Guest guest Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 Jeanine and Haley, amongst many other illnesses and symptoms, they had told me I have a retention cyst up near the orbital on the bony structure. I was suppose to see the specialist last week, but with snow had to cancel as it was a 2 1/2 hour drive. I will be seeing him on the 7th of Jan and he understands about mold victims, because my other doctor referred me to him. One of my many questions will be, what is in the fluid of this cyst. I am just afraid due to the types of molds that are airborne here, mucor, aspergillus, pencillium, rhizopus, cladosporium. no stachy that we know of but this is only in my place, Testing was done in some others, and other molds like Acremonium, altrnaria,ulocladium, and non-sporulating fungi. We don't know what is coming out of the HVAC in hallways, and lobby yet. And yet again we don't know what mycotoxins are coming out, that still needs to be tested.

Haley, I have sinus cysts, some are grape shaped (mucoceles) some may be polops. have you been diagnosed with vasculitis? small,medium,large vessel. id you have small vessal you also have medium and large. weither fungal vasculitis or tpxic vasculitis, same results. blood poisoning and periocide effects punches holes in the blood vessals, toxin,fungal ,particles leak out with blood, this is where cysts come from. abcesses,ect. in fluid granulomas. > > Just got the results of a brain MRI and have more cysts than I knew about previously... > > After my mold exposure, I was accidentally diagnosed with Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) from a CT scan of my abdomen looking at internal hemorrhaging that nearly killed me. I'm confident the blood issues were mold/mycotoxin related as I had three events in the two years I lived in that mold pit and I hadn't had any such issues in the 8 years prior or 3 years since (I'm prone to bleeding issues since I have an artificial heart valve which requires me to take bloodthinners). In addition to the cysts in my kidneys, I also have cysts in my liver, pancreas, spleen and on my spine. I get them under the skin on my scalp, as well. > > PKD is a genetic disease, although we have no known family history of the disease or of renal issues. I still have about half of my renal function left, down from three quarters when it was diagnosed (that is a WEALTH of kidney left, thankfully). The disease does not progress in everyone, but if it does progress, it leads to End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) which is treated with dialysis and/or kidney transplant. Lovely. > > Mr. Haney recently posted the link to the CDC article indicating that PKD is suspected by some to be triggered by mold/mycotoxin exposure. Unfortunately, the study authors are pretty much retired at this point and don't seem to be furthering that study. The kidneys they worked with had been removed, and since mine are still operational, I wanted to know if anyone was removing fluid from intact kidneys - sounds like that hasn't been done. I did get told someone is looking into the subject a bit at the Dept. of Aggriculture. > > At any rate, if anyone has any special info on the sinus cyst situation, I'd be interested. > > OR if there are any number of *us* with PKD, maybe we could work as a group to prompt additional studies on the mold connection (I keep dangling it in front of Dr. Hooper and hoping he'll bite) - I'd be willing to help write grant applications, although I'll warn folks that my brain is continuing to deteriorate, it seems. lol. > > Merry Christmas, > > > ~Haley > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 I have heard that sinus cysts may be a sign of aspirin allergy. I had had surgery on mine to remove bone that grew over the maxiliaries but no cysts even tho I am allergic to aspirin.

Guest guest Posted December 22, 2007 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 Alice, I do have an allergy to aspirin, but have not used aspirin since I was a small child. This cyst was never there until recent. Darlene Alice Frost <alicefrost1947@...> wrote: I have heard that sinus cysts may be a sign of aspirin allergy.
