Fungal pneumonia
    #19242115 - 12/07/13 06:34 PM (10 years, 2 months ago)

So does anyone know if there are any documented cases of anyone getting fungal pneumonia from magic mushrooms? does that happen?

Someone please tell me it doesn't, I've started to get chest pains and fungal pneumonia would really be a bitch to explain and deal with.

So does anyone have any thoughts, ideas, or experiences?

wrong forum and other than chest pains, what makes you think you might have fungal pneumonia? Do you have a fever, chills, and fatigue?


"magic mushrooms" can't cause fungal pneumonia anyway. Things like Aspergillosis can

very few fungi can cause fungal pneumonia. I would doubt any mushroom producing fungi is capable producing that pathology any animal with lungs.

No there are no documented cases of pulmonary problems from mushrooms or Magick mushrooms. There are some pulmonary fungi though but there more classified as yeast and molds. Asprigillisis, Basidomycosis ,crptococctus and coccidiomycosis is to name a few. But all these are pathogens that live in the soil. People rarely get such diseases unless they have some sort of immune compromise or live in an enviorment where it is dry and there is known region  that these pathogen are endemic so the answer is NO

Sorry, I'm new. What's the right forum?

But yeah, in addition to chest pains, I've had a cough for a couple weeks now, recently had a fever, chills, and I think I've had excess fatigue, its hard to tell being a rather heavy pot smoker.

Could the substrate contain something that can cause fungal pneumonia?

Sorry, maybe I'm being completely panicky and paranoid, but these chest pains are rather unsettling.

Here an Idea go see a dr and get a chest X- ray. actually if you had an active case of fugal pnomonia you would have a feaver.  In answer to your question I supose the substrate could contain pathlagenic fungi but it would take a lot to get them into your lungs. They would have to sporlate by the millions and you would have to inhale them. Are you a smoker do you have HIV? really there are a lot of things that can cause what you are dicribing even the beginings of he Flu.

Call a doctor.  Just because a few anonymous forum users told you that it is most likely not fungal related, does not mean that the symptoms you exhibit are not real, just likely unrelated to fungus.

As for some of your other admissions:  Smoking coupled with changes in season can and do catch people unaware and can make them sick.  Smoking too much alone can cause these symptoms.

Please do yourself a solid, and call a physician before what you have gets worse.  I spent 5 bedridden weeks in the winter of 2002 with a very very bad case of pneumonia.  I refused to acknowledge that my simple cold was serious, and put up with it for weeks before it literally tried to kill me.  I was very very close to spending my holidays in intensive care for dehydration.

:whathesaid: Just got over a horrible case of Bronchitis which I tried to just ignore as well. Pretty much took me a month to get over it and some extremely potent antibiotics and a couch syrup that had so much codeine and psudeo that I felt like I was back on the meth again.

Moral is get yourself looked at OP

What are you basing this on? From what I'm reading, aspergillus can cause it and infected tubs can easily get that.

Aspergillus makes mushrooms now? Poisonous mushrooms sure pathogenic though? The only "pathogenic"(animal infecting) mushroom I know of is cordyceps and it's actually just a parasite

I was mainly talking about your first statement. Yes, aspergillus doesn't produce fruits, sorry. I think I had a bit of that in a tub a while ago. That's a scary thought. Glad I'm a young guy with what I assume is a healthy immune system.

a walk through the woods or a kmart bathroom exposes you to more pathogenic causing agents than your substrate ever will. it only kills homeless people with aids and newborns with shitty MS genetics.

It's currently about to kill a professional MMA fighter who was likely in a LOT better shape than I. But the woods bit makes me rest easy.

some people just have shitty MS genetics. some people die of a stroke when they're 27 walking down a street. there's no absolutes

I work with a big guy who does that MMA stuff and body builds. he looks like he could take on all of us at the same time. but we outwork him every day. MMA guy might not be the most healthy person on the planet in some aspects.
