Ate random mushroom 2 years ago, possible future health problems?

First of all I want to say that what I did was extremely stupid. Before I was a stupid person and ate a wild mushroom which my friend had told me was magic and had bought from his dealer. At the time, I was on a trip in south america in the jungle and my friend had apparently picked a wild mushroom off of the jungle floor that was all a deep dark purple color. Being new to mushrooms, I did not know this was not a cube. I ate a single stem and a little tiny piece of the cap the same night. Thinking I was going to trip, I felt nothing at all. I am thankful everyday that I did not die from being so stupid. But like I said, I did not feel anything at all, I never felt sick or anything in the hours after I consumed the mushroom. Also, I did not feel any strange symptoms in the weeks following the incident. Now my question is: Is it possible I'm going to suffer from liver or health problems down the road? I'm really worried and any knowledgeable posts would be greatly appreciated. Please don't flame, I know what I did was retarded but it was two years ago. I can't change the past.
Thanks in advance for the responses.

If you could positively identify the mushroom you consumed i am sure you would get some answers to you question.
In my opinion because you didn't experience any problems after you consumed the mushroom and that it's 2 years down the track you should be out of the woods.
Don't worry so much and spend time enjoying life.

I really wish I could of kept part of the mushroom I ate to identify, but obviously I dont know what specific species it is. All I remember was that it was about two inches tall and the cap about an inch in diameter and the it was a very dark purple. The surface appeared very moist. The gills were also very dark. Sorry if thats a bit vague, but its all I remember.

Since you didn't get sick in the first place it's unlikely that there will be any long term health effects.
Happy mushrooming!

Its very unlikely that what you ate damaged your internal organs in the first place. And if it did, then the damage is already done and you just dont notice it.
Man those are the coolest looking shrooms I've ever seen. They are to beautiful to eat.
