Guest guest Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 Mold illness is not an allergy. Those shots have not worked for anyone I know. IMHO, food allergies from mold illness is caused by leaky gut from candida, You need Three Lac, candida diet, and rotational killing > > Thank you for your suggestion regarding CSM. In general I don't take drugs, because I do not respond well to them. Since some of my most severe symptoms are nausea and diarrhea, I don't think I'm a good candidate for CSM. I also tend to have low cholesterol, so I'm concerned that it would be lowered further. If anyone has other suggestions for food allergies triggered by mold, please let me know. > My food allergy tests have come back negative, but it may be because I have not eaten any of the things that I am allergic to for years. I could be considered as having a food sensitivity rather than an allergy, although to me if I vomit something out, it doesn't matter what you diagnose it as, I obviously can't eat something. > A environmental medicine specialist suggested I try LDA (low dose allergen) therapy for mold allergies.

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 allergy can be a part of mold illness, very much so, so lets not tell people it isn't. you can have both allergic and non-allergic sensitivities. > > > > Thank you for your suggestion regarding CSM.

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 I have just started LDA therapy here in Manhattan. My first shot went as expected and I'm hopeful but a little cautious. I started LDA because everything I was doing for my mold MCS had reached the end of its effectiveness. My Jin Shin therapist (who literally saved my life) and my daughter (a pediatrician) both suggested LDA as another treatment for the mold sensitivity. Supposedly I eed at least 3 shots to feel a difference so I can only let you know in 6 months or so whether this will be working. I'd be happy to share Dr. info with you-email me. What can I say-I am a little desperate. So I try everything.

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 thank you for the responses. please clarify what " three Lac " and " rotational killing " is. i understand that mold illness is not an allergy, but i personally am actually allergic to mold on top of having mold illness. positive IgG for mold - in severely allergic range. thank you. > > > > Thank you for your suggestion regarding CSM.

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 I am on a really restricted diet. It's mostly a mixture of a candida and macrobiotic diet. I don't eat sugar, processed food, gluten, diary, any additives, preservatives, food coloring, alcohol, seafood, etc. I cannot take any medication, due to my sensitivities, so I only take supplements, vitamins, herbs, homeopathic remedies etc. If you want the very long list of things I take, I'm happy to provide. I also do chiropractics, kinesiology, naet, massage, reiki, zero balancing, acupuncture, hypnotherapy, sounds therapy, colonics... I'm sure there are other things I've tried too. My digestion is much better. I don't want to gross people out, so I won't go into details... I do still experience nausea on a regular basis, which is annoying. Thanks. > > Momoko, > Can you please let us know what you have done, are doing, to heal and > restiore normalcy to your intestines. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 Fingers getting very tired, posted on rotational killing just yesterday. Look up Three Lac, bacterial enginerred by the Japanese to eat candida. Used to be very hard to get rid of candida, now we have this great probiotic. Here is what I wrote yesterday, If you are trying to get rid of candida, you need a candida eating bacteria like Three Lac, before they invented it it was really hard to eliminate it. Then the diet for at least 2 months, no carbs, no sugars. Then the rotational killing. Use three or 4 things to kill, up the dose of the killing product on each rotation. After 3 days the candida begins to adjust to the killing product so you rotate the product every 3 days. . Example, day 1, one clove of garlic with each meal, same day 2 and day 3 . Day 4 one oregano oil capsule with each meal, same day 5 and day 6 . Day seven one teaspoon coconut oil w/each meal. Then the rotation starts again with 2 cloves of garlic with each meal, and so on . For as long as you can do it before you level out. > > thank you for the responses. please clarify what " three Lac " and " rotational killing " is. > i understand that mold illness is not an allergy, but i personally am actually allergic to mold on top of having mold illness. positive IgG for mold - in severely allergic range. > thank you. > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 , please dont get on people for spelling,or not being able to locate the proper word they mean,in their mind,ect. you have to understand many suffer some level on cognitive/brain damage, we do the best we can. I do agree with you about over doing any theropies, weither herbal, med's, ect. in this case less is often better. practicing avoidance should be number one on the list, just like no protocals well help if your still liveing in your WDB, none are going to help if you dont practice some level of advoidance. we can talk about what not to do and what to do all day, it doesn't matter if your still being exposed at a level that keeps your body in a constant reactive state. and taking to much of probably just about anything may be adding to that constant reactive state, not taking away from it. massage and severe PNS nerve damage dont exactly get along. one thing most of us realize here is that what works for one might not work from another. > > Please, > there is no such word as chiroporactics.

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 I live in Queens so Manhattan is convenient. LDA is low dose antigen. Sorry about the initials! A good website for info on LDA is http://www.drshrader.com/lda_therapy.htm. I have to agree with everyone though-I'm not so sure this will work but I have not much to lose-I was sinking fast. > > what is LDA . I asume that it's Low Dose, something. I really dont > understand why everyone is using inititals, on the assumption that all here > on this list know what the score is. > Are you in the city? > scott > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 Hi Momoko, I too was plagued with diarrhea & nausea and have done very well with CSM. In fact, the CSM, normally very constipating to normal people, helped with the diarrhea a lot! Also, I'm not sure if you are aware that CSM does NOT get absorbed into your body. It stays in your digestive track and absorbs stuff ONLY. Based on my experience, I'd recommend giving it a try. Debbie H. > > Thank you for your suggestion regarding CSM.

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Hi Momoko- I was so lucky to find an enviro doc who did Provocation Neutralization for allergy testing using the SDEPT method. And also also her antigens were glycerin free/preservative free. Of all the things I have tried throughout the years, this is one thing that brought immediate relief and contributed significantly to reducing my total load. I knew I had inhalant allergy problems with the grasses, trees, dust, etc but was shocked at my degree of mold sensitivity. As you may already know, SDEPT stands for Serial Dilution End Point Titration. The allergist tests each irritant to determine the lowest dose that still provokes a reponse and the neutralizing dose is one point below that. It is truly individualized testing/treatment specific to that person. I also radically changed my diet by removing all processed foods and doing a strict anti-Candida diet for a few years. I got so used to it that I pretty much still do it to this day. That also helped a lot with my mold issues as prior to this, ferments were unknowingly a big part of my diet. It sounds like you are already connected with an environmental doc and am so happy for you. My enviro doc was the one who told me I had MCS. People with MCS often have intolerances similar to what you have posted about, with scented products like perfumes being a great offender for a lot of us. For those with MCS, reducing our total load is often a constant challenge as it is difficult to avoid the abundance of chemicals/irritants in our world today. I wish you the best in your quest for better health. Most of the awesome docs who have walked the journey with me got into their form of open minded medicine because like you, they too had a hard time finding a doctor to help them. My environ doc grew up on a farm and was the child assigned to spraying the fields as her main chore. By the time she was 20, she was unable to bear children. After she became a doctor, she progressively got so sick and could not find anyone to help her thus began her life in environmental medicine. My out of state doc picked up Gardia while in Africa doing missionary work and came back to the states at deaths door and could not find anyone to dx him. He is more a Lyme doc but because of his own journey, knows a lot about the environmental aspects as well. Unlike those before us, we are lucky to live in this day and age where we do at least have the various environmental clinics and practices with those who do get it. I feel so fortunate in that respect. Kathy > Thank you for your suggestion regarding CSM.
