Gastric Upset

[Alaman]

Hello.

My first post here. I've been inteterested in mushroom hunting and mycology for a couple of years now, but on Monday night I did something stupid. I ate a little bit of raw mushroom. I was hoping some of you might have some advice.


My friend picked some chicken of the woods on the weekend. I stupidly tried a tiny bit raw, as I thought he said he'd been eating it already. I was mistaken, and very stupid. So an hour later I starting feeling nauseous, though I put it down to other factors. I started tucking into the fried mushroom meal, but decided the nausea couldn't be ignored. Also I was feeling hot. I went and made myself throw up, which stopped the nausea, and feeling hot. But since then my stomach has been feeling not too good. This was on Monday night, so it's been about a day and a half. I assume that this is the allergic reaction/gastric upset of which many websites speak. No real pain, just discomfort and a bit of wind now and again. No other symptoms. As far as I can find out, polypores haven't been known to cause any deaths, so I wasn't too worried and have been hoping it will just pass. Wondering how long it should take to pass though?

Any advice appreciated.

Cheers

p.s. I know, never eat raw mushrooms! I don't know why I did. Curses.
