Guest guest Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 Beth, I had many of the symptoms you mentioned. Numbness, tingling, flu like symptoms, dizziness, light headed, along with horrible fatigue, headaches, joint/muscle pain and more. Since this is a multisymptom, multisystem illness there is a lot that can be going on inside. The CSM should help but only a trained Dr. can determine what else may help. Have you ever taken the VCS test on Dr. Shoemaker's website _www.chronicneurotoxins.com_ (http://www.chronicneurotoxins.com) It is a very simple test, inexpensive ($8.95) and 98% accurate. It is an initial screening for toxic exposure. It is easy to take, just follow the directions and you will get your results as soon as you are done. If you need help with it let me know. Sometimes it seems a bit confusing to do but it really isn't just take your time and read the directions carefully. If you want to talk on the phone please just let me know. I'll be more than happy to call you. Sue Thank you Sue. I'm experiencing, have been on and off, tingling sensations in my face, nose, hands and feet that started three years ago. In 2003, I saw Dr Kolb in Atlanta who thinks I had aspergillus exposure from a surgery, I was very sick with flu like symptoms and more neurological problems. She did a few of the mold tests and thinks I got so sick because I have mold sensitivity. She treated me with antifungals and holistic things, I found out about the CSM and took that for a few months. I got much better. My family moved to Savannah in 2006 and everything started up again three months after we arrived. I am at a loss here. I have been tested for MS again, but all tests are fine. I sometimes have dizzy spells during the day, not too often. I have the tingling problems, but I don't know if this is mold related, although I am pretty sure mold is in my children's school and most likely at work as well. I live in Savannah, Ga, and this is the one of the moldiest places I have ever lived. I want to take the myelin sheath antibody test from specialty labs, but no one here has an account with them, so I can't get it done. I just did a few labs with LabCorp that I posted earlier , and the levels are a little high. My Msh levels have been 8 since 2003, and they haven't gone back up. I think I want to try the CSM again, just to see if it makes any difference. I could probably get my local doctor to do that much for me. thanks, Beth ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.
