Cigar-Smoking Scum
I usually have a bottle of Mexi-Coke when I have a cigar. Used to not remember to eat beforehand, so I've had a few Nic Kiks. A MUWAT Baitfish sent me to the toilet puking in my earlier days. Have also gotten the spins and had to go lay down for a half hour or so. But these days I haven't gotten anything too bad, I can also tell if it's coming on, and will slow down or stop if that's the case. Keep 3 packets of sugar in my car just in case any of this should happen when I'm driving, have poured one under my tongue in the past to keep me from having to pull over...

HATE licorice! But I may have to give it a shot to perk up the breath after a cigar or 2, 3.

I had been smoking not long after I ate. This time it was several hours later. Hmmm... that's not true come evening.
I used to smoke no less than two packs of smokes a day and often more. But then I quit about 6 years ago. And I didn't start smoking cigars again (wasn't a dedicated smoker then) for about 4 years. Karmen wasn't too happy when I said I wanted to buy some sticks. She was afraid I'd be hooked like before (had me by the cajones!).

I've had a few bouts of nausea over the years. Almost always when I've smoked on an empty stomach. Ginger ale is my go to in that situation. I have been known to suck on a teaspoon of sugar if it was more severe and that helped pretty quickly.

Ginger ale helps with nausea.

Anything with sugar helps really. A bit too much vitamin N can cause a spike and then drop in blood sugar. Smoking can also dehydrate you a bit, which makes things worse.
I usually have some form of chocolate on hand because I'm a fat kid that loves candy. I also tend to keep some Gatorde on hand as well as it kinda deals with both drops in sugar and dehydration.

For me if I come down with a case of Vitamin N then a chocolate or a piece of chocolate bar remedies the situation almost immediately.

Oh yeah, haven't had the nausea issue since stupidly inhaling as a kid, after stealing one from my Dad.

I got nic sick once when I first started smoking cigars. I barely made it to lay down and then just laid there eventually spun my way out of it. Felt like a death spiral for a while. I now only smoke after a meal while drinking something sweetened. From what I have read the quickest way to shut it down is to let some sugar desolve under your tongue.

Sugar under the tounge works. I got sick to the point of puking once when I first started out. Still feel the N occasionally but now I know what it is and I'll do the sugar trick.
I don't have emotions, and sometimes that makes me very sad.
