Guest guest Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 My Chronic Fatigue Syndrome doc is willing to prescribe CSM since it’s pretty clear that my 3 ½ years in a leaky home was associated with dramatic overall deterioration with my health, after previous improvements due to Traditional Chinese Medicine (mostly medical qigong treatments and individualized home exercises/meditations), herbal bloodthinners, long-term antibiotics, immune-system boosters, etc. I am now in a dry house, with HEPA filter in furnace, etc, still coping with the aftermath of the move, with a friend staying with me 24/7 to help me. I am a 51-year-old female, 160 lbs, ill with CFS for 10 ½ years, with a very long history of a) allergies (incl. dust mites, molds, foods, grasses) and intermittent serious infections from organisms that are of concern usually only to the immune-compromised. My MD is only ¼ of the way through Mold Warriors but already is very impressed and is talking about the book and Shoemaker’s diagnostic and treatment approaches with his partners in two medical practices. However, my MD is not clear on safe and efficacious dosing with CSM, since a) treating for mold toxins is off-label and my health is fragile. I have told him what a good resource this mailing list is, and he has asked me to request info from Shoemaker’s patients and others following Shoemaker’s protocol, re starting dose and schedule of ramping up or remaining on a constant dose with CSM. Anyone with this info, please contact me, on-list or off-list, and I will take the info to my MD and we will begin treatment ASAP. Thank you.
