Back pain while on shrooms?!

Hello. I have ingested magical mushrooms on several occasions, and more often than not I will be attacked by a dose of back pain mid-way through the trip. It is not severe, but it is annoying. My back does not seem to hurt any other time. Have any of you fellow Shroomerites heard of a similar case?

There are a bunch of posts regarding this. I think mainly this back pain issue is a multi sourced problem.
First there is probably that repressed notion that acid collects in the spine, so people probably generalize the notion and commute it to mushrooms and psychosomatically get back pain
second psychedelics can sometimes cause a great deal of anxiety and therefore muscle tension in the back may be a result causing back pain. Not un common to those who have stressful days and need "knots" rubbed out.
hrmm i think that's about it.

it could be the fact that you are laying/sitting in one position for far longer than you realize. I also think that there is truth to the theory about just being tense etc. on mushrooms. Mine always hurts, but then I realize that I have been laying in a funky position for a while.

I usually don't get back pains also, but that happened to me before on several occasions when i was tripping outdoors in the cold...
This, i think, was because although it's really cold, i almost can't feel it when tripping (except sometimes when i remember it's cold)... So since i can barely feel it i'm exposed to a lot of cold which makes my back hurt...
My friends have gotten that too. But only when it's very cold and we're tripping outside.
This has happened with lsd also.
Can this be the case?

I have an arthritic condition with my back. I notice the complete opposite, usually I feel great for a day or two after ingestion, then its back to the pain pills.

One lsd trip the tension/pain got so bad in legs in back i had to just lay down.
