Guest guest Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 Doug or Anyone, Would you know if Is it possible for a woman to develop thyroid problems after they moved out of the toxic environment. I know somone that was in a moldy home for about a year and a half, just moved out this past October, had various symptoms after moving in which it turned out to be thyroid. Does anyone that doesn't show signs of illness while in moldy homes, get sick after they move out more or less is I guess what I am asking.

Guest guest Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 Most definately! If you want to check you thyroid function have a Reverse T3 test done- T4, T3 and TSH are not accurate enought to detect thyroid non/malfunction.

Guest guest Posted April 25, 2007 Report Share Posted April 25, 2007 Can someone explain how going this route (medical mycologist and fungal-oriented medical treatment) fits with Dr. Shoemaker's process and protocol? How are they different or similar? Have others done both or chosen one over the other? I'm asking for my own health concerns...I need to get more testing done and find some tx's that, hopefully, will work. I have suffered a few pretty severe mold exposures in the past and later developed MCS. Thanks for your help. You can reply to me off-list if you want to, Chris 4a.

Thanks.>> Darlene: > > Yes. > > Please allow me to explain it in this manner so that your question will provide assistance to others. 1) Just because litigation has settled does not mean that the discomfort of the disease in question will cease or go away. On the contrary pathogenic (disease influencing/causing) molds alive inside the human body are constantly living in an environment conducive to their growth and development into colonies that subtly become stronger and subsequently release more and more toxicity into human cells as they become weaker due to the chemical toxicity. 2) Just because a person moves out of a highly contaminated and infested home, school, or office environment into a new location does not mean that the microbes that have invaded their body have somehow been excreted from their body. What can happen and often does, is that the microbes (molds and bacteria) retreat to become dormant because they do not adjust well to the new environment and the human body regains enough strength biochemically to cause this reaction. However, if colonized long enough and strong enough in numbers, molds can and do subtly continue to affect our human cells but to a much weaker and slower (subtle) degree. This might take years in their decomposing effort to make their host (the human body) their prey, but later on as the aging process increases and the body weakens structurally, metabolically, and genetically micro fungi begin to become more aggressive as " opportunists " occupying our body. Remember, they are just doing naturally what they have done to turn organic life into inorganic live (decomposition into mineralization) for nearly two billion years... we are simply caught in the middle of their work. Don't be fooled if you are feeling better because of a recent move from a chronically infested and contaminated environment into a new one. Even human cells have to readjust to the new environment. Is this healthier for you? Yes, no question about it. However, my suggestion is to still seek medical testing from a qualified medical mycologist if you are still experiencing unhealthy symptoms. Once a disease is diagnosed as fungal-oriented, medical treatment is important as a followup.> > > Doug Haney> Maridea EnviroHealth Research & Consulting, Inc.> Email: DRH@...> > > > To: @...: darlenesb2000@...: Mon, 23 Apr 2007 15:07:56 -0700Subject: RE: [] Re: thyroid question> > > > > Doug or Anyone, Would you know if Is it possible for a woman to develop thyroid problems after they moved out of the toxic environment.

Guest guest Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 Dr Haney, others... Once you had hashimotos, and years of mold exposure, followed by removal from the exposure for years, can a thryoid heal? I was on 50 MCG of levoxyl, and now I want to lesson that or get off it altogether Is possible?

Guest guest Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 Lyn, If you are getting uncomfortable symptoms of hyperthyroidism, then you probably will want to cut back on your Synthroid to see if it helps. Is this a constant issue? It could STILL be the fact that your thyroid can swing between hyper and hypo, so this may just be one of those times. You should be able to adjust your thyroid dose accordingly. Just because the doc says to take " x " amount doesn't mean you have to stick to " x " amount all the time. That is the ballpark figure, but if you feel you are starting to have hyper symptoms, cut back a little bit for a short time to see if that helps, keeping in mind that if you have hypo symptoms again to pay attention and get your dose where it needs to be. I myself would feel really good at 0.66! That is the difference between everyone....we really need to dose by symptoms and not by numbers!

Guest guest Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 Hi Patty, Thanks for the response. Yes, the Hyper symptoms are constant. I can't sleep at all and it is flaring all other symptoms because I haven't got good sleep for months now. I have even tried valium and it will only knock me out for about 4 hours and then I am wide awake. I was up at 3 a.m. - bright eyed an bushy tailed. I am not tired at all today either! I need sleep so bad. I am going to reduce my dose. I see my doctor Thursday.

Guest guest Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 This sounds like it could also be adrenal exhaustion. That waking up in the middle of the night is often due to the adrenals putting out too much cortisol. You may want to investigate this further.
