Good find, Joe. I keep telling everyone that Lamisil (antifungal) is the only

thing that has helped me. If you have a prescription, you can get Lamisil for

$4 at Walmart (under the generic name Terbinafine).

Subject: [] They Are Getting Closer To The Truth

This medical journal article, just published, comes closest to the recognition

of the truth that we have all known for years. Before you read the full article,

(Link Below), remember that Columbus thought that he had landed in

INDIA, when he got here. Only later, did others realize that he had discovered a

" new world " . These British and Brazilian researcher s have recognized the

importance of mold in causing illness.

sounds like the only ones that well get antifungals are the ones who show IgE's

to mold. that's not going to help the ones who dont.

in other words, maybe the reactive airway that comes from chemical

exposures/toxins,voc's ect.

it is good that they might actually start treating what they consider allergic

reactions by antifungals, might help, but that doesn't cover

everybody that has reactive airways from toxin exposure damage.

does it? couldn't get the full article so maybe thats addressed in there.?

Jeanine,

You are correct. One of the parameters for inclusion in this scientific study,

was having an elevated IgE number. Many people, such as myself, have BOTH a

toxic reaction to mold, AND an allergic/asthmatic reaction to mold. I am sure

that my IgE was elevated during my initial mold exposure, 14 years ago, before I

joined this group. The way I realized that something was different, then, during

that massive mold exposure, was that my asthma relief inhaler, Proventil

(albuterol), only reduced my breathing difficulty by 20 percent, and not the

usual 100 percent. Also, my breathing improved, when I spent a day out of my

office (the source of the mold), even if I spent a day in a high-pollen area,

which would normally GIVE me asthma problems.

I am emailing you, as an attachment, the complete article of this study. I am

also sending it to . If ANYONE ELSE wants the complete article, as a PDF

file, just email me directly: josephsalowitz@... Put in the subject line

of your email: " Requesting Article " , so that I don't delete your email as spam.

As far as the problem of getting the medical profession to focus their attention

on people who do NOT have an elevated IgE number, that is something that we will

all have to try to figure out.

There is a joke that goes: A farmer is having trouble getting his mule to move.

A second farmer, passing by, asks " would you like me to help you get your mule

to move? " The first farmer says yes. So the second farmer walks to the front of

the mule, and PUNCHES the mule right between the eyes. The first farmer asks:

" why did you do that? " The second farmer replies: " FIRST, you have to get his

attention. "

We have ALL got to figure out how to " punch them between the eyes. "

I have both too Joe, so it's all kindof hard to understand, I wonder if the

whole allergy,IgE, thing is a result of being colonized, negitive, of not being

colonized. after all what is really a allergy?

you get a allergy to something because of a high exposure to it, so you immune

system is reacting. if mycotoxins evade the immune system you dont react, dont

show IgE to those toxins, but there are some other toxins, chemicals you can

have a IgE reaction too, allergy.

I coughed up about a gallon of all colors of molds and mucus out of my lungs

after my exposure, it helped me gain some lung compasity back

but still years later I sometimes cough and still have some of these little

round white balls come out of my lungs. colonized or sespectable to

recolonization because of lung damage and poor immune system.

a doctor told me the other day that I had no signs of fungal infection and

fungal infections kill people really fast so theres just no way I had a fungal

infection. I said yep, if I didn't have a immune system left I'd be dead. I said

I thought it was very possable that a body with a immune system could fight a

fungal infection for years, another bad exposure and it might be to much.

so to me, a " allergy " is just really a reactive immune system attack to rid the

body of exposures to things the immune system reaconizes. think goddness for

that, I dont think it takes a high amount of mycotoxins and voc's to do some

serious damage to our airways,cells and organs and I believe that MCS really is

a hyper reaction because of the damage and the organs affected are the reactive

organs, which can be the whole body. stomack,gi tract,bowels,

brain,sinuses,eyes,ears,ect.

" allergies " and MCS, to different things, to different reactions.

and I really believe that mycotoxins are the silent killers.
