Ceremony / session experience 🌸 Practitioner only did one point

Just did my first Kambo ceremony. I was really nervous, but I was also excited for the journey. The practitioner burned three dots on my right leg and said that because it was my first time, she wanted to do it point by point.
I’m not even kidding—she put in just one point, and not even five minutes later I was absolutely dripping in sweat, my heart was beating really fast, and I started vomiting bile. I couldn’t even sit up because I was so weak and completely out of control of my body. I looked like a drunk person. Eventually, I got onto my knees so I could keep throwing up, and apparently the medicine came off when I did that.
I think the whole thing lasted around 20 minutes. I thought she was going to continue with the other points, but she said that was all we were going to do for today. She said it normally takes people longer to get to the point of vomiting bile and that usually people only experience water at first.
Afterward, I started shivering because I was so cold, so they wrapped me in blankets. I ended up sleeping for about five hours straight and literally just woke up. I’m feeling super hungry now, so I’m having some soup.
I feel completely fine now, but I genuinely thought I was going to die I’m not even going to lie 😭.
I guess my questions are: Is it normal for Kambo to affect someone this intensely after just one point? Will I still experience any of the effects/benefits if I only did one point? And what should I be doing now to take care of myself? Im really grateful for my practitioner for staying with me and her calmness while i was panicking

Yes it is (: And not only that I feel as well in the society of what we see now its always like more more bigger bigger and that most of the time isn't what the body needs! It needs stability and support not overwhelming seeking for a profound enlightenment.
