Help for toxic mold hypersensitivity
I had a large exposure to water damage in a building about a year ago and since then have had trouble tolerating most housing and humidity.I moved into a new house and am getting some symptoms I didn't have before from the slight amount of mold here.
It seems to be an autoimmune reaction problem.
Symptoms:
1) Difficulty remembering things in the moment. I think of something I need to do and then forget it, or leave something on the stove.
Difficulty thinking of words.
2) Lungs close up a little when I breathe, difficulty getting a full breath of air.
3) I have cavitation sites where I had wisdom teeth extracted, and those feel itchy again (from lack of blood flow and infections in them).
4) It is worse when I am in the apartment, especially when in the most damp room in the apartment.
5) It is better when I leave the apartment and get fresh air.
6) Sensitive to people doubting me or to people thinking I'm not smart.
7) State of mind is peaceful, but also fearful that I made a mistake moving, even though I thought the apartment I was moving to was very low in mold.
8) Desires for pomegranate juice.
9) Major diseases in the past:
chronic Lyme disease
anorexia as a teenager
water damaged building exposure and toxic mold illness
mold hypersensitivity
10) Detals of any reactions to other medicines taken.
Tend to have extreme reactions to most medications.
History of homeopathic treatment if any.
Constitutional homeopath prescribed some remedy made from spiders because I was sensitive to sounds.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
It takes some time to get over mold sensitivity and once you are sensitized
when you live in another place or go into a building that has mold issues
there are strong reactions.You must have Zero mold where you live.
The first thing you have to do is find out if there is hidden mold where
you are living now. You either have to leave that place or get the mold
taken care of right away bc you will not get better if this is going on.
You can go to a site called http://www.moldcheck.com/moldcheck and buy a test kit where
you put strips in each room and then see the spore count. This site
gives you directions on how to hire someone to safely remove the mold,
repair the leaks where water is seeping in and repaint the area with
sealant type paint. You should not be in the home while they are removing
the mold.
Make sure you do not have any humidifiers or mist machines bc mold grows
in those things and they must be well maintained.
You need to work with a mold expert on how to strengthen your system
as this requires specific expertise. And often homeopaths or drs. or
others who do not understand this, dismiss people as having mental
problems when this is absolutely not the case.Please go to the site
of Dr. Shoemaker, a well known expert in usa on mold. Contact his
office and find a doctor who has learned his methodshttp://www.survivingmold.com/treatment-
This is your best option at getting healed, I know several people who had this
and went to other Doctors who were trained by Dr Shoemake on the mold issues
and the people finally!! got relief and were on their way back to normal.
Homeopathy does not work well on this , due to the hypersensitivity and
bizarre reactions to remedies due to this.
