Re: Re:Steriods- New Basic Mold Research

[Guest guest]

In Dr. Shoemaker's book Mold Warriors (pg. 96 " Without ACTH, bad health

problems can be made much worse. I say treating biotoxin illnesses with

steroids is similar to " thowing gasoline on a fire. " and with good reasons. I

can't tell you how many biotoxin disasters I've seen, from optic neuritis

being turned into blindness to inflammatory joints turning into frozen joints,

when a physician prescribed steroids. Don't let anyone give them to you

if you're biotoxic! "

Steriods are used for inflamation normaly, but not a good thing when fungi

is involved. Its seems in to many cases they throw steriods out you to

shut you up.

up.  Lucky for me in the early months after my exposure I read on this group not

to take them.   I wonder if WHO (jeanine) could have posted that originally???

Dr Thrasher, You said one is at extra risk of invasive aspergillus infection if

you are on corticosteriods. Is that because corticosterioids suppress the

immune system? I have never understood why steriod are Rxed so much. Thanks
