Guest guest Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 Mayleen, this is exactly what happened to me in 1983. The doctor that I finally found, after so many that didn't have a clue,  treated me with nystatin and a low carb /low sugar diet, along with a low dose of armour thryoid for my low body temperature... I was exposed to a school roof that had leaked and had water damaged tiles above my head.There was mold behind the lowered ceiling, bu they never repaired the leak, even though they cleaned the area with bleach.  My partner that shared the room with me didn't experience a thing. So now I know that I have the genotype and she didn't. ( I have had my test) There was asbestos in this building too and there were many deaths of young teachers in their 40's and 50's. But the mold absolutely suppressed my immune system. I do hope someone finds an article detailing this. BUT I am living proof of this happening. ( I was in four school s at the time and this was the only one that made me ill) I never was sick until starting work in this building. It changed my life forever.......and a pregnancy too Kathi Re: [] Re: Help : Candida Thrush  Yes. Suppressed immune system. I am looking for maybe a paper that has been written on this.

Guest guest Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 Hi Kathi, Sorry about so much loss of life. You got the point, A paper somebody write one please. It may help other Dr have a clue as to what may be happening to a person besides steroids, antibiotics, etc. That a WDB can have this effect on a human body by suppressing the immune system. They maybe these uneducated physicians can have a clue as to what maybe making a person ill. I too am an example, living proof of Candida Thrush and I have 2 others due to suppression of the immune system in a WDB. Exactly what happened to me. 2 years of Dr's telling them I was ill, and I kept mentioning mold. They said no way mold won't make you ill. I had a thrush they could not even see. Starring them right in their faces. Someone please give them a clue..... Was it the first thing you noticed or got ?? So sorry, would you like to talk about the pregnancy or not ?

Guest guest Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 The sad thing about this..... after nearly dying from the pregnancy ( all my organs were failing and the twins did not make it and only lived for less than 24 hours) I was moved out of the building in 1992. I wasn't 100%, but I managed fairly well. I was Ok during the day, but was limited after a 45 minute drive to and from work and had to curtail evening activities. I managed because I had summers off..... which helped. Then in the early 2000's I was put in a basment room in another building. " You guessed it.... if only I would have known the room was getting me sick. I progressively got sick and sicker until I couldn't even walk by May of 2007. I only learned it was this room because the teacher that used the room after me also got sick in that room. Then a doctor caused a heart attack by overmedicating me and put me in heart failure. I got well only to succumb again. Now I am disabled. That is why I feel so strongly about getting the word out to doctors and have called the Academy of Family Physicians several times about educating doctors.

Guest guest Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 Kathi, I agree.............I had a Dr take away my oxygen I had had for 2 years because of ignorance. Not that I did not need it. He was prejudice against all I had. He even dismissed the tests he himself ordered. Little did he know I was so fed up of Dr I had recorded our conversation. I am going to go to his office and give him the shame of his life that he so deserves for nearly killing me. My saturation was 82 by the time I got my oxygen back. I was weak and who knows what damage that has done to me. This is what we get out here in the ignorant world of Dr's.

Guest guest Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 Hi Dr Thrasher- OMG sitting at my computer reading your posting shouting " yo hoo " out loud cause this is EXACTLY what I have been trying to circle my mind around for such a long time on this topic. Ok so here's my question and hope you can bear with me here cause I know what I want to ask but not sure how to ask it. Ok let me try it this way... If someone has chronic systemic inflammation And may have a genetic or epigenetic signal problem Or maybe they don't have a signal problem If they do have the signal problem, are there external supports that a person can try in spite of the signal problem...a supplement, drug, other treatment? Or say the person does not have a signal problem yet has an obvious inflammation problem, are you aware of any suggested therapies that may address just the inflammation? Or can that not be separated from treating a dysfunctional immune system at the same time? I go round and round with my thinking of cart before horse or horse before cart when it comes to inflammation in relation to immune system. My treatment protocols have changed throughout the years...sometimes on bolstering immune system, sometimes reducing inflammation or sometimes doing both. Not much has worked until 2 years ago with the discovery/removal of a section of my mouth and jaw that was so infected and diseased that it was liquefied by the time they got in there. After years of targeted transfer factors, beta glucans and other immune type stuff, once this massive infective was removed there has been a huge improvement in my immune system. Makes sense since it's not in total overdrive fighting off this huge mouth infection BUT still not where I want to be health-wise. I don't know if I have a signal problem and even so, not sure which direction to focus on. Not sure if I should go in the direction of immune support, inflammation suppression or both. Hard to state what I am trying to say so hope this makes sense and if not, feel free to have a good laugh..lol....

