Compounded CSM

[Guest guest]

You can get compounded CSM without the " dangers " from Hopkinton Drug,

Inc. in Massachusetts. They can ship it to you. I got my prescription

from Dr. Shoemaker originally so Dennis in the pharmacy just called

Shoemaker's office and got the prescription number. I would only do

compounded CSM. I can't tolerate fillers, artificial colorings, dyes,

etc. in generic drugs either.

I had never heard that. I have GERD.

Some kinds of mold have in the past made my GERD get much worse. (The

kind that also burns your nose and eyes..)

Cholestyramine is nothing compared to what happened to me then.. I

could not drink or swallow anything. I was inhaling my own stomach

acid. It was an absolute nightmare. If only I had known about

cholestyramine them... it might have helped.. It took me years to get

to the point where I didn't have to elevate my bed at least six inches

after that.. (you can imagine what a pain that is)

I think it was Alternaria that did that to me. At least it does that

to lab animals...That was my first 'episode' and my GI tract has never

been the same since then. It completely screwed it up.

Cholestyramine is nothing compared to that.

I suppose that for somebody who didn't already have GERD, new reflux

that they had never had

before might be an issue- but my body often reacts SO much to mold -

that I consider the mild issues that

I get from cholestyramine to be a very small price to pay for the very

substantial relief from the many issues like

all over joint and muscle inflammation that mold exposure often gives me.

, do you mean an endoscopy with a biopsy? (the test you get)
