Yes, many people seem to have this thing.  My husband is an archivist in
an historical society here, it is a closed system, and they know it's 
sick building syndrome potential, if not already.  However, the 
artifacts in the library and museum are more valuable than the 
employees, and the temp, humidity etc. in the building MUST be kept 
stable and constant, different in different areas as well.  The 
photograpy/microfilm area is kept at 65F year round to protect the 
negatives...other areas are kept at a higher temp...
Building the immune system seems to be the best answer for this.  
Currently I am taking echinaea (can't spell), vitamin E, and I drink 
about a quart of orange juice a day.
