Dodgy Prawns - Help!
Discussion
I just cooked myself a Thai prawn curry. I used raw grey prawns as they are softer than using the pre cooked ones.
Anyway tonight I noticed more than ever how salty the prawns tasted. Even with the power of all the spices together with the coconut milk, the prawns cut through it all and appeared to taste almost bitter. They were fresh and in date.
Anyway I am starting to feel weird.. what should I do?

Two prawns are best freind and swimming around in the sea.
One is called Justin, the other Christian.
It's pretty boring being a prawn, so they were swimming around, disscussing what it would be like to be a shark.
"I'd love to be a shark." said Christian.
"Yeah, me to." said Justin. "It'd be a lot of fun."
"Anyway, I've got to go " said Christian. "See you".
So Justin is swimming home, still wondering what it would be like to be a shark, when he comes across a cod.
"So you want to be a shark?" Said the cod.
"Yeah" said Justin "Howd you know that?"
"I am a magic cod and if you wish it, I can make you a shark."
Justin though about it, and decided to go ahead with it.
The next day Justin wakes up and discovers he is a shark.
He decides to go tell all of his friends but when he gets to all of them, they run away. "No No!! Go away!!!" The they all said, even Christian.
So Justin is now swimming around, depressed that he hasn't got any friends when he comes across cod again. "Change me back" he said in desperation. "Alright" says the cod.
So the next day Justin wakes up and finds he is a prawn again.
He is so exited he goes to tell his friends.
"No! Go away Justin, you'll eat me!" says Christian
"No, you don't understand!" says Justin
"I've changed, I found cod, I'm a prawn again Christian!"

t the bed in a few hours time.
Just sit tight and relax. The thought of it is probably making you feel ill. If you have cooked the prawns well in the curry at a good simmer (over 70C for a good few minutes) that would have sorted out the worst of the bugs.
If you are ok after 6 hours I'd give yourself a clean bill of health.

Slightly off topic (ie - not at all helpful) but i recently had raw prawns dipped in lemon juice to "cure" them then dipped in wasabi and soy mixture. This was in Vietnam. Tasted great at the time but my bowels have not been the same since (and by recently we are talking nearly 4 months).
Good luck
