now I have palpitations, pale skin with a rash on the side corners of my mouth. I have been checked as fine with my diabetes but I have lost a little weight and people have noticed. I do feel that the vaping is the main cause of this but I am not sure as AI do get terribly depressed being life-long calliper walking paraplegic as well.
