Nicotine Poisoning
I have been trying to find some information on this, but how many cigarettes would you need to smoke to get this? Does it depend on how much you inhale? Does smoking on an empty stomach have anything to do with it? I can't really find any answers to these questions.

I think that it is more likely to occur when nicotine is ingested and that there is a possiblity of problems due to exposure through the skin.
You're not thinking of poisoning someone are you? __________________

Nicotine poisoning...huh. I've never really thought about it happening, but really isn't it what's happening anytime you smoke? |

No, not planning on poisoning anyone . The only reason I ask is last night after I smoked I felt really sick to my stomach, got really tired and dizzy, and had a headache. But I also smoked the hell out of that cigarette.
Anyways I've decided to not smoke anymore after feeling so crappy last night, but was just wondering if maybe I was experiencing some of the effects of nicotine poisioning. Another time I had smoked probably 6 or 7 cigarettes in a row (was drunk and not thinking) and then puked my guts out. After that I did some research online and learned about nicotine poisoning. |

I didn't want to go all TMI on my answer--never know who is out there plotting someone else's demise. Anything (even tootpaste) can kill if taken in sufficient quantity. It really sounds like your body is telling you that it cannot tolerate nicotine since this has happened more than once. It must have been a really scary thing to have happen. Since it seems like nicotine is an issue, you might want to talk to your doctor if you have difficulty in quitting smoking because it seems like you would want to be careful to avoid the patch or nicotine gum. __________________
