Re: Rolling uterus finally gathered moss? Toxic Mold

[Guest guest]

Sharon,

Do you have a contact address, fax, e-mail anything? This needs to be

addressed in writing. The phone number is to a voicemail.

Dear Friends,

Below is a disgusting and disturbing new " peer reviewed " paper that is

published within the Journal of Clinical Neuropsychologist.

As a mold victim, I am saddened by the lack of science this paper out of

UCLA, (home of Saxon, one of the most notorious of mold defensors).

As a woman, I am appalled at the title and inference that women mold victims

are only in need of psychological assistance. This is by far the most

derogatory title yet.

This piece of work is a prime example of money and bias within the medical

community, taking precedence over the care of sick patients.

If you too are appalled by the poor taste, inaccurate science and

degredation intended toward women, please call the main office for the

American Academy

of Clinical Neurospychology @ (734) 936-8269 and let them know they need to

retract this horrid piece of Junk Science.

CA, USA.

This article reports six cases of litigants claiming neuropsychiatric

impairment due to toxic mold exposure. In spite of recent growth in personal

injury

claims due to mold, numerous reviews of the literature have failed to find

an association between environmental exposure to mold and neuropsychiatric

and/or neuropsychological damage. We report data on six patients claiming

harm,

4 of whom revealed a long history of somatization by history and

psychological testing, and 2 of whom were shown to be malingering based on

multiple

indicators of non-credible performance. Of the 6 patients, only the 2

somatoform

patients who were also depressed showed credible evidence of

neuropsychological dysfunction. We review two other studies that have

examined the link

between mold exposure and cognitive impairment and discuss their limitations

in

view of the presenting behaviors of these 6 patients. Until the literature

has

established a credible link between mold and

neuropsychiatric/neuropsychiatricneuropsychiatric/<WBR>neuropsychologic<WBR>al

impairment, jurists and clinici

harm of exposing somatoform patients to multiple unwarranted medical

evaluations. Principles for forensic evaluations in this special population

are

reviewed.
