Spam[4] Re: Cross contamination

[Guest guest]

Sue, several years ago I talked with someone at Dr. Rhea's clinic on the phone,

she was very nice but I dont recall her name.

basicly what she said is ofcorse we get sensitive to what we were exposed to in

the WDB but also she believed that other things that were were exposed to at the

same time of our exposure, like particles from car pollution, that may be in our

lungs at the time,things like that we might also become sensitive to.

thats makes sence to me, I just dont see becomeing more sensitive to more things

unless your exposed to a high amount of something after your initial

exposure,maybe so if we get out and continue to have exposures to other

chemicals but I dont see that with myself.

from what I've realized sence my exposure I am reactive to the same things I've

always been reactive to with some getting better, some going away and some just

pretty much as bad as they've always been.

with me voc's from many things includeing mold exposures have always knocked me

for a loop, I cant even say that I tolerate many voc's better than before, only

that I've learned to avoid a lot of them and thankfully family has learned to

never ever come to my home if your reaking purfumes or you'll go right back out

the door because I wont take it very well at all.

I cant help the way it affects me which can be anywhere from makeing me severly

aggitated to stuttering and really not being about to say much at all and just

trying to stay standing.

maybe over all it's getting better, but some things I just dont care to test to

find out.

not long ago I thought I'd die my hair, the time before that I got through it by

doing it outside and keeping a wet washrag over my nose and mouth as much as

possable, maybe the chemicals in that brand weren't as strong as the ones the

last time, no matter what I couldn't take it and was outside, faceing the wind,

ect. I had to wash it out, and it zapped me pretty good. while I was outside

trying to recooperate, I knew my balance was pretty much non-existing, but even

after quite some time I thought I'd check it out and got on my grandsons bike. I

couldn't balance it enough to even get my feet on the peddles and off the

ground. at one point I finally went a little ways but I just started falling

over sideways, weird, I thought the motion of the bike and just setting on it

would be anough but it wasn't, I couldn't ride a bike because I had no balance.

just thought I'd share that story because it was just weird. the coughing had

finnaly stoped and I could breath again but it took along time for my balance to

get better. these kind of exposures just zap my energy and my day is basicly

done after one of those, that now is the main reason I avoid getting out much. I

did make a quick trip into kmart the other day, and it wasn't to bad, but bad

enough that I defences kick in and I caught myself breathing very shallow and

holding my breath alot, I do that alot. I quickly walked past all the xmas

stuff, it huts not to be able to go shoping exspecially at this time of year,

hopefully sometimes I well be able to do this again.

anyway, maybe I'm different but I just dont see becomeing sensitive to more and

more things, is it possable that we just start relizeing more and more things

that we are sensitive to? unmasking and realization, maybe?

it's been a long road but the thought of becomeing more sensitive to more things

instead of becomeing less sensitive to the things I'm already sensitive to ,

would be horriable.

I wondered for along time about weither we become reactive to more stuff or

weither we are just reactive to what we were exposed to which can be in many

things, exspecially with voc's.

I read a few studies that say we are only reactive to what weve been exposed to

during our exposure.

I'm thinking thats probably true, is there some studies or something you can

point me to that might show different?
