I just came across this great article on fungal hypersensitivity. It’s rather old, but excellent. In the closing remarks, the author initiates a sort of challenge, suggesting patients be divided into 2 groups with one group treated with the Shoemaker protocol and the second group treated using Environmental Medicine principles (which I believe is immunotherapy = allergy shots).

Have you been fully treated with either the Shoemaker protocol or immunotherapy? Did it work? Anyone been treated both ways?

Here’s the article:

The immunotherapy I do is sublingual (LDA/LDI). It definitely helps me. The LDA mix I do is for foods, chemicals, environmental (includes molds). I took my 3rd dose today - it is dosed every 7 wks. I am not sure if it helps for mold, as I think my issue is chemicals. I have many allergies now too.

On a side note - I had no response from immunotherapy for lyme & co. Went through all the doses from 16c to 6c. It’s a long process! Next trying yeast LDI.

I did a modified shoemaker protocol. I was able to normalize my labs (tgf beta, mmp9, adh). The desmopressin was great short term. However, it did not permanently fix the issue and my last adh test was undetectable and now have bouts of frequent urination mixed with some normal days (before I never had normal days).

k07,

What kind of doctor is treating you with the LDA/LDI therapy? What kind of testing did you have that led to this treatment?

No testing, just jumped in. Started with a local doc then switched to dr. V in Hawaii.

I will update if I have good response again. Then I can be sure it’s not a fluke.

I do feel like it’s just a band-aid because it only works for 3-4 weeks right now.

Is the local doctor a naturopath? Just wondering what kind of doctor would know anything about this.

No, he was just a regular doc that accepted insurance in Ohio.

You could try emailing dr v and ask if he recommends someone in your area. I know the doc that I mentioned to you before in Atlanta uses it (dr o).
