I'm praying for ya Mad, I hope everything goes okay but going to the hospital might not be a bad thing if things start to worsen, as they could probably see what caused the allergic reaction with some test. I know you don't wanna go, but if you do go just say you were picking edibles and ate a wrong species by accident and they won't know any better. Do you know if you are allergic to any fungi or anything like that or possibly may have come in contact with something that could've caused this reaction.

Some people are allergic to mushrooms. Ive had no problem with these. If it is an allergic reaction the benadryl should help.

On the bright side, you are likely just reacting to the protiens in those mushrooms and your physical symptoms are being amplified by the trip. The benadryl should help fairly quickly. Drink some milk if you have some in the meantime, followed by a good amount of water (slowly, but purposefully). Lots of people have problems with different mushroom species becasue of the body not recognizing certain protiens, which produce a histamine increase. Just sucks, but you'll likely be fine. Staying calm will help symptoms abate faster (or at least not increase due to a rapid increase in blood pressure).

Alaska misses you too, brother. Wishing you a speedy recovery from the allergy (I'm sure it will be- most people who go in for an allergic reaction to mushrooms to the ER get evaluated and sent home with an antihistamine...). Best of luck.

Sir. If things haven't calmed down and seem to be worsening I would strongly suggest you pay a visit to the hospital.
If you're worried about medical costs then I've heard that it's possible to appeal a lot of medical fees; just try negotiating with your practice. Asking for reduced rates/paying in advance/paying in cash can also help reduce costs.
Best of luck to you.

Sounds to me like an allergic reaction. Reading about mushroom allergy symptoms they include rashes, hives and wheezing. I think you should ride off the trip and wait it out to see if the symptoms persist or recede before eventually going to the hospital.
Best wishes from Norway.

I've consulted with a Registered Nurse on this. If you want to treat the signs and symptoms you're showing so far at home with an antihistamine (Benadryl), go for it. You can also use Hydrocortisone to help with the hives. It would also be good to drink a bunch of water (not other things) to help flush things through your system.
If you begin to experience difficulty breathing, you need to get to an emergency room immediately. If you've been taking Benadryl, you need to *NOT* drive yourself. Get a friend or neighbor to take you or call an ambulance.
-------------------- Happy mushrooming!

A life-threatening allergic (anaphylactic) reaction has a very fast onset and can't be reversed by oral antihistamines like benadryl. Like ToxicMan said, you MUST got to the ER if you are having breathing issues related to an allergic reaction.

it's bee 8 hrs since the last post from him, hopefully he got some help.
Anaphylaxis is a deadly situation, but if oral antihistamines are the only thing available, take it don't wait for an ambulance or something to get you to the hospital, the quicker you get it in you the better and they can still give injectable antihistamines and corticosteroids.
edit: he's still at the hospital if he went, hopefully, we'll hear from him soon.

I don't know, the likelihood of anaphylaxis is apparently low since he's not allergic to anything to begin with.
What sucks is that his experience of the reactions might be overblown given he's already tripping, and could lead to a panic attack. In his situation I'd probably call a trusted friend who's sober and able to help.
His description of a burning skin sensation sounds familiar to me from some of my harder trips.
It went almost an hour from his first to his latest post in this thread, I'm inclined to believe that if his physical condition was severe, he wouldn't have managed to write posts over such a long period of time. I'm not a doctor though.
I hope he's fine and comes back on to tell us.

Anglerfish, just because someone doesn't have history of an allergy doesn't mean it it isn't there, some allergies develop over years and some are immediately apparent. I have seen this firsthand, some people can have mild symptoms over years and not recognize it as an allergic response, but all the sudden it rears its head and then it's full blown anaphylaxis. This happens with bee stings occasionally, sometimes it takes several exposures to become life threatening. That is why it's recommended to carry an epi kit once an allergy is detected.
edit: in reference to the time frame you mentioned, it's not usual for slow onset, it depends on his bodies reaction and how it starts producing histamines.
