Son got sick

Would anyone have any insight as to why my son got sick after eatin 4 grams of GT's? He got convultions, sweatin,numbness on his left side, cramps and lots of snot commin out his nose. He said he felt like his insides were turnin to mush and spillin out his ears. The ER ran his blood and it came up normal and they told him to see a neurologist if his left sided numbness dont go away. I observed all the rules of cleanliness and sterillity and my sons pretty experianced with all kinds of drugs. I grew these the same as I grew the others a month or so ago and he had no adverse affects from those, I even purchases the spores syringes at the same time, I used 3 then and 3 now so its from the same spores that I used when he didnt get sick(repeatedly). Any ideas as to what happened here? Thanks for any insights that anyone may have.

They may be contaminated. Did anyone else take them? I suggest throwing them out, in any case.
There could be alot of reasons, but that seems like the most obvious one to me.

I accidentally grew a batch of contaminated mushrooms once. They caused a minor allergic reaction in me and one other person before i got rid of them.

Howdy Dreamer. I didnt see ya up there. When the shroom is contaminated is the contam actually in the shroom or on it? Did they appear to be differant visually than non contam shrooms? What did the allergic reaction consist of? and Did ya ever figure out how the contam occured and what it mighta been? Sorry for writin so many Q,s but If ya got the time Id really like to know! Thanks.

4g is a lot. I have seen those exact symptoms in someone who ate too much before. All it takes is a little over the limit to cause a bad reaction for some people.

if your cake is contamed, the mushrooms themselves will be contammed all over..you can't just scrape it off. also catalysis is right..it could have just been a bad reaction. i've seen this happen to a friend of mine when we ate the same batch together

I'm not sure if he has ever taken shrooms before, if so, this may be irrelevant. Mushrooms are a pretty common allergy. To get back at an ex-roommate once I dumped some of the liquid from a jar of mushrooms into his root beer. He was in the bathroom shitting for HOURS. So yeah, mushrooms can cause allergic reactions.

It very well might all be psychologicaly caused by the shrooms. Convultions aren't unheard of. You should still go ahead, and make sure that the Dr.s check him out real good. It will help them if he mentions that he ate mushrooms. Altho depending on his age, you and him might want to consider never telling anyone that you supplied him with the mushrooms. You would most likely to do lots of prison time.
My trip went normally untill several hours in towards the tail end. Mucos started building up, and my tounge felt ichy, and a little swollen. My sinuses were also acting up. It really fucked with me because i knew that it might be from contamination, and that it could be the beggining of god knows what. I went and told my parents what was up, and luckily the effects faded out just as soon as they started. Another friend who i had given the mushrooms to reported a similar reaction.
I went to get rid of my casing, and found very tiny traces of a blue-green contam in the middle.

Thanks to all who cared to reply. He's 27 yo. He called me a li'l while ago and told me he still feels a bit numb on his left. He was wonderin if it was posible that he actually had a stroke while he was trippin and didnt know it. Now that Im thinkin bout it I guess they woulda picked it up in his blood at the ER. He told me he,s been eatin some pills like zannys and perks and he smoked some dust just the night before, I woulda stated this in my origonal post but I wasnt aware of it until he told me later. Mabey it had something to do with the amount of stress hes been under too. He also said a couple of the li'l shrooms turned into a spinach consistency and stunk real bad when he putem in his grinder. They were dried overnight. We both ate much groser peices time and time again earlier with no detrimental effects. I think Im gonna eat some tomorow if Im up to it. I wont eat them unless Im positively up to it. Thank goodness Im up to it often enoughf. Thank you all for the insights. Keep it commin if ya's think of anything elce. Much gratitude.

Red flag. Shrooms should be eaten right away when fresh, or completely dried after being picked. They should NOT stink. It might not have caused any bad effects before, but that can cause food poisoning.

Thank you all very much. He's feelin much better but he stil got the numbnes. He was over a while ago and he said he's prolly gonna go get a fallow up tomorow or the next day if the numbnes persists. I just took the remaining shrooms off the remaining cakes and the cakes all look good. We were discusin the posibility that the shrooms might have been a triger and not the actual cause of the symptoms. Thanks for all the kind thoughts and words.
