Guest guest Posted May 15, 2006 Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 , I wish I could help all of us with friends.. Maybe we could do 'meetups' in different cities, I don;t know.. , if you can, you need to get some big HEPA air cleaners going (or in lieu of that, 20' fans with filters on them) and also, if you can, start taking cholestyramine to reduce your level of toxic load. These two steps made a huge difference for me...at least.. And also n-acetyl-cysteine and alpha lipoic acid.. ...Trying to help... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 , I am sorry, I know what you are going though. I am looking for a new option, this 2005 trailer is worse than the boat I was living in. I see no mold anywhere (besides my shower curtain and my soap dish in the shower which scares me) but I am sick all the time. I really did not want to face it but I took a trip to north Carolina (near MT. ) and felt great. I could actually read books without becoming confused. I came back and it hit me just how bad it is here in this trailer. I was a total vegetable for two days didn't even want to talk to or email anyone or get out of bed I was so drained. I have to find another solution. I really have no idea what. Still thinking about the airstream. Maybe I could go to a campground and pitch a tent. I really don't know. I have to do something, I can't go on this way anymore. It's been ten years for me. I can't believe your brand new home is making you sick! Unbelievable!

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 (and ), What are you referring to when you speak of 'air stream'? Robt and , Could you and others that no matter how clean of an environment you are in, feel sick...could you have a systemic fungal infection? Has anyone done blood culture on you to see if you have infection like that? That would produce toxins in your system no matter where you are. You may feel worse some places if environment has anything in it that tilts the scale in your body to too much, when you may be constantly on the verge of having too many toxins already? Have you done sauna, CSM, vitamin C IV's, ALA or other things to detoxify? > > , > I am sorry, I know what you are going though.

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 It may be the the new stuff that the trailer is made of and not mold. I get sick in my mom's new apt...I am thinking it is the new carpet in her place. I can't even tolerate a house heated with gas heat...it has to be electricity. Our home has gas and I was finially feeling good again until we had a cold spell last week and our gas heat came on. We are moving soon but I can't find a healthy house that I can afford. I am really sick of being sick and not having a healthy roof over my head! I want to go back to work and have a life! No one wants to work near a person with a runny nose, asthma one day and throwing up the next..it never ends! Plus, on those days, I can't even make it out of the house! My illness of the day, pain all over, especially some weird pains in my stomach and asthma followed by a horrible up-set stomach yesterday...people were not meant to feel terrible forever! There has got to be a better way than this! > > , > I am sorry, I know what you are going though. I am looking for a new > option, this 2005 trailer is worse than the boat I was living in.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 Alpha-lipoic acid is perhaps the best single nutrient you can take to protect yourself against mycotoxins (and many other toxic chemicals in the environment.) There are others. N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC) and milk thistle extract also help a lot. On 5/18/06, barb1283 <barb1283@...> wrote: > > Alpha Lipoic Acid.

No, I am convinced (know for fact) if I could escape this mold/microorganism hell I have brought everywhere with me I could improve 50 fold over what I am experiencing right now. I don't know weather that requires a clean room at Intel or going to the mountains or living in a tent but I know it can be done and I need to try harder to achieve this. I am tired of wasting away in this trailer. It might be as simple as moving out of this park. I know some of the trailers here are mold havens. It could be wafting over here from other moldy trailers. Sounds far fetched but if my house could do it to me when I was sleeping in my back yard I don't see why it couldn't happen here. More than likely though I contaminated my trailer and now I have to discard it and start all over. I bought and ran a dehumidifier while I was gone. When I got back I left it running while I was inside. I think this might be what put me down so hard for two days. Whatever is in my trailer or in the air could have been propagated in the dehumidifier in the short time I was gone. That or the shock of coming back to a moldy environment. Or a combination of all of these things. >could you have a systemic fungal infection? Has >anyone done blood culture on you to see if you have infection like >that? I suppose I should see someone but when you are bleeding financially and not even able to get any help from the agencies you paid taxes into all of your life you tend to have second thoughts. I saw specialist's 10 years ago including two environmental Dr's and none really helped me. No one diagnosed my mold sensitivities. I would have loved to have seen Dr shoemaker ten years ago. I think he would be of great help to me. But than I already know what I have to do to treat myself and that is strict avoidance. >are.

Have you >done sauna, CSM, vitamin C IV's, ALA or other things to detoxify? I am probably the wrong person to talk to on this subject. I am not trying to be negative on purpose. I have always been skeptical of all these treatments and pills (not necessarily the specific ones you mentioned). Especially when someone does it in lew of avoiding mold in the first place. I have to admit out of desperation I have tried vitamins and hot baths, hepa filters, ozone devices. None of which did a thing for me. Avoiding mold has always helped immensely. I also believe that chemical/pesticide exposure needs to be avoided at all cost's being this is what brought on my illness in the first place. So I think this is where I need to put my focus, somehow finding and maintaining a new safe environment. It's to bad medical dr's don't take any pride in their jobs, " diagnosing and treating " their patients we wouldn't have this problem if that were the case.

