It does sound like it is breaking, just continue to drink hot tea with natural honey, lemon, and of course anything that is very spicy - spicy food improves your immune system and releases endorphins that will make you feel much better. <br/><br/>I'll call to see if you are better, or getting better any way.<br/><br/>Peace I hope you continue to mend, those South American bugs are a bit feistier than our average cold.

I really have no idea why, but you can either take the pill form or eat a bunch, make some soup out of it, but get a whole lot in (and a whole lot of sleep) and whatever's making you sick will pass a lot quicker.<br/><br/>Whatever you actually do I hope you get better like immediately!!
