Thank you so much for that link and putting all the work into posting those responses! I really appreciate it. That helps me out a lot. I own an HBOT and have been doing regular dives for a few...
My recent blood work shows elevated LDH. It was 325, which seems quite a bit over the normal lab ranges. For women, it should be between135 – 214. What I read indicated it can point to possible...
Recently, I had someone mention to me that they think their babesia flared up after doing several rounds of HBOT; this being due to bars is thriving on oxygen. I wanted to ask if anyone else has...
I cannot take NAC because it causes a histamine response, and glutathione is too intense for me, right now. I've been taking Glucarate. It's seemed to be helping slowly. I'm noticing it most in my...
I can only empathize with you. I've also gained a decent amount of weight that I cannot shake. I have weight setting around my upper arms and hips that's never been like that. I eat very clean, lots...
My husband has been getting these small sores popping up in one forearm/elbow for the past few months. They are red, round, and somewhat scabby and are taking several weeks to heal. They are not...
This is very interesting about pathogen load. When my Lyme resurfaced after living in a high mold environment, I was having yellow eyes floaters that were so thick, it was getting dangerous to drive....
I'm not sure about being a mold avoider; I have asked about that and waiting to see what they respond. I wouldn't use someone else's mattress at all, for those reasons you listed. My gut instinct...
My husband and I are looking and praying to get out of our current housing, which has high mold. Remediation isn't going to be possible here, so we are looking into a low mold trailer, like the...
I had to get out of heavy mold for it to go away. (I'm still living in mold, but not as heavy of a load). I was living in an apartment with black mold on the walls and a carbon monoxide leak. The...
I have done ozone drip IVs, auto hematherapy (blood is extracted and ozone added, then reinjected); my husband has also done blood ozone dialysis. For me, I felt my baseline increased each time I did...
I've been seeing a great LLND out of Orange County. She has been trained by Dr Horowitz and lots of knowledge on Lyme, mold, and chronic conditions. She's among the more affordable practitioners I've...
I've been doing very high dose melatonin to sleep at night. I do 200 mg. It doesn't make me groggy, thankfully, and does generally help me get to sleep. But I haven't noticed any detox effects with...
Ok, oddly this is sounding much more like my husband. My headaches are transient, but he's had NDPH for 5.5 years, now. His head pain hasn't gone away for even half an hour. Is yours constant? His...
I don't have much to help you, except I can totally empathize. I have very similar headache patterns when I flare up. It's so strange how sore and tender those places on the head get. Mine get much...
My husband has had high cholesterol for about a year, now. His LDL is 203. He eats super clean, no sugar. He eats organic ghee, grass fed meats, olive/coconut/avocado oil, salmon, and organic...
Yes, should I email you the name? I don't know what's totally allowed on here. It was the cheapest place I've found and the doctor and nurse practitioner who run it have really tried to keep the...
My husband had one done to test for a CSF leak. To put it bluntly, it's torture. He had to be flat on his back for 2 months in horrific pain. It also caused some very troubling brain encephalitis...
How did the Fecal transplant go? I've done them a few dozen times (yes, dozen...SIBO is a beast) over the years and think they are a great, underutilized tool....
Thank you so much for your help and for the prayers. You are precious people. The Lord will show us where our path leads with all this!...
There's a couple studies showing how it can be realized from mast cells. Here's one I found: "However, N-Acetylcysteine (NAC) may cause increased histamine release from mast cells resulting in side...
Another possibility for feeling worse with NAC: if you have problems with histamines, NAC can flare those up. It does with some people but not others. I personally feel significantly worsen taking it...
I've been using Heiltripfen DMSO from Amazon. After researching DMSO, this one seemed to be one of the few reliable brands. Ive had consistently positive results using it....
I'm in the San Diego area....
Thank you both so much for your input. It was sobering to see these results. It explains so much why my husband has continued to worsen, and his chemical sensitivity is so much stronger. We are no...
Hi! Can I send you my home EMRI test to look over? Edit: I went ahead and pasted the info below Aspergillus flavus/oryzae 4 Aspergillus fumigatus* 210 Aspergillus niger* 1500 Aspergillus ochraceus*...
As always, you have such a helpful list! I ordered some mimosa pudica just now. I'm just weary of having spent $$$ on gut healing protocols for years and still dealing with bloating, digestive...
I would love to go keto. It's helped a lot in the past, but I struggle with my adrenals whenever I do. Plus, given the hyper limited amount of foods I can tolerate, I can't nourish myself super...
[code] Thank you! I'll search those!...
I've decided to focus more strongly on gut parasites and SIBO, which I've struggled with for years. I've been dealing with food intolerances for years and have the usual restrictive diet: AIP Low...
Have you looked into places with higher elevation and cooler/drier climates? I'm thinking of Utah, Montana, etc. Visiting those places has always made me feel better because of the cool and dry...
Yes! My husband has done two sessions of it. There's a place in Southern California that is $1100, which is more accessible but still achingly expensive. The procedure is incredible to watch. The...
As a Socal native, I have to add my experience. Mold exposure has been increasing here for two reasons: 1) the desert areas are getting increasingly humid. We used to have single digit dry desert...
WBF, yes, he oil pulls almost every day and usually puts a couple drops of peppermint or clove oil. He also uses oral probiotics and mineral based mouthwash. Anecdotally, I do it too and I've noticed...
Oh ok! They have mentioned cone beams in the past, so I will have to see about doing that. My husband has lost 5 teeth in the past couple years due to these chronic infections that don't seem to go...
Walking by Faith, do you know what kind of imaging would be used checking for cavitations? We have a biological dentist that uses a panoramic digital X-ray, among other imaging. I'm wondering if...
Very, very good point about leaving in time to make it to my usual bedtime. I can see myself trying to stay too late and compromise than very important factor. Fortunately, my family is pretty much...
Super good advice, WBF, thank you!!! The fragrances and mold are a huge point of consideration. I'll have binders on deck. I love the electrolyte cocktail you make with potassium, magnesium, and the...
These were some wonderful suggestions! Thank you so much! I loved the encouragement to enjoy the time, first and foremost. I enter so many situations with trepidation and always wondering how I'm...
I have a wedding of a very close family member coming up. Despite being very careful with my schedule and commitments to the day, I'm anticipating feeling pushed far beyond my limits, as any kind of...
That's a really good point about the two competing. I will have him do theanine in the evening and tyrosine in the mornings....
My husband was put on theanine and tyrosine by our LLND. He's been far more fatigued than usual (he always has fatigue but this has been much more severe and persistent). Is it possible that either...
Congrats! That's awesome! And it's so true, half an hour makes a huge difference. I wish I could be getting quality sleep. I have a blackout curtain, no electronics or screens an hour before bed,...
One more question, Saraeli, did you test multiple rooms with one cloth?...
WBF, you are amazing. Thank you so much for being so available to all of us here. I would love to send you the results when I get them back. I have done the Real Time mold test and tested highest...
Thank you so much for your reply! That was very helpful to me. Shortly after we moved here, we did urine tests with Real Time labs and both showed higher levels of mycotoxins. I am curious to see if...
My LLMD has repeatedly recommended we get our current home tested for mold. My husband is struggling to continue treatments and shows signs of high toxic load, even with regular detox. She...
You're welcome! I hope you can sort it out! Depending on your level of sensitivity, you could be reacting to things even in supplements. NAC makes me flare up :/...
I know eczema can flare up from high histamines. Have you had an issue with them before? It might be helpful to eliminate some high histamine foods and see if that helps reduce the inflammation. This...
