If you search palytoxin on here, lots of threads including the one on aquarium cautions.

If you need links I will find them.

I posted 3 links to articles on it in this thread. Very good articles.

I would think heart palpitations should be checked or at least monitored as Nick said. Especially if your allergic to a lot of stuff.

That's the thing.....he is in T.O. and it STILL took them 8 hours to figure out what to do. I'm in the middle of butt####nowhere and I can't even imagine how long it would be. Did I mention it is -36 C outside?

Understandable. I am by no means have any experience in this but since this happened Saturday and you are still reading and writing, I don't think you are in any sort of critical condition. But still you should look into this. Maybe ask someone to drive you to a better hospital to another city? And try to drink as much water as you can (by "as much", I mean drink till you can't anymore); that's gonna help you flush out the toxins. Black tea helps flush out impurities in the body too. Sorry, can't really be of any proper help
