Booze and Cigars?

It works just the opposite with me, if it is a strong a$$ that would normally give me a big buzz and I'm drinking with it (bourbon) then the cigar does not affect me as much.

Alcohol will raise your blood sugar so I figured that was the reason, and it just took the place of that. But who the hell really knows anything about the human body.

By the way I'm glad your survived the alcohol abuse you went through.

Hmm can your blood sugar be too high for cigar smoking?

Edit: According to http://www.acigarsmoker.com/cigar-faq/ the nausea/lightheadedness is from sugar being too high, which is not only counter to what I've heard so far, but also counterintuitive, on the other hand drinking lots of water does seem to help a bit.

I'm very close to buying a blood sugar monitor and enduring pinprick after pinprick to test this.

Me too, nothing like looking back on your late teens/early 20s and trying to count how many times you should've died.
