I can't believe how many people around me got sick. I'm on paleo and I got really sick as well. One thing that helped me was to take a really, really hot bath, and stay there until I started to sweat profusely - I guess I was able to sweat it out of me. Once I did that I was able to break it and get well. I also agree with Todd - I don't think that being on a paleo diet is going to protect you from getting sick. Gary
