i have been diagnosed with mycotoxins, which is fungi (mold is one of them, but there are many sources)
specifically i have been exposed to ochratoxin A.
Does anyone have experience treating for mycotoxins? It will severely hinder lyme treatment.
Many lyme patients who experience seizure like episodes, severe muscle spasms have mycotoxins according to my LLMD. he has me started on Chlorella as a mild binder and wants me to add Modified Citrus Pectin.
(Cholestyramine is the strongest binder but it will make me even more constipated - if that is possible!)
Christa van der ham finally got better when she got control of her mycotoxins using cholestyramine
Any mycotoxin experience would be much appreciated!

I'm on an herbal called D-Mico for mycotoxins. It's by Consolidated Wellness Solutions. I got mine from my homeopath, who is very well respected and successful with her protocals. It's very strong. I'm supposed to get to 10 drops at some point. I'm up to 4 drops after 4 weeks. I don't know if it's working because of all my other issues and all the other things I'm on (cholestyramine included)...overall, my trajectory has been positive since I started all this stuff she gave me. I don't really know much about the whole mycotoxin thing. I know Dave Asprey cured himself from it, and you have to avoid certain food. I'm reading his book, The Bulletproof Diet and it has a lot of good info...Good luck.

Thanks cr3ativegirl! I will check it out. I believe my mycotoxin levels are fairly low, but my LLMD says they can go up after start of treatment.

I have a high level of Tricothecene mycotoxin. My Naturopath has prescribed Byron White A-Fng drops and Mupericin in an inhaler as well as Nystatin. I had previously been on another inhaled medication that is no longer available. I had noticed a marked improvement, but slid back before she put me on the Mupericin. My primary symptom from the mold is extreme levels of mucous. After about one month I am just beginning to see some improvement.

Good Luck

Can anyone recall the test(s) you had that led to mold diagnosis?

Astroman unfortunately i dont know. I have had a battery... I can ask at my next appt.

Astroman, the definitive test as I understand it is from Real Time Labs. It was a 24 hour urine test and cost me $700. I have heard there is a much cheaper oral swab that is not as accurate.

Good Luck and Happy Thanksgiving!
