I tried to get rid of my chronic headaches with mushrooms

I started to have one sided headaches 5-6 years ago. Since then my life has changed. I feel like I am only half of the person I was. These headaches a leaving me paralyzed by exhaustion. I have to lay down for half of the day instead of enjoying my life because of the pain and the side effects. My close relatives don't really understand my level of distress because this is not the type of pain that will have me crying or screaming. When we are meeting, I look normal, I don't complain. But the pain is there, they have no idea that I am probably thinking about how my life would be better without half of my brain while I'm eating the food on my plate. No meds that I was offered are working, from triptans to anti-depressant and opioids, nothing has relieved me.
Mushrooms was my last resort. I've heard rumours that they cure cluster headaches, they might cure my headaches. The treatment is 2-3 low dose of shrooms 5 days apart and it is supposed to cure cluster headaches for months to follow. So the first time I tried it was a typical lvl 1 trip, enhanced visual, slightly cold feeling, laughter, it was a good experience overall. I had teeth pain all the time i was high but it didn't bother me.
I took my second dose yesterday, I didnt trip. I was high but it didn't felt like a mush trip. I had lost my coordination, walking like i was drunk, my headache was back 10x worst with pain in my jaw on the side of my headache where i had to chew on stuff. It lasted for about 4-5hrs. I won't take the third dose.
Anyone experienced teeth pain while high on lsd or shrooms?
I will update to let you know if it worked or not.
UPADE: I was headache free for 5 weeks. It's the longest time I was headache free in years but I was expecting a longer remission. It started again three days ago. I took a coffee and the morning after it started again. I do not have shrooms left.
I am considering the option of taking the shrooms every two months. shrooms as to be taken 3 time on a course of 15 days. This mean I would have to take shrooms 18 times in a year. I am worried of the consequences it could do on my body.
What are the long term effects of psilocybin consumption?

I'm not a migraineur MedUse but my wife is, she's now enjoyed 5 years of freedom from the headaches, and it was mushrooms that did it.
As for your tooth pain you described, all I can think of is that I once experienced a feeling what I described as being like "electric teeth" not exactly pain but still unpleasant, also one rather intense trip had me gritting my teeth; its important not to do this because it can aggravate or bring on a migraine attack, says my Mrs.
I think your right on it with regard to timing the dose, my wife struggles if she goes more than 4 or 5 days without her medicine. As well as her psilocybin medication she also takes a prescription drug on a daily basis, its called Pizotifen, other names for it include Sandomigran or Pizotyline, she takes double the standard dose too, there are adverse effects unfortunately with this medication but at least she can live her life normally on the mushroom Pizotifen combo.
I urge you to try mushrooms again, and please remember its said that no 2 trips are ever the same, next time you may escape tooth pain while the headache gets blitzed again. Also try a Pizotifen regime and if your already taking the drug maybe ask you doc to UP the dosage.

Before mushrooms I would get real bad teeth pain were my wisdom teeth usto be and the right side of my head hurt so bad I would be crying, kicking and screaming.
I went to both the doctor and the dentist to get checked out and all they did was prescribe me Hydrocodone. I started taking mushrooms and I haven't had a real bad migraine in like over half a year.

I had to take my labret out when I started to trip on mushrooms a lot. The constant pressure on my teeth was insanely uncomfortable but only really bothered me when I was tripping. Are you aware of any jaw clenching when you are on mushrooms?

Not for me really. Only jaw clenching I've noticed is in a thought loop scenario, and I keep clenching my jaw

OP....have you seen a ear, nose and throat specialist?...If the headache is on one side and the teeth are on the same, you may have some sort of infection going on.

Have you checked for food triggers and other environmental causes? I've never heard of mushrooms causing dental pain.

Yes, I had a food sensitivity test done, I had a reaction to wheat, pork and peanuts. It didn't help for the headaches but it did help the bloating. I've also tried crazy stuff because I was so desperate, only eat bananas to only eat read meat for days. I've done vegan and gluten free diet too... nothing has really made a difference.
Anyways I'll make an update in a few weeks to let you know what was the outcome.
