Re: Different Treatments with different doctors

[Guest guest]

for some of us it is a GI problem, actually a mucosal damage problem

that can affect us all the way through. that same mucosal damage seems

to play a big role in the chemical sensitivity's/intolerances were ever

theres damage to the mucus linings. the article I just posted on

vascular intestinal peptide touches on this subject breifly. it's

mainly on oral tolerance, but understanding that the mucosal immunity

plays a big role in our tolerance to effects from foriegn invaders and

damage to the mucus lineings damages mucosal immunity and how this alsi

allows toxins/foreign invaders on into the rest of our sytems,organs,

seems very inportant to me. I don't see how anyone would not be exposed

and it not affect the GI, everything that gets caught in our mucus

flows one way. I'm thinking there might be some new info. out following

this report on VIP. if I find something that explains it better I well

post.

Cholestyramine isn't for GI problems in this case. Its for removing

mycotoxins from enterohepatic recirculation. They accumulate in the

bile and the bile is recycled by the body so in 24% of us, the toxins

just keep building up unless you use cholestyramine, welchol to bind

with them to remove them. Those 24% get sicker than the rest because

of the additional load of the toxins that never go.. But everybody can

get sick if the exposure is high enough. (VERY high..like

Katrina-high)

Curious if you are in the areas effected by the recent hurricanes?

Harriet Burge (microbiologist) implied in an interview the other day

that most sensitive people probably would have moved out of the worst

areas years ago, but that didn't make sense to me because how are they

supposed to realize what is making them sick with doctors like those

who know nothing about this and refuse to learn. Cholestyramine is

helping a huge amount of people, but its for mold toxin illness which

is characterized by a different set of symptoms than systemic mold

infections like candida. many people have both.

Personally, I think both are very common but the mold toxin illness

seems to be the one most associated with mold exposure in buildings

first..The symptoms are described on biotoxins.info and

chroncneurotoxins.com. If someone has been exposed for a long time,

(>= 6months) then they often get secondary infections which can be

fungal, viral, bacterial..

It depends on people's symptoms, what path they need to take.

mycotoxicosis and mycoses are two very broad categories..

There are some very serious mycoses, like aspergillosis and mucormycosis.

Those mycotic 'colonizations' typically localize in some part of the

body.. often its the lungs or sinuses, but yeasts like candida often

inhabit the GI tract..for example, the small intestine, where they

should not be..

If fungi penetrate into the brain (or bloodstream and become

disseminated) mycoses are sometimes very serious..
