Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

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.

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.

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

Edit: First hit on google!!! Go Ca!!!!!!

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

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

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

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

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

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

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.

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

:tpd: And since no one else mentioned it: nice round! :tu

Haha, thanks kreth!!! Sippin a coke and having some girl scout cookies as we speak..

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?

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

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

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

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.

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

So you don't poo anymore? :r

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

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

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

Huh, so Darrell is full of poo...

Who'da thunk it.



;s :r

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

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

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

I heard girls don't...

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

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

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

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

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

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

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

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.

Like Mexican Coke?

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

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

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

'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)

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

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....

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

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.

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

Add copious whisky to heighten the experience!

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

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

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

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


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

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

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

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

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

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

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

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

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.

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

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

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

Just walk outside and vomit :r

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

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

Re: Can too many cigars make a newbie sick?
 

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.
