Tripping while sick???

so I'm planning on eating an 1/8th tonight and I'm sick. i have a runny/stuffy nose, mildly sore throat, and a weak cough. none of my symptoms are too extreme but they are all substantially there and noticeable.
i was wondering if anyone had any experiences with tripping while they were sick. I'm fairly experienced with psychedelics and don't think that being sick will throw me into a bad trip or anything, i can keep my trips very lucid. i just wanna know if it creates excessive discomfort or anything like that.

It could easily go either way. From personal experience I have never had trouble while tripping in a less than well state.
Though, you should just be aware that any physical or mental discomfort could be amplified and you might end up wishing you had saved em for a better day...

i have shroomed when i had a stuffy nose and a slight cough, it was just fine. but if i had even the slightest sore throat, i would not eat shrooms.....becuase i fucking HATE sore throats. if you dont mind the symptoms, then it wont bother you.
id just save em though so you can breath clearly, i hate colds.

Yeah, I'd definately wait. Your immune system is already under assault and the fungus would not help.
-------------------- We live together, we act on, and react to, one another; but always and in all circumstances we are by ourselves. The martyrs go hand in hand into the arena; they are crucified alone. Embraced, the lovers desperately try to fuse their insulated ecstasies into a single self-transcendence; in vain. By its very nature every embodied spirit is doomed to suffer and enjoy in solitude. Sensations, feelings, insights, fancies--all these are private and, ex- cept through symbols and at second hand, incommunicable. We can pool information about experiences, but never the experiences themselves. From family to nation, every human group is a society of island universes.

-------------------- After one comes, through contact with it's administrators, no longer to cherish greatly the law as a remedy in abuses, then the bottle becomes a sovereign means of direct action. If you cannot throw it at least you can always drink out of it. - Ernest Hemingway If it is life that you feel you are missing I can tell you where to find it. In the law courts, in business, in government. There is nothing occurring in the streets. Nothing but a dumbshow composed of the helpless and the impotent. -Cormac MacCarthy He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God. - Aeschylus

But shrooms have their medical benefits. The immune system isn?t always the main that keeps us healthy.
