Guest guest Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 Welcome to those of us who have developed freakish symptoms that are deny, deny, denied. My exposure happened in Long Beach, but I've moved out of state to cut costs since not being able to return to work. You picked up a copy of Mold Warriors yet?

Guest guest Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 Man, I KNOW the fixed income bit...lol. I'll have to look up the second book you mention - I don't recognize the name and am not seeing an author by that name in Amazon... A good number of people on the list believe that CSM described by Dr. Shoe in MoldWarriors saved their lives by getting toxins out of them. Dr. Shoe has shown that genetically, about a quarter of us don't make the antibodies that remove biotoxins appropriately. I'm pretty sure most of us on the list are folks in this category. CSM is a drug called cholestyramine (not sure of my spelling) which is approved for cholesterol reduction - it binds to stuff and gets it out of your system. I think the brand name is Questran. You can look in the archives of the list to find the Dr. Shoemaker protocol (if you search under protocol, I think you'd find it). There may be a less expensive copy here: http://product.half.ebay.com/_W0QQprZ50876776QQcpidZ1372795282 If you can afford it, there's a great doctor in Benson, Arizona who has helped a good handful of the folks on the list. My brain isn't working - I'll have to look up his name later. ~Haley gail <happyru@...> wrote: hi haley, i am in norwalk and no i have not bought any books, iv'e only been on the web sites. i may purchase mold warriors and the book by bonney l. matthews also at the end of the month. -- Re: [] New to the Family, hurt, sick and searching for help Welcome to those of us who have developed freakish symptoms that are deny, deny, denied.

Guest guest Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 Hi Happy, all the symptoms you describe are definitely mold-related. as Haley mentioned, many people on this Forum have been to Dr Shoemaker in land, myself included. his main protocol is Cholestyramine taken 4x/day. because you're a new member, i have to let you know that i've taken an alternative medicine approach in my recovery. at the peak of my illness, i had 20+ symptoms...and now i'm down to 2 " cosmetic " symptoms--regrowth of the bald patches on my scalp & eyebrow AND for my fingernails to look somewhat normal again. after much trial & error with different modalities AND taking a hideous number of supplements through the years, i've only officially recovered since June. if anything, i'm here to let you know that recovering is entirely possible. > > Hi everyone, like the heading says, i am sick and in need of some > support. i too live in So.

Guest guest Posted November 12, 2007 Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 Look into getting on the Cholestyramine pills and also getting ionic foot hydrotherapy (it helps to draw all toxins out of the body). Find out about other detox methods. I had alot of the symptoms you described but am getting better slowley but surely.

Guest guest Posted November 14, 2007 Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 just want to put in my $.02 here---i've done quite a bit of footbaths myself (started with Ionic Cleanse, then the Aqua Detox, which is much better than the Ionic Cleanse)...they will help with detoxification, but will not deeply detoxify you. > Look into getting on the Cholestyramine pills and also getting ionic foot hydrotherapy (it helps to draw all toxins out of the body).
