Seek medical treatment right away if you have diarrhea, vomiting, blood in your vomit or stool, or intestinal cramping after ingesting unidentified mushrooms. Your local emergency room can replace lost fluids and address any mushrooms toxicity causing your symptoms.  In some cases, gastrointestinal symptoms can progress to impaired kidney function if you don’t seek treatment right away. Even if you feel embarrassed at having eaten a potentially dangerous mushroom, do not be shy about seeking treatment. Medical practitioners are only concerned about your health. Call emergency services right away if you notice an involuntary nervous system response, such as profuse and uncontrolled sweating or crying. These symptoms can occur as quickly as 15-30 minutes after ingesting a potentially harmful mushroom. Act quickly, as these symptoms can progress to visual disturbances, decreased blood pressure, or difficulty breathing.  Due to the potential for a rapid escalation in involuntary-nervous-system symptoms, it’s best to call for help rather than attempt to drive yourself to the emergency room. In emergency care, doctors can administer Atropine, an antidote that resolves most of these symptoms. Most people make a full recovery in 24 hours, but respiratory failure is possible without treatment. Seek emergency medical services for any central nervous-system disturbances, such as sleepiness or hallucinations. Ingesting certain mushrooms can cause severe central-nervous reactions, such as convulsions or even a coma.  Medical teams can provide supportive care for any anxiety and fluid-loss you experience. Typically these symptoms pass on their own without causing long-term damage. Notice any trouble symptoms, either mental or physical, that recur after you have seemingly “recovered” from your mushroom episode. Certain deadly mushrooms, such as those in the Amanita family, can cause a 24-hour period in which patients appear to improve before relapsing and experiencing organ failure.  If you have any reason to believe you have eaten an Amanita mushroom of any kind, don’t wait for symptoms to appear. Seek emergency medical care right away. Let personnel know what kind of Amanita you have ingested, how much you ate, and how recently. If you have any pieces of the mushroom remaining, provide them to the staff for analysis.
