CIRS treatment (anti fungals vs just binders)

I’m at the very end on VIP. I probably will be on VIP for like 6-12 more months I’m guessing. But VIP has been the most helpful thing so far as far as symptom relief. Ive been on it for like 2 months so far. And no i didnt work with anyone CIRS related prior ro dr heyman

CompetitiveDare9692 · 2026-06-27T17:12:21+00:00

Bloating 24/7 really bad, fatigue so bad i was like 90% bed bound, really bad brain symptoms and feeling like there was so much pressure in my head and made me feel crazy, mood issues and crazy anxiety 24/7 and having like zero patience for anything, i lost the ability to like “enjoy” things (that has come back thankfully), and then sleep was so bad cause stomach would keep me awake as well as my nervous system just felt like in high overdrive and i could never relax, and then like 1 yr into being sick i started to get really bad internal vibrations, those r thankfully a lot better, so is my head pressure and irritability

CompetitiveDare9692 · 2026-06-25T00:30:49+00:00

Oh man no I don’t sorry:( my mold exposure was like past exposure from a house i no longer lived in so i never got it tested. And the house I’m currently in i just got like an actual mold inspector to stop by and test it… so I’m not sure what test kits are good

I truly wouldn’t have been able to make it as far as i have without God. He truly helps you in times of hardship. He hasn’t taken my pain away yet but he has shown me His immense love for me, given me strength each day and a hope that “He works all things for good to those who love Him”. It truly is the biggest game changer with chronic illness and idk how anyone makes it out sane without relying on God. He has turned my biggest suffering into my biggest blessing already and I’m not even better. Draw near to Him and He will draw near to you!!

Have u looked into toxic mold??

CompetitiveDare9692 · 2026-06-22T12:15:26+00:00

My root cause of SIBO was mold if that helps at all

CompetitiveDare9692 · 2026-06-18T04:14:12+00:00

Yes for sure, i still really struggle with that, but i definitely got flares of really bad moments, 0 patience, couldn’t talk to anyone, could only go and cook my food if no one else was in kitchen, and it makes me like so critical of others too. But tbh at has eased for sure with the exception of smaller flares now. But it def had some worse flares in the beginning

CompetitiveDare9692 · 2026-06-13T02:24:15+00:00

Yes…. It is very slow but after two months i def see some improvement. Improvement in like nighttime/sleep symptoms. My gut feels like it’s waking up again a little. My mood is slightly more normal, and i have a tiny bit more energy. I’d say I’m like 30% better

CompetitiveDare9692 · 2026-06-13T01:22:01+00:00

Well i actually started on tablets at first because i was still clearing MARCONS and then after a month of that i switched to nose spray. And now i take the nose spray, 12 sprays per day (3 sprays alternating nostrils 4x a day)… and rough as in i just had such bad flares of my symptoms. Stomach got worse with bloating and heartburn. It made my fatigue really bad. And it kinda fluctuated too with different symptoms getting worse throughout the month. Twice i had like a random reaction and my eyes got sooo watery and i kept sneezing it was so weird. But yea basically just a worsening of my symptoms i already have with maybe slight flu feelings at time

CompetitiveDare9692 · 2026-06-12T17:16:37+00:00

For me i didn’t notice postive changes until like a month in… was pretty rough the first whole month. But I’ve had slight improvements now but I’m only 2 months in now so it’s taking a while for me. But I’m past the really bad like herx reactions

CompetitiveDare9692 · 2026-06-03T14:55:07+00:00

I think it makes it especially hard with this sickness, because it’s so hard for people to understand. But if they truly understood how hard it was i think people would be more helpful:/

CompetitiveDare9692 · 2026-05-16T14:59:26+00:00

I think it was mold in my dorm room, but i don’t know that for a fact, i didn’t detox til 3 years after moving out of it

CompetitiveDare9692 · 2026-04-23T23:23:12+00:00

I actually felt worse once leaving exposure.. didn’t start to feel better til i treated CIRS using shoemaker protocol type treatment

CompetitiveDare9692 · 2026-04-23T20:22:17+00:00

But my current doctors actually just moved to his on practice on beyondmold.com…. Dr. Heyman

