Re: CSM Dosing Schedule

So if CSM absorbs fat and toxins that are in fat

from intestines and you take it all day or before

every meal, how do you get fatty acids, since

those are essential to health all day. It seems

that it is still active or can be still active in

your body for 4-6 hours after taking it since it

recommends you wait that long until taking

medicines, 1/2 hour before or 1 hour before some

say for medicines or 4 hours after Dr Shoe says,

so must be that CSM is still active 4 hours

later, so when do you get essential fatty acids

which are necessary part of your needs every day

if there is CSM in your body all the time

absorbing fats. Perhaps you go without these

essential nutrients for a month or so to get rid

of toxins and then go off of CSM for awhile at

least. I know Tiedlebaum recommends only a one

month course of CSM...of course his main focus is

CFS and not specifically toxin illness. I guess

I could take it for a month as he recommends and

go off of it for a month and then on it, instead

of taking it once a day as I have been.

The thing I try to guard against is that one

thing doctors have taught me is that they are

mioptic. They treat one thing (or in their case

make you feel better for one ailment), but cause

two or three new problems in the wake of their

treatment which could be worse than the original

problem, but don't care or think about it. First

thing is do no harm. If you are taking CSM for

short period, your body is equipped to lack

certain nutrients and have other assaults for

short term usually without harm but if you are

doing something for a year, a year without

adequate absorption of essential fatty acids

could do harm to something else. Say you don't

have enough Vit D to help Calcium to be absorbed

and so you lose bone mass or decalcium your

teeth. If it is in spine, you could cause back

trouble or hip fracture. A wife of someone at

work that is only in her 50's just had to have

hip surgery already...my greataunt didn't have

that problem until she was 98 but she took care

of herself.

How long do you have to take the CSM. Seems like a long time.

How long you stay on the CSM varies per individual. It also depends upon whether

you're still being exposed. I've been told that once I move into my hopefully

non-moldy house and validate that it's safe by going off CSM for two weeks, I

will go on a maintenance dosage of twice a day. The reason for the maintenance

dosage is that as is discussed on this list, mold is everywhere. I'm in a hotel

right now for work and there's a small amount of mold in the bathroom (it is

rare to find a hotel bathroom that is mold free). And, of course, airplanes are

also wonderful havens for mold.

Because I'm a dreaded genotype (and mold) and have been sick for quite some

time, I have been on the 4 times a day dosage for almost 8 months. My kids

were only on it 3 times a day for one month and are now on it twice a day.

I have found that I can go days, sometimes many days without it, but one bad

exposure will mean I have to take it again for days afterward.. and I feel

miserable and can't function for days.. (from the mold, not the

cholstyramine, which I tolerate pretty well now..)

The discomfort peaks six to twelve hours after the exposure.. doesn't go

away for a long time.. It also usually means that I don't sleep well..

I have clothes that will do this.. sealed up now in trash bags and plastic

boxes..

Which reminds me, I meant to ask.. my wife and I have a bunch of nice fleece

jackets we can't wear (name brand fleece jackets that we can't afford to

throw away) that we have washed many times and still can't wear.. (I'm the

one who gets sick, not her)

Any pointers, anyone? Lets make this fun.. an experiment...

They were our main warm jackets during our nightmare and now they are still

VERY reactive despite being washed at least five times now, in detergent,

with borax and bleach.. etc..

Help...

, I take a maintenance dose of 2X a day unless I feel like I've gotten

a hit. Then it's back to 4X a day for a week.

Does anyone know a source for CSM such as an online pharmacy that would ship

to the USA?
