Very heavy feeling in my left arm whilst doing shrooms

I took 2.5 grams and I was walking with my friend to a party when suddenly I felt a weird snapping in my head, it felt like an electric zap. It happened two more times before we got to the house. The third one was so big that I actually shouted "AH!" and ducked, because it hurt. I was worried at that point because I was anticipating the zap, and that there was something going wrong with me in my brain. My left arm also started to feel somewhat heavy and tight, like someone had hit my funny bone. I was getting pretty scared at this point, and anxiety from the zapping thing and the arm heaviness became almost entirely consuming. We got to the house and my left arm still felt heavy and I was scared I was going to have a stroke or some other problem. Should I do shrooms again? I ended up being fine and having a great time but my arm felt odd all evening... what could this be?

Remember had you been walking around sober and that happened it would be very strange but luckily for you, you were on mushrooms. My non professional advice is to try to run with it. How many times have you tripped before? A stroke would be different then you experienced. Typically a numb feeling would overcome one whole side of your body, your face will droop to one side and you may have a floating sensation. Of course that is a full on stroke but if your going to stroke out you'll know. If you are truly concerned go to a walk in Clinic they will not call the cops because you said you tried mushrooms.

The top part of my head feels numb when I trip. Like I'm wearing a hat. It feels like a big hat. Happens every time when it first kicks in. I love it...

Quoting from the Western Journal of medicine.
"Clinical effects The adrenergic effects of these drugs are usually mild and can give rise to general sympathetic arousal leading to dilated pupils, tachycardia, hypertension, and hyperreflexia.
Although cardiovascular complications are rarely serious, [b]supraventricular tachyarrhythmias and myocardial infarction have been reported.5
Changes in serotonin-induced platelet aggregation and sympathetically induced arterial vasospasm may have been contributory factors leading to the onset of myocardial infarction.5" - http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1071198/
Lets hope more studies are done on the physiological effects of psilocybin on the body.
