Coughing during a trip, possible allergic reaction?

Firstly, greetings to anyone who's still around since I last posted frequently. Been a long hiatus between mushroom experiences, but that ended last night. 
So, my girlfriend and I split half of what looked like a very generous 8th, and it turns out they were potent. Hit us like a ton of bricks, noticeably stronger than entire 8ths I've eaten in the past. About t+ 0:30, my girlfriend started coughing hard, what seemed like every 30 seconds. It alarmed us both a bit, since she was coughing so hard she felt like she'd vomit, even though she wasn't nauseous from the mushrooms at all. It seemed to correspond directly with the intensity of the trip, and accordingly lessened as we both started to come down. It by no means ruined the entire experience, but it was definitely something to overcome as far as not panicking.
Today we were trying to figure out what might have caused it, and as I was sitting down to write this she remembered that a year or so ago, her mother used to have violent coughing fits, and when she finally went for an allergy test, she was allergic to (among other things) mushrooms. This seems like an easy explanation, but I've never heard of it before, and I've read a lot of different peoples experiences with mushrooms. Just wondering if this sounds familiar to anyone.

there is an increase of mucus during the trip.
If the cough is DRY then that's something else
there you are NOT allergic to psilocybin

Yeah, it was a dry cough. I'm thinking an allergy to mushrooms in general is more likely than an allergy to psilocybin. She's gonna go get tested for mushroom allergies before we dose again, so hopefully it'll be cleared up soon. I also was thinking that if consuming the fungus itself causes it, maybe making some tea would cut out most of the material itself.

That's really weird that it was a 'dry' cough. I always get a cough when I'm tripping from the increased mucus production but it's never a 'dry' cough. I've also never had any type of coughing fit on mushrooms or L... it wouldn't be too bad of an idea to go check with a doctor or other health professional (like you said she is going to). I hope things work out for your friend; I think they will.

Hmm interesting when I take mushrooms I usually notice it's more pleasurable to take deep breaths and I end up yawning alot on nearly all psychedelics I take. It also makes smoking feel really good to breath in alot of smoke for some reason. But ive never noticed coughing alot before

I get the same thing. Pausing for a second and taking a deep breath on mushrooms is a fantastic feeling.. Especially if it's right after going outdoors from an indoor area. That was one reason I felt so bad for her last night; because of the coughing she was having trouble breathing, and it just seemed like that would feel terrible She held it together very well though, and we had an amazing time after we accepted that the coughing was definitely related to the trip, and therefore would subside within a few hours.
Edit: By the way, I appreciate all the replies. I'd forgotten why I love it here