Guest guest Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 This is another sad story, Mayleen. You as a patient were harmed, which could have resulted in more serious consequences. Life is precious and one must not take what happens to them lightly.  I suggest you at least report this to the licensing bureau in your state. The bureau  won't do anything if one person reports something..... even three or four, BUT when the numbers start to creep up, they begin to take notice. It would be beneficial  to report what happened ,because it starts to show a pattern.  Once there is evidence of a  consistent pattern.... there is more chance of the physician having a judgement against them.  The pendulum of physician  punishment has swung the other way in favor of the physician. I believe at one time it was in favor of the patient .I don't think either party should be favored, it should be balanced and fair. We must see that it come to the midline...with both parties being given dignified treatment and justice. We as patients must stand our ground and report abuses. It takes only a  minimal amount of time to write a simple report and file it with your licensing bureau. The caveat ..... the doctor may lose their license in one state , but then can go on to the next state and request a license.  However, I still feel that it is worthwhile to do due diligence and report abuse  when something like this happens to you, Mayleen.  If we as patients  do nothing..... then we can expect no change. I am not against physicians. I am against ass 2 ( squared ) medicine, as Dr. Shoemaker would call it. The Academy of Family Physicians told me they only give continuing education subject credits based on physician requests. If your physician doesn't request mold information, then they won't be as apt to formulate a course concerning this subject. If you are able .... ask your PCP or family physician to become acquainted with the subject of mold and ask for continuing education credits on the subject.  I must take a minute and give  credit where credit is due. I was over on the me-cfscommunity website a year after my heart attack and was just in the infancy of learning about CFS ( I never knew one other person with it..nor did my doctor) . Then I ran across and . Had I not heard what they had to say  about mold AND also learned that the teacher who used my room after me , which was in the basement, got sick too... I would have never put the entire puzzle together. I now have a very detailed anecdotal history of what my life was like before mold exposure and what it has been like after mold/chemical exposure. Had they not taken the time to enlighten me on the subject, I would not be on this group today. Trust me.. I had no clue..until given a few more puzzle pieces. Then I took those pieces and put together the pieces already in my possession. Once I did, it  became as clear as day.... Oh my goodness did it become clear.  At first I must admit learning about this was overwhelming, but once I got on several groups.... ......I was astounded. BUT  I needed the few pieces that were missing , which and supplied, to put the whole picture together. I nearly died twice and would never have had a clue or inkling as to why... First I lost the twins .....then the heart attack. Now I am wondering.... was this a part of my ruptured appendix that nearly killed me when I was three?? The heart attack brought me to cardiologists, hematolo gists, PCP's CFS doctors etc etc adnosium... Not one of these people told me about mold until I happened to be on a CFS website. I could have died and no one would have ever known  why.. I am the dreaded genotype....as indicated by testing last July.  Is this not disgusting or what?????It was a grass roots effort by two people that introduced me to mold toxicity.  Medicine and my doctors should be the ones to educate me... that is what I am paying them for. But sadly that is not the case and we must take this into our own hands..I have been into alternative medicine since getting sick in 1983, but even at that ...no one warned me about mold becoming toxic. This is truly scary, Mayleen. Kathi Re: [] Re: Help : Candida Thrush Kathi, I agree.............I had a Dr take away my oxygen I had had for 2 years because of ignorance. Not that I did not need it.

