Have the times your children got sick been from salmon from the same source or have you noticed the problem happening when they eat salmon in and from different places? The reason I ask is that I used to get sick when I'd purchase salmon from a local supermarket even though my roommate at the time could eat salmon from there without any problem. I've only gotten sick on it once when eating out however so most of the time it isn't a problem. Also, when I buy frozen salmon from Trader Joe's I don't have a problem. This makes me wonder if my getting sick had to do with something that the supermarket treated it with or maybe something the salmon came in contact with when it was raised (or encountered in the wild)?Kara
