Re: Hyper Eosinophilic Syndrome

[Guest guest]

Hi ,

From your reading, you may remember that eosinophils are very involved in

allergic response, as stated in your friend's letter. That however doesn't

guarantee that mold or other environmental exposure is the cause of your

friend's problem. But the possibility isn't eliminated either. Your friend

mentioned that she suffers from asthma and chronic sinusitis. A Mayo Clinic

paper several years ago suggested that more than 90% of chronic sinusitis

involves fungal colonization of the sinuses. Her doctor can sample intra-sinus

fluid and have it tested for fungus. If positive, the environmental relationship

to her condition would be re-enforced. And, as many of us know from personal

experience, prolonged exposure to high levels of mold can lead to sensitization

and initiate asthma or make existing asthma worse. Attention to personal

environment, at home, work, places of worship, businneses we patronize, etc. is

a good idea for anyone, but particularly for anyone mold sensitized or otherwise

immune sensitized.

wondering if anyone of you has heard of this disease and if perhaps it would be

related to environmental issues. Thanks a lot cathy

Make sure the fungi culture set for at least 8 weeks. Most labs don't run the

culture long enough. Also make them do a wash of your sinuses, a swab could

miss it. It did mine and a year later I blew out a chunk(dime size) of

multiple species of pennicilium. and they say it can't colonize............

a, How did you know what you had, when the penicillin came out?

A friend of mine knows someone who had a fungal ball surgically removed

from his sinuses not long ago.

Considering, up until the last month. very sledom did I have a need to blow my

nose. Lucky I cuaght it. I put it in an envelope. the molds attached itself

to the envelope in less than an hour and had new gray fuss growing off of it.

Dr Gray sent it off to realtime labs. It took over the petry dish in less than 2

weeks. They called it very aggressive.

Prior to it coming out, I had a lot of pain in that left sinus.

Wow, a.... Indeed keep us informed of how this turns out.

I bet you might find out another key to the puzzle. I wish Hopper would come up

with like a membership where you couold pay a certain amount and send as many

samples in as needed..lol  I know.

 

Good luck...

The puzzle is put together!! thats just more proof. We have the enviromental

report that closed the floor I was on 2yrs prior to me staying there. It was

anounced at a public meeting no less to the Time share owners meeting. Its in

there public records.

4 anti-fungals later.....Intraconazole is the worst!!

Is that what you were takeing when that came out of your nose? I dont know what

you mean about the time share? I thought your situation was something else or

with someone else but thats how great the memory is.

I was housed in a very sick building for work. (stachy,alternaria,fusarium just

to name a few) I was only there for 3 weeks. My duaghter got sick just from

cross contamination from my clothes and luggage and towels from the condo.

The toughest part about this is doing everything in your power to get better and

take care of a sick child while your brain decides to take a vacation becuase

of all the mycotoxins swishing and pumping around your brain.......

Man can I sympathize and tell you I could not do it. My sisters children have

been here for a week, leaving in the morning. I love them so much yet cannot

spend more than a few min. here and there without a retreat. This is a new one

on me because I have not had to be around any children for some time but I do

feel for the parents in this situation for sure.

There is a lot on PubMed on the various hypereosinophilic syndromes.

Many of them seem relevant to mold hypersensitizations.