Guest guest Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Dr. Vojdani has sent me his papers on Th-17 T cells and chronic inflammation. He has suggestions on what one can do regarding this condition. I will forward his two papers to you directly. With respect to your mouth and jaw, were cultures done to determine the if yeast, fungi or bacteria were involved? Candida is a very interesting yeast. In its normal state (noninfectious) it stays in the yeast form and does its typical budding. However, in the infectious and invasive form it becomes filamentous and appears as hyphae. It is very treatable in the yeast state but in the filamentous state the treatment is not easy. Bacteria can also cause the condition you described.

I too have nearly died at the hands of ignorance (discrimination) seems they go hand in hand for me , someone needs to start educating them. It should be mandatory for Dr to take updated classes every year on new illnesses. Do not pass, no license renewal. It is done in other industries why not theirs.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 If possible I would like to see the papers. I suspect I am at the budding stage but can't afford treatment. I went to the best doctors when I had insurance and could afford. But husband had open heart surgery and now we owe 100,000. Wonder why most doctors don't know about this as with mold. I had my tongue cultured about 2001 or 2002 can't remember, it was candida albicans and I am allergic to it also. One doctor talked about being borderline imunosuppressive at the time but yeast won't hurt you he said. Even went to Dr. Johanning, but he resigned right after appointment so no treatment. --- In , " Jack Thrasher, Ph.D. " <toxicologist1@...> wrote: > > Dr. Vojdani has sent me his papers on Th-17 T cells and chronic inflammation.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Many of the people I know that are ill from water damage/indoor mold or even those with chemical problems have the yeast problem. My home that had mold had yeast as one of the samples tested. Also all the antiobiotics they give us. I had severe uticaria so they had to give me prendizone for several months not sure if that contributes to yeast. But also the inhalers can cause it if you don't rinse even though I rinsed good after using them. So I guess there are several things that contribute to the candida. Seems like there would be an interest to do bloodwork on all people with this illness and compare results-- but it would be too expensive. --- In , " Jack Thrasher, Ph.D. " <toxicologist1@...> wrote: > > Both Carl and I have gone over this issue several times.

I had severe uticaria so they had to give me prendizone for several months not sure if that contributes to yeast. But also the inhalers can cause it if you don't rinse even though I rinsed good after using them. So I guess there are several things that contribute to the candida. Seems like there would be an interest to do bloodwork on all people with this illness and compare results-- but it would be too expensive.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 I have got to get out of here. I have had three consecutive treatments for yeast and vaginosis and I am still in so much pain, still all symptoms. Back to the doctor AGAIN for more useless treatments. I have gained back a little of the 30 pounds I lost, so no cancer, but now I have weird, constant breast pain. Ladies, anyone willing to say if they've had anything like this? It's what I've read described in nursing mothers with yeast infections in their chest, but I'm not a nursing mother. How do you know--what tests are there--when candidiasis is systemic? If it's not one thing it's another--ear pain, eye weeping, nose running, itching. I'm sick of it. Sick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Many people , including my self , have had great luck using Three Lac probiotic. It was engineered to scour the intestines and target candida, and it worked for me. > > Many of the people I know that are ill from water damage/indoor mold or even those with chemical problems have the yeast problem. > > My home that had mold had yeast as one of the samples tested.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 if your talking about sore niples and swelled breast, yes, I had those symptoms .. > > I have got to get out of here.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 My beast pain is clogged lymph, worse in the left breast as there is more lymph there. Not drinking milk products of any kind helps as milk products clog lymph. If I take ALA IV treatment, it goes away and I can drink Kefir again > > I have got to get out of here.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 also a very small amount of leakage sometimes and feverish. I also get soreness off and on with the gland in my left breast, some glands in other places too. > > but now I have weird, constant breast pain.
