MCS flaring up -help

I recently had mold in my house and I guess it’s flared up MCS even with chemicals. I got rid of almost all my things when I moved out, but began to have burning in my throat/on my chest from being around new things (chemicals).

Anyway so now I’m beginning to react to a bunch of things that I was fine with before, including my laptop.

Do I need to get rid of everything? Is it ok to just put up with the reactions and keep using those things? Will that just make me worse?

Or do I need to not use them until I get better? It’s come to the point in the last day where now I sometimes can’t tell anymore what is making me react.

I am so sorry you are dealing with this. I am not experienced in this situation but others should be along that may know more about what to do.

Meanwhile hang in there and I hope you are to resolve this and get better soon.

I believe in our new to Lyme thread at the top of the page there is information on Mold.

Take care and I wish you the best of healing, Jo

lapis_29 I’m not sure. I didn’t react to it for over a month after moving away from the mold, but I have been in a mold place for about 48 hours since then... I wonder if it’s from chemicals from new items I got that rubbed off on it? Anyway am focusing on detoxing and hoping that helps my sensitivity calm down.

Yes I have taken it outside and blown the dust off it

No I don’t have an ozone machine, unfortunately

Are you doing anything to bind mold in your body? Removing yourself from moldy environment is important first step. I can’t imagine how hard it must have been to get rid of everything!

It has been said that VIP replacement can help those with MCS tolerate exposures better. Have you tested VIP level? I have not done the VIP yet to know if it personally works but my serum level is really low.

I’m no expert but I think you should try a different mold binder. Or do you notice a difference with charcoal?

Here’s a excerpt on VIP:
