dangolf18 Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Ok so I've recently cut back on my cigar smoking. Averaging about 4-5 cigars a month max. So today I decided to enjoy a ERDM CS at my club and after finishing it and low and behold I almost fainted. Has anybody else who has taken a hiatus from cigars experienced this? I'm starting to think it's because I lifted really hard yesterday and my muscles were sore and I hadn't eaten much for breakfast and lunch. Maybe it has something to do with depleted glycogen levels or just too much nicotine at once. Anyhow, didn't actually faint, but got blurry vision and almost collapsed. Couldn't believe a ERDM could do that to me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulP Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Eat something sweet to counteract the nicotine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maplepie Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 I've had people mock me after i said young ERdM CSs are strong smokes. Ha! Take that: those who thought i was crazy!! I still might be. But at least Dan's going down with me!! Depleted glycogen levels is a good theory... if you believe that sugar helps with nicotine metabolism and resistance. I've yet to see any studies on that. But sounds like you're just excessively tired from that. And a cigar just extended and augmented that annoying buzz. May i ask: how far did you smoke it down to?

Put it down beginning of the last third. Yea, I'm a living testament they are badass smokes lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fabes Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Also, make sure you are drinking plenty of water regardless if you're smoking or not. It sounds like dehydration could have contributed in the scenario described. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

finecigar Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Yea water is incredibly important for me. I will get dizzy more often in the summertime from not staying hydrated enough through the day prior to a smoke. Also eat your breakfast!! Sorry though. ERdM pulled a fast one.

I've yet to see any studies on that. I haven't looked for a study on this lately, but I thought I found several suggesting this in the past?

SCgarman Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 There is very little if any ligero in a choix supreme, hence for me it is a flavorless waste of money cigar. If I have not smoked for a couple of weeks, a cigar will tend to be a little bit stronger nicotine wise, at least that is how it feels. It helps to drink something with sugar with some cigars like a sweetened iced coffee or a glass of Coke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
