Awesome information!! Thanks so much for sharing.

For those who see this, the title is about MARCONS, but the information is highly valuable for anyone with mold exposure or with sinus issues.

k07,
Have you even seen this doc? He’s in Atlanta, too. I met one of the remediators who works with his patients. Unfortunately, that remediator would not follow my protocol and was inflexible. It was his way or the highway. He wanted to replace all the insulation in the attic to the tune of $10k.

Wbf - no, have not tried his products. After reading the article I came away from it feeling like I should not treat marcons (even though my last test was positive). However i do have a lot of mucus (but it’s clear). I sometimes wake up choking and coughing on it. May try out the citri drops.

My feeling about why Shoemaker believed MARCONS was important to address is because it was known to produce toxins internally that could trigger CIRS. Shoemaker’s whole focus on CIRS was that biotoxins could trigger this chronic inflammatory response in genetically susceptible people. He only only addressed pathogens that had identified biotoxins such us mold, borrelia, MARCONS, etc. He never said much about coinfections like bartonella and babesia because he was not aware of any toxins produced by them. He solely focused on toxins produced by biological organisms.

I was only tested once for MARCONS - back in 2016. It was negative. The Lyme doctor I started seeing in 2017 mentioned testing again, but I declined. I seem to remember her thinking that almost everyone with mold has MARCONS.

I am living in a house that was remediated, but mold has come back and the house is getting much worse. I have been having weird feelings in my teeth, roof of mouth, back of throat and behind sinus cavity. I know it’s from the mold - either inflammation from inhalation or MCAS from inhalation.

I don’t know where he got that information about 17% with a T-cell receptor defect and what follows that, but this is the first time I have heard this, unless I forgot. This explains also why mold and Lyme go hand in hand and why chemical and food sensitivities occur.

Surely more must be known about this. Anyone know?

Wow very inetersting!
I tested for marcons but ended up with e coli diagnosis (it was part of the test) and treated with antibiotics.

Looks like the key would be finding out how to knock those antigens off the T-cell receptors and how to repair the deformed T-cell receptors.
