So how can i treat mold, i cant find any buhner protocoll for it.

Hi palerma,

Do you know which types of mycotoxins they found and how much of it?

A urine test might be better, though I'm not completely familiar with the stool testing.

A certain percentage of the population is unable to get rid of mold in their bodies, so if you're one of those people, I would suggest taking binders. A good one is cholestyramine, but you didn't mention which ones you are already taking?

So even though you aren't currently living with mold, it is possible you were exposed to it in the past and your body hasn't gotten rid of it.

Also please note that mold is often behind paint, under carpets, in the wall itself and so forth. So you can't always see it.

It is my understanding that there are also different binders for certain types of mold, so maybe you can let us know what they found?

As others have hinted, sounds like this test is a little to generalizing if it didn't get more specific than just "mold positive".

If its that non-specific, or its just using markers to take note, it could also be Candida. Candida and varieties of mold can trigger some of the same "markers".

(You can also get a standard insurance covered Candida Albicans antibody blood test to be sure. I tested positive for that a few times. )

I started looking into mold recently after finally reading Dr. Neil Nathan's book Toxic which I have seen recommended many times, wish I had read it sooner. It is very helpful to get it in Kindle format, not only cheaper but a big advantage to be able to search and highlight.

Another good reference is Dr. Marty Ross's site: https://www.treatlyme.net/guide/mold-toxin-illness-lyme-toxin

After reading both of these I took the free VCS test that they refer to and was positive. Proceeded to the Realtime urine test, also positive.

So now I am very carefully starting binders, can only tolerate a very small amount of Modified Citrus Pectin without increasing symptoms. It has only been a couple of weeks, but I might already be seeing some improvements, fingers crossed!
