did you pick them yourself? Kinda hard for anyone here to say one way or the other. But if you did pick them yourself (or even if you didn't) there could have been some bad ones mixed in, and yeah delayed reaction is real but I'm no expert. Go to the doc. You probably should anyway if you've been puking for 4 days. You'll dehydrate if you haven't already.

I would have to agree with loopin, a doctor would be a GOOD idea.

Consider Orellanin:
Consumption of mushrooms containing this toxin has the longest delayed reaction before the appearance of symptoms. Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and anorexia present in most patient 12 hours to 3 days after consumption. In cases where poisoning was severe, evidence of renal damage occurs (burning thirst, frequent urination) may not occur until 3-15 days after consumption of mushroom. In mild poisoning cases, symptoms sometimes did not appear until 10-17 days after eating the mushroom.
There is a great deal of variation with respect to the recovery of the poisoned victim. In cases where renal damage has occurred, there may be a period of mild renal failure followed by complete recovery. However, in some cases, renal failure may occur and the victim will require lifelong hemodialysis or a kidney transplant, or in some instances coma, followed by death, will occur.
Species of Cortinarius known to have this toxin belongs to the subgenus Dermocybe. Poisoning from this toxin has so far been restricted to Europe where the species of mushrooms containing orellanin occurs. In Hawai‘i, there is only one species of Cortinarius, C. clelandii. Although it belongs to the subgenus Dermocybe, it is not known if it has Orellanin.

good luck man. On a positive note, it was a small amount of shrooms and you did trip, so at least some of them were potentially the right ones. Then again, if you bought them from someone it could have been mushrooms out of someone's front yard with some fucked up chemical sprayed on them. That's why I always pick my own and make sure to verify what they are....

Get to the doc. And make sure to tell him what you took. He can't help you if you lie. Sucks, but just tell him.
