Re: Hypersensitivity after exposure

Hi Elly,

Try using plain distilled vinegar (about 1/2 C.) in your washer rinse

water. I sometimes also use tea tree oil - 2 capsful. I use tea tree

oil body soaps and shampoo too. It sounds like you also have MCS from

chemical exposure of some kind.

Elly,

Your reactions and the objects you are reacting to sound more

complex than just mold. While the mold growth exposure may

have triggered a broader and more general chemical intolerance

both must be dealt with, not just mold issues.

Fundamentally the best response is to remedy the harm from the

mold and make sure all sources of mold growth have been

removed. When you say " resistent fungi " do you mean it was

resistent to medical treatment or resistent to remediation in your

home?

In the meantime, be aware of, and avoid as much as possible,

the non-mold objects which now trigger reactions. Simultaneous

chemical exposures are often (but no always) confused with

cross-contamination of the mold spores, bacteria, and various

fragments including mycotoxins.

hi Elly, i experience the same phenomena. It can be hard to seperate the

chemical reactivity to the mould hypersensitivity which does make things more

difficult. However i've found that some reactions i only get when around mold

and not around chemicals. Pay attention to reactions you get outside of your

house and when you come back in. Theres probably a lot of places you will notice

your chemical sensitivities away from mold exposures and notice a difference in

the two, Many symptoms i thought were chemical turned out to instead be mold and

im becoming much more aware of what are mold reactions. If you can take a

holiday away from your house and see if you feel better that would be beneficial

as well.

If you do feel a lot better then worse when you return perhaps some greater

level of avoidance is needed than what you are currently practicing?? Hopefully

your sensitivities are mostly chemical, they are a lot easier to deal with and

escape from than mold in my personal experience and level of reactivity. It

would be interesting to hear if anyones sensitivity to mould has decreased when

away from exposure. I suspect we are all different in that regard as well.

Are you doing any kind of detoxing? It's helping me become less sensitive

little by little.

Maybe someone else here can explain what the mechanism is but I believe it was

working in a moldy room that started my illness and chemials that finished me

off.

Now I am not exposed to molds at home and I live in the desert where there is

little mold around me. But chemicals make me very ill. Fabric softener will

give me an instant migraine and weakness. diesel will make my stomach churn and

belch. Perfume will send me to bed for days. I can't say what would happend if

exposed to mold but I am sure it would be bad.

I work hard to avoid chemicals and no longer have that cooking feeling inside

or nystagmus thank heaven. But I still get the slows and tipping over feeling.

I have fallen over four times, just lost my balance. amy senses beome slow

around gas and I have had a couple fender benders. It is hard to deal with the

loss of confidance. I have a custom motorcycle in the garage I love to ride but

it is covered in dust. I used to scuba dive and my equipment sits there because

I am afraid of vertigo underwater.

I hope someday I will feel well enough to take up those sports but not now. If

I lived in a moldy environment I think I would be crazy. We need to do

everything we can to hange our environment and get better. Don't expect much

help as not many people understand.

hi khandalah,

it's really VERY similar. When I rented a new home, at the same time a new car,

and had new clothes, there were NO hypersensitivity anymore. I did this as a

test. I immediately recover and had 2 days of complete health...till I had

courage to wash my 'infected' clothes a secund time, for safety at another

location. Instead of getting clean these, my new clothes and my new reading book

get infected too, I came back in the 2days new home, I had enough particles with

me to get the symptoms again,also there, and even I was not able to stay living

and sleeping in the house I rented for a week. The company where I rented gave

me a 2nd house to live the rest of the week. After getting an 'infected'

newspaper from the house of my mother (where I cannot come anymore as well, with

same symptoms and heavy reactions on textile there) , the same happened again.

Even in the plastic key of a new car , after some days, I taste it. New pc's,

for example, in a library, new clothes, new things, are no problem.

I should have to start a new live nude and never look back to places, things and

people I know from before. Instead I hope to become stronger.

Probably specefic nutrients are missing. I hope my new doctor will help me in

research,
