Sorry to laugh at your expense but that was funny.
I can't imagine what it must have been like for you though. All I know is that a few years ago-I was smoking and wanted to quit so I tried the patch. I smoked a cigarette while wearing the patch and I got so dizzy and sick that I had to leave my clients house to go home. (Which is something I almost never do.)
I'm glad you're okay and stay away from nicotine!!!
