Guest guest Posted December 15, 2006 Report Share Posted December 15, 2006 <http://www.gianteagle.com/healthnotes/Concern/Allergies.htm> this is interesting reading, but deals mostly with allergies, not sensativitys. i have come to the conclusion that allergy testing is also sensativity testing and you could show a responce to either one,or none at all, and it's basically pretty useless, scratch tests also. i've had scratch tests that didn't even break the skin, but caused skin rash from being on the skin, yet no attention was given to this. i've had repeated intradermal testing that showed allergies to all kinds of molds and to many things that harbor mold, yet i don't have the tipical allergy symptoms, which for years meant runny nose, sneezeing, maybe some lightheadyness, what ever, however i do have high sensativity to mycotoxins and there for often moldy invironments will affect me, to different levels depending on the level of mycotoxins at that time. and i think it would actually be rare to be exposed to molds without mycotoxin envolvement to some level wet or dry. heres something that really bugs me, sence pinicillin has been introduced as a antibiotic, it's been known that some people have a 'allergic' reaction to it. some people wear braclets, it's so bad. yet what is it? it's a mycotoxin. the antibiotic,pinicillin, that doctors have been over prescribeing for years are mycotoxins, mold is constantly mutateing to servive and try to do it's job which is to decompose. seems to me the combination cant be good.

Guest guest Posted December 15, 2006 Report Share Posted December 15, 2006 I never had an allergy in my life until I took a lot of antibiotics for lyme. Now I can't tell what will come up next. The list is getting very long and the itching, and watering eyes never go away anymore. Does anyone have this? who <jeaninem660@...> wrote: <http://www.gianteagle.com/healthnotes/Concern/Allergies.htm> this is interesting reading, but deals mostly with allergies, not sensativitys. i have come to the conclusion that allergy testing is also sensativity testing and you could show a responce to either one,or none at all, and it's basically pretty useless, scratch tests also. i've had scratch tests that didn't even break the skin, but caused skin rash from being on the skin, yet no attention was given to this. i've had repeated intradermal testing that showed allergies to all kinds of molds and to many things that harbor mold, yet i don't have the tipical allergy symptoms, which for years meant runny nose, sneezeing, maybe some lightheadyness, what ever, however i do have high sensativity to mycotoxins and there for often moldy invironments will affect me, to different levels depending on the level of mycotoxins at that time. and i think it would actually be rare to be exposed to molds without mycotoxin envolvement to some level wet or dry. heres something that really bugs me, sence pinicillin has been introduced as a antibiotic, it's been known that some people have a 'allergic' reaction to it. some people wear braclets, it's so bad. yet what is it? it's a mycotoxin. the antibiotic,pinicillin, that doctors have been over prescribeing for years are mycotoxins, mold is constantly mutateing to servive and try to do it's job which is to decompose. seems to me the combination cant be good.

Guest guest Posted December 16, 2006 Report Share Posted December 16, 2006 Edy I have a similar history. 20 yers a go a Dr I worked for caught me looking down my nose at allergic and senstive people. He lectured me that most all of these people had one thing in common, a serious illness in their past that started thier problems. A year or so later, I was bitten by a crazy dog while in the ines. They could not find the dog, and would not beleive me and would not write home to find out that I had already recieved the rabies series. When they tried giving them to me again, my immune system reacted profouhdly and the shots nearly killed me - just from making me sick by reacting to dead rabies. When I was ok 3-4 months later I had allergies. Lots of them. These allergies grew into a long list and included many chemical senstivities. I also almost never get colds or flu though. Now lyme and rabies have something in common, they are ricketssia. Very tiny little organisms, smaller than bacteria, but bigger than most virus. The fact that your body had penecillin toxin in it while you had lyme disease just shows you had a pathway for exposure to penecillin while your antibodies were primed and looking for something to kill. I doubt if penecillin has any affect on the lyme ricketsia (sp?)since it's job is to make baterial cell walls leaky. But what do I know?

