Does this man suffer from a form of mycotoxicosis?

[Guest guest]

While I was browsing a health discussion forum in my first language

(Serbian), I stumbled across an interesting message. The translation

is below.

-----

On January 5th I experienced a penicillin shock, and since then I've

been having great problems: ringing in ears (each day), vertigo, the

feeling I can't keep my head straight, and my neck hurts. My blood

tests are ok, in fact everything is ok apart from that I can't go

anywhere without my bromazepam. I am 26. Please give me some

explanation and help on how to get out of this hell. What is, in fact,

happening to me? And is all this due to that shock? How to solve this

problem?

Then there were numerous posts in which he was encouraged to visit a

psychiatrist and was told that, as a matter of fact, there was nothing

wrong with him (?).

This is his second post:

------

On that fatal day I had a strong feeling of suffocation and I went to

a hospital, they did all the possible tests then, and gave me some

sedative, and I got an infusion. They examined my lungs with

stethoscope and told me to go to the pulmonary section. The

pulmologist prescribed me injections (double doses). And then the hell

started: when they gave me the injection, I had a feeling I was

falling down, getting stiff and my ears started ringing. I implored

but I couldn't recognise myself, nor hear what I was talking, my heart

started beating faster and faster and I was seeing only black in front

of my eyes. They gave me some anti-injections and that's it - that is

how much I remember. I woke up and, sorry I'll say this, my pants were

wet. Somehow they helped me get to my home. The next day they sent me

to a psychiatrist and he just said that I had been given too large a

dose of injections. Since that second day till now I am very agitated,

I have a fear that I will die, I can't go outside so that I don't pass

out. And that's it. Every morning and evening I take 1/2 of bromazepam

but that ringing in my ears won't stop. As if I am in some kind of a

dream from which I can't wake up. That's it. Regards and those who

experienced the same problem contact me.

After that he was advised once more to visit a psychiatrist as soon as

possible.

Now, obviously he isn't suffering from exactly the same problem we do

here, but if memory serves me well he described anaphylactic shock to

penicillin, and penicillin is a kind of mycotoxin. He's not getting

better, so maybe he became sentisized to indoor mold as well? Maybe

someone on this list knows exactly what happened to him?

My hair raises every time I hear advice to visit a shrink when the

disease in question is clearly physical in nature.
