Guest guest Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 Anita it sounds like you went through benzodiazpine withdrawal which I have experienced as well. When I went through it that was by far the worst thing I'd had ever had to endure but places a distant second to mold exposure. At least with benzo w/d you werent forced to keep moving until you found a safe place to live and you didnt lose everything you own. You could lay there endure the hell and focus on getting better. With either illness there is no cure and your left to wonder if the symptoms your dealing with will ever come to an end or if your life is over as you know it. I can so relate to the anxiety your experiencing mine is through the roof right now and it seems like there's no end in sight. I noticed that different mold exposures cause different symptoms. The last place I stayed out which had mold I experienced extremely bad tremors and some brain fog but my current residence where there isn't any mold but micotoxins my symptoms consist of brain fog, depression and severe anxiety. > > Sometimes a drug does help temporarily and if you can find one that will help that you can tolerate then taking it even just once or twice might calm the body enough to make all the cognitive and emotional work you do after that be sufficient to keep you feeling peaceful and better. In the past I took Xanax and it was very helpful and good for anxiety, but it is only good to take at most a few times. The health professional that used to treat me told me that all drugs wipe out gut flora. I know that after I took Xanax for two months I developed a lot of problems and symptoms, temperature problems, sleeping problems, cognitive problems, and eventually developed a slightly painful tremor. > > I have had so much anxiety in my life, and fear and panic too, it is so awful, and I hate to think of anyone else experiencing that. > > All the best and good wishes, > anita > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 It can be hormonal. I know of someone who estrogen levels went down to 0 while in WDB and still have problems.

Guest guest Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 Yes my hormones are super messed up. Also my situation which is the main cause of my anxiety and depression!!!! If my hormones were 100% i reckon id still be a mess. I assume there is no correcting of the hormones whilst still in a wdb??? If we cant take steroids for adrenals are there any herbs that would help?? I also just want to take this opportunity to apologise to anyone i've been neglecting on the email. Thanks for everyone whos given me support.

If we cant take steroids for adrenals are there any herbs that would help?? I have a holistic doctor who is sympathetic to my illness, and works with me as far as is possible considering Blue Shield stinks. She had me do the saliva test and gave me a copy of the results. If you don't have a doctor like that you can get the same test done at home w/o a doctor. They give the interpretation as well as suggestions. Of course prescription comnpound meds would be by doctor only but there are homeopathics that might also help. I also have had other tests done here as well: www.directlabs.com You can have gut permeability, hormones, , toxins, and hair analysis done. They also send via email so your results are on the computer. Personaly my hormones were low but the adrenals werre shot. You can take DHEA or homeopathics to help that and there is a host of websites about adrenals. Next I had to help the thyroid, then hormones. I think it would have been good to work on the adrenals while I was still in the building. Something to consider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 Mold attacks the pituitary, premature menopause could be pituitary tumor, mine was. First gyno said just early menopause at 38, second said I don't think so, probably a pit tumor. > > > > > > Dana > > > > > > I have not had a period since about Oct of 1999. I was only 40. I still have not experienced the symptoms of menopause. I do not think it is hormonally related. A doctor told me if you are too sick to reproduce then the body will not provide the environment for conception. It will also prevent you from losing nutrients and blood you cannot afford to lose. The body is smart and does everything it can to keep us alive and functioning, whatever that takes. > > > > > > anita > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 Took very bad medicine to shrink tumor for many years, then a severe mold exposure destroyed the tumor, only Shoemaker and Gray would believe me, but I have the before and after tests to prove it. Mold attacks the pituitary, mostly for bad, sometimes for good karen > > > > > Mold attacks the pituitary, premature menopause could be pituitary tumor, > > mine was.

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 Test your prolactin levels, if highly elevated, could be a pituitary tumor--benign, malignant, or just a few enlarged cells pumping out excess prolactin.... the latter is my case, a benign tumor a friend's case (she had it surgically removed and is fine).... If your prolactin is elevated, it suppressed female hormones which stops ovulation, stops or spreads out menstrual cycles farther and farther....doesn't mean you are in early menopause...this is what happened to me, I took a drug to lower my prolactin and was able to get pregnant again, after I got pregnant I stopped the drug... my naturopath says there are alternative explanations besides the conventional medicine ones for elevated prolactin. If your prolactin is high enough they send you for an MRI to rule out the pituitary tumors which are unlikely but possible.. Anyway, don't freak out, probably not a pituitary tumor but good to get it checked out, but the MRIs use gadolidium contrast dye as I recall, not great, avoid frequent mris i am intrigued to hear that you think mold causes pituitary problems, i had concluded that my mouth full of mercury fillings might be a factor, as I've read that half the mercury coming out of the fillings travels right up to the pituitary which sits above the palate. In my case my prolactin dropped to almost normal level after having my mercury fillings removed.... sue v. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 My pit tumor was caused by nasal radiation treatments I had as a child. I believe the tumor was destroyed by the acute mold exposure. Was there one month, gone 2 months later. Had had it for over 15 years. > > Test your prolactin levels, if highly elevated, could be a pituitary > tumor--benign, malignant, or just a few enlarged cells pumping out > excess prolactin.... the latter is my case, a benign tumor a friend's > case (she had it surgically removed and is fine).... > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 I would not use any contrast dyes, nor would recommend for anyone here but that is an individual medical choice they must make. Contrast dyes gladolium is causing illness/ death especially in renal patients on dialysis and their is a law suit out. The others contain heavy metals which if you have a chemical intolerance can cause more problems.

Guest guest Posted February 22, 2011 Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 I just had a large, long term benign, but complicated pituitary tumor removed. If you're having adrenal function problems, have an MRI or CT done on the pituitary gland. Before this was diagnosed, it had become life threatening. Please give me the source of the info relating to mold/pituitary problems. Thanks.
