Guest guest Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 There is a good one in Atlanta Ga whose name is Dr. Tanner. I saw her once but could not afford to go back as my insurance did not cover much as it was out of network. I believe she may been able to help me if only I could had afford her. Who is the allergist you are going to? I am in SC too. --- llaci2003 <jjaksic@...> wrote: > I'm still looking for an Environmental type doctor > for my MCS.

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 I have seen every allergist there is in Greenville in one capacity or another. Some I left and some left me. None of them know anything about MCS. The only thing they could do for me would be allergy testing. I didn't opt for that at the time because I wouldn't be covered. But now my MCS has kicked in real bad. I went to see supposedly the best allergist in Columbia about the seriousness of my MCS. He had no idea what to do. Should have known by his moldy office he would be a waste of time. Maybe I'll try and find her email address and see what she thinks. Even at SCMU in ton, when I explained all my MCS reactions, they were at a loss for words. So I never bothered going out there knowing I'd come home without any help.

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 Here is her website: http://www.spherios.com/about_doctors.html I am in and have visited a few allergist in Greenville as well over the years. One of the best I ever had was there but he has been long gone. I also went to SCMU and I agree, they did not help me either! The doctor I saw is a professor but was so clueless, even on my sinus issues which most doctors do have a little more understanding of, he knew nothing and did nothing for me. He told me to use a humidifier! I was like " in a moldy house?? " I went about 3 times and stopped when my husband had to rush me to the ER here in town after a visit. --- llaci2003 <jjaksic@...> wrote: > > I have seen every allergist there is in Greenville > in one capacity or > another.

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 I heard he was good as well but he does not accept insurance and he is pricy but for some, that may not be an issue. --- <smarshwar@...> wrote: > Try this link to search for an environmental doctor: > http://www.aaemonline.org/ > Dr. Lieberman in North ton was recommended to > us before we > started seeing someone, but I am in the Midwest and > he was too far away. > > - > > > > > > I'm still looking for an Environmental type doctor > for my MCS.

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 That's what the problem is. I'd have to pay out of pocket. And then can they even help me. It's a dilemna. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 The problem was, I could never afford the doctors either. Until we got a new house, I felt I had to live with mold forever so now, I am thankful we saved the money for a house even thought the medical treatment would had been great. I still feel I can use medical treatment from an environmental doctor as my body is still full of toxins and run down from living in that horrible environment for so long. The one in Atlanta wanted about 1200 which my insurance did not cover. That is really too much for me spend. She gave me a prescription for nystatin to sniff up my nose in water but it only cured that one infection that one time. I have tried it on other infections I had since and they ended up being bacterial and not fungal. One thing she did state in regards to her treatment, she starts patients off sweating, I assume she puts the in a sauna. But, I know how it feels to want to see those doctors and can't. We are paying about 100 a week on my medical insurance alone and I can't go to some of the specialist that would benefit me as they are not covered in my plan. --- llaci2003 <jjaksic@...> wrote: > Would be interested in sharing your treatment.

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Like many people with Mold Injury and those that frequent this site, I have been to many, many doctors over the years - including Dr. Weil in Tucson, Dr. Rae in Dallas and most recently Dr. Shoemaker in land. While Dr. Shoemaker helped identify mold cause and effect his approach struggles to address MCS that does not improve by just addressing the mold. I am currently going to a leading expert in MCS, Chemical Injury in land who has developed a protocol for addressing MCS - that is now used by 100's of doctors. Dr. Grace Ziem and her phone number is (301) 241-4346. Her office may be able to point you to a doctor near where you are. You can also get information on her web site at www.chemicalinjury.net There are several doctors now using the " Ziem Protocol " in combination with the " Shoemaker Protocol " in order to address the Biochemical impact to the body while addressing toxin removal. In most cases the Shoemaker Protocol addresses the mold toxins, allowing your body functions to improve, then enabling your body to begin processing nutrients from foods more effectively and then the healing takes place. It is possible in a handful of cases that the Shoemaker Protocol could lead to increased nutrient depletion (in the very severe cases) thus increasing the levels of MCS.

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 , Just to back that up, not that it needs it but the University of Washington's Dept of Molecular science also recommends Dr Ziem protocol for MCS. Its a great article. it sites other protocols but recommends hers above all. Funny I just refilled my script for this and since the last time I had it filled she has updated it twice. FYI Key pharmacy in Kent Washington who compounds this protocol also provides CSM with out additives or sweeteners.

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Yes, of course, getting away from the mold source helps a lot. After 1 2/1 years of living in a moldy home in a moldy area of the country, we moved and I was able to recover about 75% of my health back. Never again would I be 100% healthy as I was prior to moving into that house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 No - Dr. Shoemaker does not test for MCS. He does believe however that low VIP measured by one of his tests may be a driver in MCS. Dr. Ziem was extremely concerned about trying to treat using VIP " Hormone Supplementation " to address my symptoms - especially with all of the things she found not right in her testing. Also, in my most recent Shoemaker testing my " VIP " levels had increased from the original " Not Measurable Levels " nearly to the lower part of Shoemaker's test range - yet my " MCS " is still extreme. According to Dr. Ziem, my test results show that I am of the worst 5% of patients she has seen. As for the term MCS - I have only used that term in this post because it is easy to spell and well understood. Dr. Ziem may speak to MCS on her web site but does not use MCS as a diagnosis. In my case it is " Toxic Encephalopathy " (Brain Injury), " Neural Sensitization " (Vicious Biochemical Cycles brought on by exposures), " Chronic Inflamation " (Brain, Kidneys, Liver...), " Severe Nutrient Deficiency " ....

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 Yes this is the protocol. Also - Perque makes a B12 tablet that disolves under the tongue that is the Hydroxocobalamin B12 you will need to take. It is called " Activated B-12 Guard " and you can get it through several on-line supplement houses. You will see on her web site that other forms of B-12 do not work to diminish the Nitric Oxide issues in the brain. She also states that B-12 is the most important deficiency then comes Folate and then Glutathione. In fact - there are a number of treatments for Autisim using B-12 tablets (Hydroxo) with drops of Folic Acid applied to the tablets and they are seeing tremendous results. > > > > Like many people with Mold Injury and those that frequent this site, > > I have been to many, many doctors over the years - including Dr. Weil > > in Tucson, Dr. Rae in Dallas and most recently Dr. Shoemaker in > > land.
