Hi all. First of all, let me preface this by saying Alan never gets sick. He has PN of course but as for viruses or bacterial stuff, maybe one infection in 7 years. We take my home made colloidal silver every day and maybe that's why we never catch anything. Never do flu shots either.

Well!!! this is what happened this morning. He woke up at 5:30 (he never gets up at that hour) and waited till I got up at 7:30 a.m. so we could go a few doors down to Dunkin and have a nice breakfast. HE WAS ABSOLUTELY FINE. We chatted with people, he was fine.

Ten minutes after we get home he says 'I'm cold" THE MAN LIVES WITH A FAN ON HIS FACE 24 HOURS A DAY. I look at him and said "you're cold?" He said "I'm tired". He plops into bed and starts to get the chills and shakes (I haven't seen this behavior in over 20 years (maybe more). I said to myself "Maybe he has a fever?" I touched him, he was HOT. I took his temp and it was 102.6. I said OMG, I gave him an Advil and a shot glass of my colloidal silver. It took him a good hour to get to sleep because whatever was happening in his body was causing his neuropathy to go nuts. His PN pain was through the roof and he was yelling "My feet my feet". I massaged his back as I usually do and that usually sends him into slumberland. Not this time.

The weather outside wasn't helping either. It was very damp. FINALLY, after about 2 hours he slept a bit. I took his temp again approx 3 hours after I initially took it. It was 100.6. He said "I'm hungry" promptly got up and ate a tuna fish sandwich. I just looked at him because I could not believe it. Didn't give him any more advil or anything because he went back to sleep.

Took his temp at 5 p.m and it was 97.6. At 5 pm tonight, he ate a regular dinner, looked at me and said "I'm dying for popcorn" and made himself some popcorn. He is now watching tv. I'm afraid to go take his temp because he'll go "Leave me alone I'm fine". He knows that tonight we have to make sure and take his temp again because I know in some fever cases the fever goes up at night. He has absolutely no other symptoms. no sore throat, no ear ache no coughing to speak of. no nothing. Has a good appetite. It's like he slept off a flu in 3 hours. WHO DOES THIS? The reason I'm writing you is that 34 years ago he was hospitalized for a fever of unknown origin. They put him in isolation for 2 weeks because they gave him every test in the book and could find no reason so they called it fever of unknown origin. Never happened again. So, in all your scientific wisdom, do any of you know what kind of pathogen, whether it be viral or bacterial, and maybe the colloidal silver knocked it out?

Just touched him again and he's still cool. Never in all my born days have I seen a man get sick as if he was hit by a truck (like one does when one gets a flu), but then rebounds and eats lunch and dinner and seems fine.

I just hope it doesn't come back tonight. Of course I'll call Dr. Fred tomorrow if this happens but right now he's right as rain.

Do NOT understand this.
