Did the Swami collapse before he was poisoned?
Yes, the Swami collapsed before he was poisoned.
Upon further review and research, I am taking this as the correct solution. The card does not specify whether or not Michelle was a doctor, but she did administer "smelling salts" that was laced with cyanide after she was called to him. Based on the cards, "Oxygen" is a close enough approximate as it was applied to treat the fainting. Johanna proposed a mixture for the hunger, rather than the fainting, so credit goes first to thomas.berubeg.
Standby for a revised case.

Fish Story
Solution Value: 7
The Case
Rick and Roy own a small fishing boat. They are spending a weekend at the shore, fishing by day and drinking in their motel by night. Saturday Rick returns alone in the boat, phones the police and reports that Roy lost his balance, fell overboard and drowned. On Sunday, Roy's body washes ashore and is taken to the coroner for examination. Police later find Rick by the motel pool and arrest him for Roy's murder.
The Mystery
How did Roy die, and why was Rick arrested?

Did Roy find a ring in the water? Was it Rick's Birthday? Did he covet the ring?

Were lifesavers found on the boat?
No, Roy was not wounded.
No, neither Roy nor Rick were disabled.
With names like Roy and Rick, I assume both had cool hats of some kind, but that is not relevant for the case.
Yes, Roy's cause of death was drowning.
