Hey all ....
Got an odd one here for ya .
Do any of you out there have blood pressure problems and still trip on shrooms ?
I also am curious to know if there are any folks with diabetes that shroom ?
I ask this personal question in behalf of a friend who himself has both conditions , and keeps asking me and a medic buddy if it would be okay if he ate some . 
My medic pal has no idea if would be unsafe  , wants to come hang with all his equipment just in case  ( that sucks having a buddy who hooks you up to all sorts of shit periodically while you are trippin with him  , whole other topic there  ) and is curios to watch the blood sugar levels thru a trip .
Thanx for all the input in advance . 
Trip n D

i am a diabetic and have shroomed many times with zero negative consequences. the first few times i ate mushrooms i checked my sugar two or three times just out of general worry, but everything was ok. i would suggest him checking his sugar too--they effect everyone differently.

the diabetes shouldn't be a problem at all considering the fact that shrooms don't have an effect on blood sugar levels...and (as far as I know) the only thing that might *possibly* be a problem as far as the high blood presure goes is if your friend happens to start freaking out while he's shroomin - as long as he keeps his calm I don't see how there could possibly be a problem there either
but as with anything - you really should find some reliable sites on the net that actually have looked into this sort of thing from a professional approach and know what they're actually talkin about (as opposed to simply taking advice from someone you don't even know who quite probably is just taking an educated guess at best)

Thanks I do agree with you . As I said I have a buddy that is a medic (licensed the whole shbangy .....) who trips , he says he can not find any true documented info on the topic other than the fact that sometimes blood pressure elevations do occur with mushies (minimal for non heart stressed folks ), folks with arythmia should definetly steer clear in his opinon , but high bp he his only concerned about the same thing you say " if he freaks and cant keep his cool , he could raise his own bp so high he couls stroke out or have a massive heart attack . Then his next concern is drug interreactions if any , cant find any documented info on that topic either .
Lets be real the Medical Association does not check such things and are not likely to publish it either .

I have extreme hypertension(high BP). I have to take 3 meds to keep it down. I havn't run into any trouble. Just make sure you take your meds and your BP is stable. The only time I have had trouble was a couplemonths ago when I IV'd 75mg. of DMT. My BP shot up high enough during that that I had a headache later, but thats my own fault.

Two months ago I was pre diabetic and had high blood pressure. I started eating a vegan diet and exercising. Today my bp is 100/60 and my glucose level is typically around 90. I know a vegan diet isn't for everyone but if your health is at issue perhaps it should be considered.
