Negative physical effects from high dose LSD?

Anyone else experience rough physical symptoms from high doses of LSD? Ive noticed a few things with 500+ mic experiences. First off it always feels like I have a hard time breathing during the come up. Usually goes away about 2-3 hours in but its like I cant get enough fresh air in my lungs to fully expand them. Kind of like what Ive read a panic attack is like but I dont have anxiety or anything. Im a smoker and get this feeling every once in a while when im sober but it seems more pronounced when on LSD and happens pretty much every time. I also seem to feel my heart beating fast and hard. Last time i could actually see my shirt moving from my heart beat. It makes me feel extremely unhealthy and makes me worry if it could be causing me issues though its supposed to be a safe drug. The other thing isnt as serious but I also get the strangest feeling in my stomach. Feels like a mix of nausea and being empty. Also feels like my gut wants to explode. Hard to explain. I usually find myself eating food to get it to feel better. I usually eat dinner 2-3 hours before dosing and maybe thats part of the problem. All of these effects are generally gone within 2-3 hours and the rest of the trip is cool. Was wondering if anyone has any of these negative physical effects or just me?

I've had the difficulty breathing sensation when I was a pack a day smoker. I think that's from being more sensitive. A smoker's lungs are always a little inflamed, I reckon the conscious mind just tunes the sensation of it out most of the time.
Not sure about the heartbeat, could be stress or related to the side effects of smoking.

For me the most noticeable physical symptoms are vasoconstriction and a gut purging via pooping, it really wrings/squeezes out my bowels, it can be a really good laxative lol. But really the only thing i don't like about it is the vasoconstriction, it makes my body feel weird and like my blood has a hard time flowing so my circulation feels constrained/constricted and sluggish, if i get a nice hot shower though i find that helps me feel a good bit better.

Sounds like to me your body is trying to make you aware of the damage the smoking is causing to your system so you can notice it and reconcile things before they get worse and worse. I smoke tobacco as well too, and am at the point where I really want to cut back because I can feel my lungs starting to be inflamed and struggle a bit and my heart beat faster during physical activities and I can't stand it. Yet on my LSD experiences, it has never specifically bothered me.
As well, 500+micrograms is a very deep, deep LSD experience and will show you things you may not be ready to accept. As in your lungs are suffering damage, as well as your heart - and there is some sort of limiting factor of your body being unwell before it can reach more divine states.

I think that makes a lot sense. Ive come to quite a few important realizations while tripping that have led me to make good changes in my life. Thats a lot of the reason why i continue to use psychs and find great benefit. The last couple trips have really spoken to me physically. Theyre telling me to take better care of myself. Eat better. Excercize. Drink more water. Stop smoking. Maybe even slow it down with the cannabis. Maybe meditate. Ive just yet to take the info and integrate it. I told my wife the day after this last trip that I was going to stop smoking soon. Ive had success vaping which from what I understand is at least a little better for your health. If anything its another step closer to quitting completely. I just gotta start and do the work. Thats a lot of tough changes. I gotta figure out where to start and get off my ass.

i have some of the effects you describe to a manageable degree on lower doses from 50-100 mics as well. i need to take deep breaths on the comeup. and i also get the nausea/empty stomach feeling. i crave vital food like fresh fruits, salads and high quality protein on the comeup... teas with lemon & honey also help
