I was REALLY sick. it took about 3 days to get my temp down to under 102. their solution to that was to have me sit in the hallway and drink ice water under supervision. I kept falling asleep doing that as well. medical care in the military has gotten a LOT better since then!

I take it you got the cold shower treatment, then? I hated that worse than the high fever, which if I recall correctly (it's been 43 years!), spiked at 104 or 105.
