Thx for the info. I had heard the term se pasma la boca but being that it was in the campo and that they also say se le tuerce la boca I just assumed it must be espasmarse. Also, I have never heard anyone would die only that the mouth would go numb or twist or that one would go crazy.

Finally, given that hundreds of millions Americans, Europeans and Asians aren't affected by the hot/cold issue (just look at professional sports or standard first aid for heat exhaustion) I expect the reason Dominican's are effected is merely suggestion. In fact doctors now known that the mind is a very powerful tool in healing the body.

Below are some example of treatment for heat stroke from one of the premier health clinics in the world, the Mayo Clinc: Heat stroke: Treatments and drugs - MayoClinic.com

- Immerse you in cold water.
- Pack you with ice and cooling blankets.

Finally, hundreds of Americans die every year from heatstroke and I imagine thousands are treated as referenced and I doubt anyone has had any complications with their mouth to say the least.
