Following up - Comparing mycotoxin test results before and after treatments

January 15, 2010

Many people asked me to follow up on this so I thought I'd share with

everyone my recent mycotoxin test results before and after a year of

glutathione, following the Pall protocol, taking CSM and antifungals.

My exposure to toxic mold was in 2002. I lived in a very bad toxic mold

house for 6 months and carried contaminated belongings around for a few

years. I developed severe MCS and hyper mold sensitivities.

In 2004 at Dr. Rae's clinic, I had extremely high (in the 5000 range) level

of antibodies to tricothecenes.

I spent years doing sauna, IV, glutathione, supplements, diet, O2, etc etc

detoxing. I took CSM although not 4x/day. I did some diflucan treatment

for a few months.

In January of 2009, I had a urine mycotoxin test at Real Time Lab. It

showed that ochratoxin and tricothecenes were present over the " normal range "

of ppb

Over the past year, I took CSM on average 3 times a day, I was on diflucan

100mg every single day, I did ampho b and keto nasal sprays, I took lipid

glutathione, IV glutathione, IV Alpha lipoic, nebulized glutathione, nasal

B12, completely followed Pall's protocol, the list goes on.

One year later, I just re-ran that same test through Real Time Lab. My

urine sample sat in the lab for over a week not refrigerated before testing

(long story) but they said it would still test fine. I just got my test

results and they are the exact same as a year ago.

So now I'm wondering -

1) Is the lab test accurate/valid/for real?

2) If it is, is it perhaps only testing antibodies rather than actual

mycotoxins present in the body currently? (Even though they say otherwise)

3) If it's all accurate, then does this mean absolutely nothing works to

rid mycotoxins?

4) Does everyone have some that would be considered " present " even if not

exposed to high levels of toxic mold?

5) If my body has been healing, which it is doing overall better in terms

of being able to recover much more quickly after exposures to chemicals and

fragrances, then shouldn't my body be able to detox these at least some on

its own...which it clearly is not doing?

thanks

Jill
