Re: VISION LOSS and DAMAGE FROM MOLD EXPOSURE

January 18, 2011

RUSTEE, I haven't lost my vision yet, may be things to come in the future, but I

know that avoiding chemicals and other things I'm reactive too helps keep the

inflammator reaction from getting chronicly very bad and so has slowed down the

process of ongoing damage and hopefully delays the loss of sight.

after the damage has been done, many things can aggervate the inflammatory

process, it's not just about mold.

some of the symptoms are more obvious than others like blind spots, floaters,

blurred vision, headaches and skipping/jumping of letters or words while reading

but symptoms can also be less obvious like loss of comprehenshion (when

reading), memory problems; this is how I discovered my daughter was suffering

the effects of the mold, her reading comprehenshion dropped drastically then we

discovered she was having vision problems.... hope this helps!

All that I can say, is after I moved from the moldy house, I was still concerned

about how tired my eyes got when working, and just the feeling that I could not

see as well as I used too. My eye Dr sent me to s specialist, who took a history

and did lots of tests to rule out any eye disease. Then he said, " mold toxin,

neurotoxin, is very hard on the optic nerve. We have done a VCS test , which

will serve as a baseline. Keep taking CSM to bind out the toxins, come back in 6

months so we can test you again. " This Dr was in southern eastern shore MD, I

can only assume he was familiar with Dr Shoemakers work and with Dr Huddells

work. This was in 2002, when few Drs understood molds affect.

I now take 2 doses of Welchol a day, and CSM only when I take a hit, as needed