Does anyone have this? > > I too have many, many allergies, although I had some before Lyme, as well, they have gotten tremendously worse since. My understanding is that part of the reason is that the antibiotics kill the healthy bacteria in your gut that help keep things in balance. Once you get out of balance, it is very difficult to recover. I also think that the toxins from Lyme are really, really bad - it's clear from Shoemaker's research that folks with chronic Lyme have extremely high levels of inflammation. For me, it's clear now that I had mold exposure before the Lyme, but it became absolutely unbearable afterwards. That may well be due to the low MSH, which is a controller of your other hormones. When MSH is low, then you will quite likely have a leaky gut which for many folks means you'll have lots of food allergies. I read a book on allergies by Braly and he explains allergies using the model of a bucket (Dr. Rea has a similar model that he uses to explain all these auto-immune reactions). Your body can tolerate so much until you put those last drops in that make the bucket overflow and then you start having all the reactions even to things that you might have tolerated previously. I also think Lyme is bad in that it will trigger autoimmune diseases for which you have a genetic predisiposition - like Celiac disease. I have found that alot of my allergies are reduced by following a gluten free diet (after having testing done that showed that I do have the celiac genes and elevated gliadin antibodies). I also found that dairy is an extremely huge culprit for me. I have many other food allergies that wax and wane - for example, if pollen is high, then I get oral reactions to things like apples and walnuts. B.

Guest guest Posted December 16, 2006 Report Share Posted December 16, 2006 .... > Now lyme and rabies have something in common, they are ricketssia. > Very tiny little organisms, smaller than bacteria, but bigger than > most virus. I'm fairly familiar with Lyme having and my understanding is that it's a spriochete and referred to as Borrelia burgdorferi and that this rickettsia is another co-infection that can also come from a tick bite just like the babesiosis, bartonella and Ehrliccia. Although, it does seem like the Ehrliccia is a type of Rickettsia, as well as Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. From the information that I've found that IS considered to be a virus. I bring this up as I've never heard of Lyme and Rabies having anything in common other than them both being zoonotic diseases. So, I'm just curious as to the sources of your information? I didn't study alot of biology in school (physics and other engineering sciences instead) and most of what I've learned has been over the past 3.5 years since I got Lyme, so perhaps I've mis-learned something along the way.

Guest guest Posted December 16, 2006 Report Share Posted December 16, 2006 My first experience with this illness I was very weak and had head pain so the doctor gave me Augmentin 850 or something. After I was finished the medication I had a severe allergic reaction all over my body (severe uticaria). They claimed I was allergic to penicillin. They don't test to see what caused the uticaria. Next was so many antiobitics, sinus surgery. I am now allergic to most molds, candida albicans, dust mites. I don't have the sniffle type allergy either and never get stuffy. But I do get a lot of thick drainage from the lungs and head. And of course the chemical problem. > > <http://www.gianteagle.com/healthnotes/Concern/Allergies.htm> > > > > > > this is interesting reading, but deals mostly with allergies, not > > > sensativitys. i have come to the conclusion that allergy testing > is > > > also sensativity testing and you could show a responce to either > > one,or > > > none at all, and it's basically pretty useless, scratch tests > also. > > > i've had scratch tests that didn't even break the skin, but > caused > > skin > > > rash from being on the skin, yet no attention was given to this. > > i've > > > had repeated intradermal testing that showed allergies to all > kinds > > of > > > molds and to many things that harbor mold, yet i don't have the > > tipical > > > allergy symptoms, which for years meant runny nose, sneezeing, > > maybe > > > some lightheadyness, what ever, however i do have high > sensativity > > to > > > mycotoxins and there for often moldy invironments will affect me, > > to > > > different levels depending on the level of mycotoxins at that > time. > > and > > > i think it would actually be rare to be exposed to molds without > > > mycotoxin envolvement to some level wet or dry. heres something > > that > > > really bugs me, sence pinicillin has been introduced as a > > antibiotic, > > > it's been known that some people have a 'allergic' reaction to > it. > > some > > > people wear braclets, it's so bad. yet what is it? it's a > > mycotoxin. > > > the antibiotic,pinicillin, that doctors have been over > prescribeing > > for > > > years are mycotoxins, mold is constantly mutateing to servive and > > try > > > to do it's job which is to decompose. seems to me the combination > > cant > > > be good. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
