Default Oil of Orgeno and respitory illness?

can Wild Oil of Oregano bring on illness? I took the drops for about 2 weeks and then was felled by a wild bout of the nastiest respitory illness i can remember. It came out of nowhere and knocked me flat in about 2 hours. I felt fine and then 2 hours later, i was sick as dog. I'm still fighting it a week later and the head, ear and chest congestion is unbelievable!

Was this caused by the OOO? I stopped taking it when i got sick, should i have kept going with it?

Do you take any vitamin D3? That's supposed to help a lot.

Often you might get flu like symptoms while first taking OOO. That's the OOO doing its job of clearing the nasties out of your system. The toxins have to come out some way and often it comes out of one orifice or another.

I would. And while you're doing so, drink a lot of water.
