Guest guest Posted July 29, 2010 Report Share Posted July 29, 2010 Jeanine, If I am understanding you correctly, yes. In lay terms they describe it as " sicker quicker " upon re-exposure and " inflammation gone wild " . Two of the authors belong to Sickbuildings, Carl & Jack. They could probably reply to this better than I could.

I have a question on this, because some dont have the reactive airways where they caugh with re-exposures and their airways close up, is that different than or not a part of the CIRS-WDB? is that a seperate effect or illness, reactive airway disorder or is that something that comes with more damage obtained to the airways from initial exposure? now sometimes I dont have this effect but have other effects with re-exposures but most of the time this happens. > > Jeanine, > > If I am understanding you correctly, yes.

Guest guest Posted July 30, 2010 Report Share Posted July 30, 2010 Bronchiectasis is diagnosed by MRI of CT scan which shows consolidation of alveoli. This also leads to shortness of breath (SOB). It is also an inflammatory condition of the lungs. Re: [] Re: 7.27.10 Research Shows Controversial Illness is Real ... Reactive airway disease is a chronic inflammatory condition of lungs.

Guest guest Posted July 30, 2010 Report Share Posted July 30, 2010 Reactive airway disease (RADS) is similar to asthma. It usually takes an exposure to cause SOB (shortness of breath). The coughing by you son most likely results from some form of irritation of the upper respiratory tract and throat. Is he having excess mucous production or what?

Guest guest Posted July 31, 2010 Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 he does blow his nose a lot and spit up mucus a lot. he has candida overgrowth in his sputum, about to treat him for that. at dr gray's he tested normal on lung function test except for small airways (fef75 where he was only at approx. 50% improving to 70% w/bronchodilator, which dr gray says is from mold, dr rea says can also be from chemicals and a breath test he did at dr rea's showed low levels of many chemicals in his breath so he is not detoxing those either.... dr gray put him on chromalyn sodium which he still nebulizes, xopenex which he stopped but is going to try again (he didn't notice that it helped) and nebulized glutathione which i think was more for detox than for the lungs, and dr rea says it can irritate and damage the lungs so stopped that for now anyway, need to take him in and get another lung function test to see that his lungs aren't further deteriorating. mostly he doesn't feel out of breath, but has a bit of " air hunger " that he is used to, tends to feel short of breath more when he has indigestion i think and his gut must be pushing up with gas and making him feel short of breath. wish i knew what to do about the nebulized glutathione, wish the docs could all get on the same page but of course that will never happen..... sue v. >Reactive airway disease (RADS) is similar to asthma.

Guest guest Posted July 31, 2010 Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 Respiration is controlled by two nerves: phrenic to the diaphragm and the autonomic nervous system (both parasympathetic (Cranial Nerv X and sympathetic).

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 It seems to me that rheumatology would be the speciality to deal with chronic inflammation. No? I am not aware of any rheumotologists well versed in this. It just seems like this is the specialty that should be. Am I wrong? Sharon In a message dated 8/10/2010 8:13:54 P.M.
