I just sent this to the rats and suggest that everyone write to tell

their story

(http://www.nlm.nih.gov/cgi/medlineplus/feedback.pl?from=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Enlm%\

2Enih%2Egov%2Fmedlineplus%2Fnews%2Ffullstory%5F27465%2Ehtml & lang=EN) :

Dr. Boggs is a criminal debunker of toxic mold syndrome. I have data

from a 6-year long survey on this subject along with my own personal

experience and research. If you continue to use this *Dr's* reports,

I'll continue to educate the public on the subject, although almost

everyone globally will soon be affected by mold sooner or later to

some degree because of airtight housing and work buildings. Corporate

and governmental America still do not want to take responsibility for

remediation of sick buildings or the dire illnesses and deathes that

have occurred because of same. It's cheaper and easier for them to

outsource than to do so. Well, even third world countries are beginning

to take legal action against this type of negligence and indifference.

For more accurate information on the subject, I suggest that you contact

doctors such as Dr. Shoemaker in MD, Dr. Marinkovich in CA or Dr. Schaller

in FL. There are many more good doctors who recognize the dangers of mold

toxicity and its carcinogenic effects. You may also want to read more about

it in the Bible in Leviticus. I can also give you a listing of scientific

researchers and authors on the subject. Pull your bureaucratic heads out of

the sand and enlighten everyone as to the REAL effects of toxic molds. Get

the facts from professionals - not debunkers!

Beats me. I don't know if it got aged into the archives, or they got concerned

about their sources, or what.

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Mold and dampness can cause

coughing and wheezing, but there is little evidence to

support the existence of the so-called toxic mold syndrome,

according to a report by researchers at the Oregon Health

Sciences University in Portland.

Toxic mold syndrome -- illnesses caused specifically by

exposure to mold -- continues to cause public concern

despite a lack of evidence that supports its existence,

researchers explain in the September issue of the ls of

Allergy, Asthma & Immunology. Several critical reviews have

failed to find scientific support for toxic effects from

breathing in mold spores as a viable mechanism of human

disease, they add.

Dr. Barzin Khalili and Dr. Emil J. Bardana, Jr. describe

the clinical characteristics of 50 patients with complaints

of illness they attributed to mold exposure in their home

or workplace. The patients had been referred by a defense

attorney in a civil litigation or by insurance adjusters

representing worker's compensation agencies.

There was no consistent set of symptoms, the authors

report, with patients having an average of more than eight

symptoms. Most patients reported a family or personal

history of allergy or asthma.

Three quarters of the patients had abnormal physical

examination results, the researchers note, with

inflammation of the eye or skin and congestion occurring

most commonly.

Thirty patients had other non-mold-related illnesses that

could explain most, if not all, of their mold-related

complaints, the report indicates, and nearly two thirds of

the individuals had evidence of a previously diagnosed mood

disorder.

" In fact, " the investigators write, " when the entire

history and objective evidence were scrutinized, a number

of well-established and plausible diagnoses emerged that

explained many, if not all, the complaints. "

In a commentary in the journal, Dr. Abba I. Terr from UCSF

Medical Center, San Francisco contends that toxic mold

disease is " the latest in a series of environmentally

related pseudo-illnesses " that include multiple chemical

sensitivity, also known as idiopathic environmental

intolerance, and chronic fatigue syndrome, which was

attributed at one time to infection with Epstein-Barr

virus.

" Since these authors have determined that the patients they

describe do not have a mold-related disease but are

nevertheless seeking compensation for presumed illness

through a legal process that has defined it in those terms,

toxic mold disease is truly a diagnosis of litigation, "

Terr concludes.

So I don't get if this is good or bad. Are they taking this off the

archives because it is not good info or they don't want us to read it.

Can someone clue me in. I guess it is that brain fog I claim I don't

have. :) I think I read all of it.
