The latest was having 2 cigars back-to-back after a hiatus of not smoking (it was after a surgery). I had not smoked in about 2 months...probably wasn't the SMARTEST thing to do.

However - didn't puke on either occasion. I just got veeeeery close. I also found my hands shaking from blood sugar going too low. I don't learn very quickly, apparently

I've definitely had the shakes from a cigar, for me personally this preceeds the nausea and is preceeded by a feeling of extreme relaxation.

So you can get an idea of how it can progress out of hand quickly:

Usually it feels like all of your muscles are just relaxed... extremely relaxed... almost TOO relaxed. You feel like your arms and legs weigh 100lbs each... but that's ok, because you don't really need to move... except to make sure you don't ash on yourself.

This is not a bad feeling, in fact, it might be the desired effect. However, this would be a good point to start to consider an answer to the addage "Is Too much of a good thing a bad thing?" If you continue down your path, you will probably find the answer whether you want it or not.

Then, after the really relaxed state, you'll maybe notice a slight twinge of the onset of a headache accompanied by a sensation of muscle weakness and shakiness. You will probably not feel like moving, but it's probably time to put the stogie down and crawl/belly-flop your way into the kitchen to find some sugar or a fully leaded Coca Cola.

If you must forego the sweets and persist in your smoking endeavors past this point... well, it basically turns into a Russian-Roulette game of "What was your last meal and do you want to see what it looks like partially digested?"
