Cigars & Stomach Aches

[superman78]

Hi Everyone,

I was just curious, but does Cheap Cigar = Bad Stomach Ache? Or what causes one to get one exactly?

I smoked a Montesino Toro (recommended from the cigar shop guy) a couple of days ago. I felt buzzed, my stomach hurt and felt pretty gnarly for a while. Didn't have a big meal or drink anything with the cigar.

Is this my body telling me that it was a crappy cigar and to never buy it again?

I smoked a Romeo Y Julieta 1875 last night and I felt pretty darn good!

Anyone else experience this?

strong nicotine = stomach ache for me when i first started ,doesn't realy bother me too much anymore

had you eaten much when this happened?

Nah, just had a normal meal and smoked a few hours after.

Montesino is the first Fuente (Arturo Fuente) produced cigar. Certainly an affordable cigar but by no means a cheap cigar.

Nicotine overdose!!!!

You'll grow accustomed to such things over time. Be sure to have some food in your stomach before you smoke foro now.

Nicotine OD will cause a light-headed, queasy feeling. It may be accompanied by stomach ache followed by headache. Severe cases usually result in vomiting! Eeeeeew!!!!!!!

Even still with me, after smoking cigars for eight years or so, if I smoke a large cigar too quickly or have a very strong one after smoking mild ones for a stretch I will get the nicotine dizzies on a rare occasion.

Don't panic. Eat. Smoke. And take big or strong cigars slowly!

Also if you're producing alot of saliva, spit it out, don't swallow it.

Ok, that definitely makes sense. Thanks for the tips and explanation. Thanks to everyone else who has responded so far too

When I was just getting started i smoked somethin a friend gave me... a really full bodied smoke...

I had studied through dinner cuz of a test and was relaxing after the test and hadnt eaten yet

i got cold sweats and the shakes and extremely dizzy and naucious... i could barely stand... had to lean against the wall to stay standing...

But i finished it... wasnt gonna let a good cigar go to waste...

had to slow my draws down really slow... only taking a draw every few minutes... helped me feel a bit better...

right after I was done I went and got a meal and felt way better pretty soon after eating.
