Does anyone know much about nicotine poisoning? Back in high school we had a big senior prom party and I chain-smoked nearly 2 packs of camel lights over the course of a few hours. Of course, very soon afterwards I was violently sick, and I didn't really recover until the following Monday. So last week I was outside smoking, and we needed to kill a little time, so I lit up another cigarette, bringing to total smoked in about 10 mins was 2. I went back inside and promptly got rid of what I had eaten for lunch. I was pretty weak and couldn't really stand or walk for about 30 mins after. I know the feeling and I know it was nicotine poisoning.. but I couldn't believe it could happen from just 2 cigerettes.

Is it possible that after I smoked so much earlier in life (probably 7 years ago now) I have some sort of predisposition and sensitivity to nicotine?

I saw a documentary once about alcohol repulsion. People who had a really big intoxicating time with some (be it wine or beers or whatever) couldn't even touch the bottle any more. Natural reaction of the body to the stuff that hurt it. Pretty neat.
Nicotine doesn't seem to be the most dangerous substance in a cigarette.
Oh and try giving up smoking.

Same thing can happen with food. Lets say you're 10 and you eat oysters for the first time. Earlier in the day, you ate some undercooked pork but you didn't notice anything was wrong. An hour after you eat the oysters, you become violently ill, and you immediately blame the oysters, the new food introduced into your diet. For the rest of your life, eating oysters causes you to feel ill, even though there is no physiological basis, its a defense mechanism in your brain to protect you from poisonous foods. Same thing probably happened with the cigarettes that you smoked.
