Re: I Can't be sick from Mold so they put me on Antidepressants

[Guest guest]

What part of the country do you live in? It matters because there

are some very good doctors who understand this problem in various

parts of the country. Also (and this is hard to swallow!) if you

haven't gotten out of your house you should be making plans. There

are some huge decisions to make to have a hope of getting well - or

at the very least, better. Step one, though, is do whatever you have

to do to get out of the environment that's causing the problem - be

it your home, office, car - whatever.

This is the right group. There are many resources here to provide

you with things to consider and resources to help with the decisions

you make. Where do you want to start?

Well, I went to a allergy doctor in La Crosse WI, as my allergies had made my

life

practically unlivable. At the testing, I became depressed from something, which

I

found out was mold. After I got back home, I was sick like I had the flu for

days,

which I later found out was more reaction to the , yes, mold.

I was having similar symptoms as yours. Mine were sinusitis, asthma, sore throat

due

to sinus drainage, very bad PMS, no appetite for years, depression too. Also the

GP I

went to locally, said I was hypocondriacal, depressed, & anxious, offered me

antidepressants, and sent me off to a psychologist. I don't know if you are also

allergic, but you sound definitely toxic. I had mold in my house too, and am

still

trying to get rid of it. Maybe you can look for an environmental allergist or

doctor.

They seem to have knowledge in this area. Good luck to you!