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2006 Report Share Posted May 20, 2006 --see what your saying robert, I fell the same way, it seams that everything that gets to me can be traced to molds/toxins. the supposed allergy's, food allergy's and even most of the MCS irratants(that I've researched so far) can be traced to mold/mycotoxins, if this is true, the tiny amount is all it takes. I've said before that I hate putting names on our illnesses that are other known illnesses as I believe that we only have " like " symptoms to these illnesses, and ours is one illness that effects most of our body in several different ways. I like Dr. Shoemaker calling it " mold illness " . even if other bacteria , rusts or what ever is envolved, it came from the result of the mold decomposeing things as it feeds off it, right? so thats part of the mold illness. when I first took a list of molds exposed to and read the effects the mycotoxins they produced caused(at mold-help.org) there the symptoms I had, plain as day. I was positive than and after much research, Im still positive now. no dought in my mine. being exposoded in 2 different homes to different main mycotoxins and at different amounts has proved a lot to me. - In , Christ <antares41-41@...> wrote: > > On Fri, 19 May 2006 16:33:00 +0000, you wrote: > > >-robert, sure sounds like you have become chemical sensative. if you > >are, a new trailer, with new carpet, glues used on counter tops, > >things like that are going to make you ill > >too. > > > Jeanie, > I think most of the new smell has worn away.

Guest guest Posted May 24, 2006 Report Share Posted May 24, 2006 A lot of people could lead close to normal lives if only the medical profession gave us the tools we need to avoid mold exposure.

Guest guest Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 -yes it is that simple. if my doctor would have reconized my first symptoms, theres no dought I would not be as ill as I am now and would not have suffered damage to my organs.8 years of hell.and it doesn't end when you get out. the not so funny thing is that I knew that something wasn't right and something was causeing these strange symptoms but because I was the patient and he was the doctor, I wasn't took serious. grrrr, it pisses me off. and I still believe that many doctors, if not all of them had to know something about mold/mycotoxins a long time ago. how long does it take to figure it out! all these doctors working in these hospitals where people check in with one illness and die there from something else(like mold) how long ago was it figured out that operateing tools needed to be sterle? I'd guess thats about the time that doctors knew that molds and bacterias could cause infections and death. but gee, what if prescribed drugs including antibiotics cant touch this and what if its realized that mold and bacteria causes many diseases of witch the cause is supposedly unknown. dang, that pill pushing industry would be s### up a creek and doctors wouldn't get to many pantients if natural remidies cured all our illments. -- In , Christ <antares41-41@...> wrote: > > > A lot of people could lead close to normal lives if only the medical > profession gave us the tools we need to avoid mold exposure. > I really think it's that simple. > > > > > > On Sat, 20 May 2006 18:40:02 +0000, you wrote: > > >--see what your saying robert, I fell the same way, it seams that > >everything that gets to me can be traced to molds/toxins. the supposed > >allergy's, food allergy's and even most of the MCS irratants(that I've > >researched so far) can be traced to mold/mycotoxins, if this is true, > >the tiny amount is all it takes.

Guest guest Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 I disagree. I feel that it is the building industry. There is an epidemic in this country, and it is the buildings rotting out right from under us. If the buildings were made properly, there would be very little mold illness for doctors to have to recognise. The building codes need a drastic change, and it seems there is little financial incentive for them to undertake the undoubtedly expensive process. If the gov't got involved in fixing the problem, maybe it would happen. > > > A lot of people could lead close to normal lives if only the medical > profession gave us the tools we need to avoid mold exposure. > I really think it's that simple. > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am scared to bring the trailer back to this park though. Or any park for that matter. I liked it out in the mountains in North Carolina. Florida is just to conducive of an environment for mold.

I'm talking about getting an old one, gutting it, and completely redesigning the interior. Even aluminum trailers aren't mold proof if the condensation can reach anything that mold can grow on. I talked to someone who rebuilds Airstreams for MCSers and he said that even though the ribs are metal, the panel is still too close to the walls to be mold proof - and he has seen a lot of mold in conventional Airstreams. I just looked at an Airstream the other day that had mold on the foam carpet backing. They can be as bad as anything else, if they aren't modified. As for the mountains, I don't see where altitude makes any difference in terms of mold potential. This stuff is where it is. I've been through Arizona and parts of Florida, and some places were OK and others were not. I don't try to predict where mold is. Been proven wrong too many times. I just " perceptify " it to feel mold hits, and act accordingly. Like I say, I can live inside Reno and bicycle to work, but I cannot park in a mold plume specifically. If that trailer park you are in is suspect, are you sure that the problem is inside your trailer? I've been forced out of a number of RV parks, but had no mold growing in my custom-mold-unfriendly RV and it soon settled down again and felt good when I moved to a safe zone. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 -thats true too, and I'm sure theres doctor that dont know and doctors that have been trying to change things too. another factor of mold is the crop industries and the herbicides they use, round up is proven to cause fusarium growth in corn, and any other crops its used on. all countrys need to make serious change now on this may get the best of us all. -- In , " kl_clayton " <kl_clayton@...> wrote: > > I disagree.

Instead doctors (with the exception of a few) do the opposite to this day, they generate papers dispelling mold as a serious health threat and implicating us as slip and fall artist's with a psychological problem trying to make the big bucks. I can't argue your point that if all buildings were only safe than no one would be sick. But that's highly unlikely to happen in our lifetimes. Getting the medical profession to do what we pay them for " diagnosis and treatment " is possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
