observation on survey of PubMed articles

[Guest guest]

I found that most of the abstracts are focused (still) on the old methods of

surgery and

steroids, and putting it into the context of the term " allergic fungal

sinusitis " . These

doctors are ignoring the very valuable role of antifungals in combating fungal

diseases.

And seem to be completely ignoring the standard of removing the offending

substance.

I looked at only 3 pages of 16 that were returned on the search for the term

" allergic

fungal sinusitis " , so it is not an exhaustive review, just went back a couple of

years.

It will be interesting when some doctors get the idea of combining the

anti-toxin therapy

and the antifungal therapy, and see if they can get some positive results for

those that one

or the other treatment alone does not substantially help.

kl and others,

I assume below comment is in regards to CSM and antifungal medicine.

If so, makes me wonder if anyone here has experience with taking

antifungals, along with CSM (?), and was person able to avoid problem

of liver toxicity by doing the CSM at the same time??

Thanks barb-b

Hi, Barb,

I have heard of some people, but don't know how it worked out. I am taking low

dose

diflucan, and have not had any problems with my liver, been taking it for a year

and a half

now. I have not tried the CSM yet, though.

I have heard of people that have taken the CSM and have not had the best

results, so it

leaves open a question of an in body source for the toxins, it seems to me,

anyway. It

seems like it might be worth a try for people that fit the diagnostic criteria

for the

AFSinusitis, or digestive candidiasis.

Anyone tried it?
