I have seen cavaliers who had eaten mushrooms. They didn't vomit or have diahhrea. They kept walking into corners at first...over and over...into the corners of their x pens. Then they became twitchy and couldn't walk and that was followed by mild seizure activities. They were put on IV fluid, given charcoal and valium and within a day or so, they were normal. I think sometimes that they die, but these were caught immediately and all were restored to full function. Myra