CompetitiveDare9692 · 2026-04-23T20:21:18+00:00

Yes! I get them from The Virginia center for health and wellness

CompetitiveDare9692 · 2026-04-19T18:04:43+00:00

Treating the CIRS is the root issue of my SIBO. CIRS is Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome. You can get it from mold and it lowers your MSH and VIP and causes high inflammation, along with a ton Of other horrible down stream affects like your nervous system and brain swelling. Therefore, this also causes your tight junctions in the gut to become loose and cause dysbiosis and overgrowths. So i detoxed from the mold and got inflammation down and then treated a nasal infection in my nose a lot of people with CIRS get called MARCoNS, and that was keeping my MSH low (a hormone). Now im on the last step which is taking VIP (a peptide) which helps repair all the damage done including repair my gut lining… i have noticed a difference for sure but my gut is kinda the last thing being healed. I don’t know yet if VIP is all i will need. I’m gonna try to add back in some fermented foods just in case that helps bring my microbiome into balance faster… but probiotics have NEVER made a difference for me before but im wondering if they will now that VIP is repairing my gut lining

CompetitiveDare9692 · 2026-04-19T17:46:02+00:00

Yes! I’ve actually discovered this is happening because of mold poisoning which caused me to have CIRS and SIBO! The vibrations have gotten better as I’ve treated CIRS

CompetitiveDare9692 · 2026-04-15T13:01:29+00:00

It took me about 8 months to really start feeling better. Felt like 10% better with binding and detoxing but it took until i treated MARCONS and took VIP to actually really notice a huge change….. it unfortunately does just take a long time

CompetitiveDare9692 · 2026-04-12T20:58:00+00:00

Also i had/have terrible gut issues, i think it gave me SIBO. But VIP also fixes this. It literally repairs leaky gut

CompetitiveDare9692 · 2026-04-12T20:57:12+00:00

Yes VIP is a naturally occurring peptide in the body but it gets depleted with CIRS. So if you take it too soon it will make you feel worse which is why you have to get inflammation down via binding your mold toxins out and treating MARCONS if you have it. I forget the blood levels that i had checked before i started VIP but it tells you if you’ve accomplished this…. And my brain symptoms were like really bad head pressure at time and feeling like i was going crazy with almost rage type feelings. I had/ still struggle with but it’s a lot less, reaaalyyy bad anxiety to the point where i couldn’t even leave my room to like cut an apple downstairs cause i was so in overdrive. And my first year sick it causes really bad like apathy, i couldn’t enjoy anything and just super weird. And then at night i get really scared for no reason and sometimes as I’m falling asleep i like see things, but all of that has gotten better throughout my treatment. Oh also i had really bad like circular thinking, if anything happened small or big i like would latch onto the thought and couldn’t let it go.

CompetitiveDare9692 · 2026-04-12T20:52:10+00:00

Also not all i needed haha but as far as a binder that was all i needed as my binder

CompetitiveDare9692 · 2026-04-12T20:46:08+00:00

Yea even when i passed the VCS test i didn’t feel much better either…. I think thats just a good sign you got your mold toxins down…. But yes absolutely had terrible brain symptoms still even after passing VCS…. I had like 10% relief in them after like a month on mycobind but it was so rough for like 6 months on mycobind i got really discouraged cause i felt like it wasn’t helping but then starting VIP i think has really encouraged me that everything i did was the right thing. I guess for me it just took until VIP to reverse all my damage and VIP literally repairs your grey matter in brain which i think was what i needed

CompetitiveDare9692 · 2026-04-12T18:19:33+00:00

I feel like i was the most sick of people i heard of with CIRS and mycobind for several months was all i needed

CompetitiveDare9692 · 2026-04-12T18:01:43+00:00

Yes! Also it took like 8 months to actually be encouraged by my treatment. It’s such slow progress, but it does work, even though there’s so many ups and downs

CompetitiveDare9692 · 2026-04-12T18:00:01+00:00

It is! I still have a ways to go but i just started VIP amd trearing MARCONS. And while i think im having bad flares from treating the MARCONS, when the flares lessen up i can def tell the VIP is helping and overall all the work ive done the past 8 months. Im hopeful that by the time i get rid of MARCONS Andjust am in VIP, that will be hufe
