Re: HLA Shoemaker genotype, blood titers to molds, and Lyme disease

[Guest guest]

While I dont get it I do not have an " allergy " to anything including mold, but

my genetic makeup and the hell I have been through since my exposure tells me

having an allergy has its own set of symptoms and none of them include the

symptoms that come with exposure of a person with genetics set up this way.

Nope, not everyone who is ill from mold have an allergy to mold. It is still

good to have the test to either rule the allergy out or to be treated for the

allergy. ICG positive does not necessarily mean you are allergic to mold.

I agree, it can be quite confusing!

No, not everyone. Some have an allergy response called " delayed

hypersensitivity, " where the allergic reaction is mediated through T cells, if I

recall correctly. Allergy shots are not effective for that type of response.

I guess I have a mold allergy since I have IGG positive tests.

I am seeing an allergist end next week, by the way. I want to see what she says

about all this. It's too confusing. Are we colonized with mold if we have a

" mold issue " ? Are our homes infested with mold that is making us sick? Are we

working in buildings infested with mold?

D,

 I'll have to check it out. It's for digital signals for HD since no more

analog or something w cell phones?

I'm sorry it's bothering everyone.

Kathy: Do you know if they have installed Smart Meters in your area?

People in Dallas are having a hard time since they arrived here.

From what I understand, it is a digital signal from the meters so that they do

not have to be read at the location. Throwing people for a loop here. D

Others can explain it better, but allergy is not what it is about for most. It

is about a toxic exposure. This might be a good example-- but if you had toxic

exposure to lead or asbestos or mercury, this doesn't mean your are allergic to

it. 

What many on the list are dealing with is a toxic exposure that causes a myriad

of health problems. An allergy could be involved for some, but is not the real

cause of biotoxin illness. So, you can have allergy tests that don;t even

register any issues with mold at all and still have the problems from exposure.

Hope this is helpful,Sam

Good point. You can be tested for delayed hypersensitivity through the Alcat or

ELISA/ACT companies and one other I can't recall. I do not know if these delayed

responses will respond to allergy shots though. The only protocols I've heard of

for sure are avoidance and then for foods to avoid also and go on a rotation

diet.Sam

Hever tested positive for mold, took allergy shots for a while. testing cost a

fortune, allergists know nothing about mold illness, don't waste your money.

Being ill from a toxin is not an allergy
