Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?

[colinb913]

Today I woke up feeling great, took my little brother out to golf (shot a 38 over 9 ;)) came home, and had a stogie. As the evening progressed I had a Man O' War, a Blue Label, a Players Club, and another Man O' War.. Thats alot for me!

Now, I feel sick, stomach ache, shaky, dizzy and tired... I was wondering if all these cigars, which I smoked in a 6-7 hour period, can make me sick...? I am pretty new to smoking, and haven't had this happen to me before. I was wondering if it could be the cigars.

[Emjaysmash]

Yes, it's called nicotine sickness and you dont have to be a n00b to experience it. After a long winter without to many sticks, I jumped head first into spring by smoking a handful of sticks and I ended up feeling terrible afterwards.

[colinb913]

Oh.. How long until it wears off..?

[Whee]

Those two Man O Wars did it.

Always eat something before smoking and keep sugar close by.

I've had it happen bad, twice. When I say bad, I mean the room spinning-sweaty-feel your heartbeat in your temples-bad.:r

[colinb913]

I ate dinner in between number 2 and number 3...

Not too long, just chill out and maybe grab a piece of plain chocolate, sometimes it can help with the nausea.

Go try smoking a few Partagas blacks, CAO Brasilias, and Oliva Serie V's on an empty stomach and let me know how bad you hurt. j/k

It's usually not the quantity, but what kind of stuff you're smoking. Start with mild/medium bodied smokes and work your way up to the big boy stuff.

[Emjaysmash]

Eat something sugary or drink a coke if you're still feeling sick. That should hopefully bring you back on balance.

Also, sugar packets are a necessity for your herf/causual 4 or 5 cigars in a 6-7 hour period gear bag.
The only lasting side effect of what you have experienced is impotence.;s

You are kidding.. right?

[St. Lou Stu]

On the bright side, you can now drive it like you stole it! :r (If ya know what I mean)

[Mugen910]

Sometimes it happens in non-ventilated areas also. I prefer chocolate ice cream for my sugar fix :)

When I used to smoke Maduros often, it made me poo.

So you don't poo anymore? :r

[Darrell]

So you don't poo anymore? :r

No, I do. It was just MORE when I smoked maduros.

[T.G]

Huh, so Darrell is full of poo...

Who'da thunk it.



;s :r

I like the V8 splash for sugar. Its got a ton. Rum is also good for it Right Tim?

Sugar is your friend. A sugary drink will help, but straight sugar will enter the bloodstream more quickly. A couple of teaspoons or packets will do the trick. :tu

I only get nicotine sick when I shoot over 40 for 9.

[maninblack]

I got sick to my stomach after smoking an Immenso, 6x70. Not sure if it was the nicotine or that it tasted like ass.

[forgop]

I never heard of the sugar when buzzing/sick from cigars. Wish I had known about that in the past. It would have possibly helped with some really bad cigar buzzes. I felt like I was going to vomit a couple of times.

I usually bring some Reese's PB Cups with me if I am going to smoke several away from home, or grab a (non-diet) Raspberry or other flavor Snapple to sip if I forget the candy.

You played golf on Easter? :tu

'Swayt tay' is the way to go :tu

Sugary drinks will help get rid of the jitters a bit, but just work your way up to the stronger stuff and you won't have these problems (or more rarely at least)

[colinb913]

Stinky- Your damn right.. After church of course.. ;)

Huh...according to the brilliant people who keep wikipedia a shining example of crap on the internet...one-half a cigar's worth of nicotine is a fatal dosage to an adult...weird...that means I should be dead anywhere from 8-16 times a day! Also, too sound like a broken record, if you are planning on smoking a lot in a day, treat yourself like a hypoglycemic...and no, I am not knocking hypoglycemics, being one myself...always have a source of sugar around...I prefer dark chocolate or Dr. Pepper....

One of the cops at the hotel likes to talk about cigars time to time... he always judges a cigar on what type of diarrhea he gets from it afterwards. I never really have anything to respond to that when he brings that up.

Add copious whisky to heighten the experience!

[KenyanSandBoa]

Wow...I never knew about the sugar thing. That's definitely a helpful hint.

Now that I think of it, I've never really felt sick when I've gone on cigar binges and was drinking mixed drinks like Jack and Coke...looks like I was helping myself out by pouring those extra drinks in the long run. :D

Next time he does look him straight in the face and say:


"I already know you are full of it, stop reminding me."

What you were feeling was the effects of low blood-sugar. As the others have mentioned, sugar intake is the cure for nicotine overdose.

I think the nicotine sickness is there, but you just don't notice it with rum b/c the rum already has you lightheaded and spinning.:D

Me with no food + oliva serie v = sick !!! Worst feeling ever...luckily I love reeses peanut butter cups so I'm set from now on. Nice tips

How in THE hell did I miss this comment?
:r Wow! Yeah, rum will almost make you forget all about it.
I should know.... I smoked an Opus A, Hoyo Double Corona, Monte2... from there it was a blur.... but I didn't get sick.... from nicotine.

I think, at some point, a cat snuck up and **** in my mouth... because I could taste it the next morning.

Smoke more LFD Chisels and JdN Dark Antanos to build up a tolerance next time.

[DPD6030]

Just walk outside and vomit :r

[neoflex]

Smoking too many has never made me feel sick but sometimes after a herf I won't even look at a cigar for at least a week. It's not unusual when herfing all day to have my mouth feel like an old baseball mit afterward and the day following. Last herf I was at another person at the place we were having it came up to us and said "I have seen cigarette smokers chain smoke but never saw anyone do it with cigars before today." :D

[Rick Fletcher]

Smoking too many can make you feel ill. Sometimes I feel a sick after realizing how much was spent after a visit to my favorite smoke shop.
