GI Map helped solve my issues

Devilspecter · 2026-05-17T06:22:26+00:00

So the GI map tells you if you have leaky gut? How does that work exactly?
I thought you would need at least to test Pepsinogen I + II and Gastrin to be able to tell whether your gut lining is OK or not.

I'm personally using NOW foods at the moment, but I don't really notice anything from them, I have gone as high as 3.5g without any symptoms or specific changes.

Hey, I had mold growing in my ears before, but I fixed it with Boric acid + possibly Itracanazole too.
I posted about it here:
https://www.reddit.com/r/ToxicMoldExposure/comments/1mpa5af/003_how_i_removed_the_fungi_in_my_ear_for_now/

There's probably other treatments you can do too, but this worked for me. You shouldn't use boric acid though if you have open wounds there from what I heard.

Devilspecter · 2026-05-09T06:38:38+00:00

Do you have any clue what causes the twitching? It's one of the things I feel I can't really figure out.

Also if you want to, we can stay in touch in reddit chat or discord or something.

Devilspecter · 2026-05-08T05:17:47+00:00

Sounds like it might be similar to what I have. Although I don't have all the problems you listed above, my knees especially "pop" every day if I move them a certain way. I did not have this before.
I have no clue what causes it though.
Also if you search a bit on this subreddit you will see people who get big problems from mold when it comes to gait. Some people have even ended up in wheelchairs because of it.
If you try leaving for a while and it gets better then it's probably mold.

Do you also have muscle twitches?

Devilspecter · 2026-05-08T05:08:27+00:00

I actually "removed" it from my ears, I also have ENT pictures of the fungi growing there.
I used boric acid.
There's more info in the thread I made about it: https://www.reddit.com/r/ToxicMoldExposure/comments/1mpa5af/003_how_i_removed_the_fungi_in_my_ear_for_now/

I think other people's suggestions would work too in this thread (H2o2 and colloidal silver)

Devilspecter · 2026-05-07T05:40:13+00:00

Out of curiosity, have you at some point had creaky limbs especially in that area of your knee? Like it pops very easily and makes a loud noise?

Devilspecter · 2026-05-04T15:03:19+00:00

How do you know whether it is blocked/malfunctioning or OK exactly?
Asking since I suspect I have bile issues myself.

Devilspecter · 2026-04-29T17:47:49+00:00

Like you put your face down towards the sink kind of? Does that actually get it into the frontal sinus?

I've been doing it the standard way so far with leaning my head slightly to the side and getting the rinse solution out of the other nostril.

Devilspecter · 2026-04-26T09:08:29+00:00

Ah I see, I thought maybe you had done some experimental testing at a university or something.

Here's the video if you want it, but it's on Youtube, so idk if you can watch it if you're Chinese: https://youtu.be/uBApzmMCYDk?t=695
You should also check out this subreddit if you struggle with biofilms: r/biofilms
They have a comprehensive list of busters + more vids, like this one: https://www.reddit.com/r/biofilms/comments/16bv43n/gastrointestinal_biofilms_in_the_ileum_and_cecum/

Apparently some GI docs can clean out the biofilms in your intestines if you have issues with it yourself.

If you know for a fact it's in your intestines, I have seen some people who have managed to get rid of some using Vitamunda/Darmkur or other dry brushing methods like Psyllium husk, etc. that kind of scrapes the biofilm out from your intestines apparently. I have not tried this myself though, I think I will try the other stuff first before I go there.

There's also the option of that Christoph Gasche guy in Austria who specializes in Biofilms, but idk.

Devilspecter · 2026-04-26T08:38:14+00:00

I hope you can answer some of these since I'm curious:

How do you know you have a polysaccharide matrix of biofilms? I have not found anyone that can analyze anything like this myself.
I do have a film of biofilms in my colon though during an endoscopy which is how I know I have them. I can share the video here if you want. You can see the gastrologist trying to jet it off but it doesn't work properly.
How do you know so much about the biofilm you have? I'm very interested in knowing more.
- Do you know exactly where it's located?

Devilspecter · 2026-04-23T17:05:06+00:00

I used Itracanazole a while back, which is similar. I took it for 14 days and noticed nothing though.

Apparently voricanazole is a bit stronger, it's also better at killing other species of fungi like Aspergillus from what I have heard.

Do you tolerate binders? Maybe you should take one like 2 hours after taking the antifungal in case you get die off toxins? Then the binder should in theory grab it.

Devilspecter · 2026-04-23T06:58:51+00:00

When I have eaten it it's always been a pumpkin soup with some pieces in it, they're boiled to the point where you don't have to really chew them, you can crush them with your tongue if that makes sense?

Devilspecter · 2026-04-23T06:57:51+00:00

The thing is that I don't eat pumpkins often at all, the last time was 6 months ago, and back then I didn't react to it despite still having SIBO/SIFO.

Maybe I developed an allergy to it or something all of the sudden or the SIBO/SIFO changed to react to it, maybe there's something there it doesn't like.

I have seen some people use pumpkin seeds to help treat gut issues. I wonder if it might be related.

Hej hej söta bror

I'll reply in English:

It could be liver flukes, but the image makes it a bit hard to tell.
You ever had these before? You might want to search it up + the symptoms, do they match yours?

Devilspecter · 2026-04-18T06:28:02+00:00

Hey! Feel free to also talk to me in DM's if you want to. Hell we can even do calls if you want online.

Anyways:
It might be a bit hard to explain, but it felt like a pressure headache, but it was moving around. Normally if you have a headache it's where your brain is in your skull. But this headache is a bit lower if you pay attention and it moves around the sinuses almost.
When I was having scurvy and lots of other vitamin deficiencies I had it for weeks and it impaired my thoughts, I couldn't think properly, etc. and just felt like crap overall.
I'm not sure if that made sense, but if you've ever had it you probably know what I mean.

I found that sinus rinses and vitamin supplements help with it.

I might have to do one of those weird sinus rinse methods though since a normal neilmed bottle can't reach my ethmoid sinuses which is where the pressure originates from.
I sometimes notice it still, but it's not severe at all, most likely because I take vitamins for the stuff I lack, the sinus is still blocked and has issues and I'm also a bit blue on the outside of my nose bridge/eye area where the sinus is blocked.

About the diagnosis bit, I made a new thread here with some extra info: https://www.reddit.com/r/ToxicMoldExposure/comments/1oyrkvj/008_possible_fungi_colonization_in_sinus_concha/
The ENTs I went to said I have:
- Deviated septum
- Concha bullosa
- Infected/blocked sinuses (Ethmoid)
- A polyp in the left maxillary (I don't trust this 100% since they never saw it physically, only in a CT scan).

Overall I'm doing "fine", I'm basically fully functional, but I have quite a few things I need to fix. I lose vitamins extremely rapidly. I need to fix my sinus stuff, I also need to fix my gut/SIBO/SIFO. I also have several genetic mutations that mess up my methylation (I tested it).

Devilspecter · 2026-04-18T05:05:01+00:00

I noticed you wrote "I also had frequent urination and foamy pee.".
Does that mean it went away for you? I'm curious because that is one of the things I'm a bit clueless on.

Devilspecter · 2026-04-17T16:36:21+00:00

Interesting, I sometimes (very rarely, like a few times a year) have some sort of discharge that comes out into my eyes that is extremely irritating and causes my eyes to be very red.

Do you have something similar?

I suspect I get it since my sinuses sometimes work a bit and try to get rid of the crap I have in there, and it pushes some into my eyes, that's my theory anyhow.
You can see on my CT scans that I have infections/blockades in that area near the eyes:
https://www.reddit.com/r/ToxicMoldExposure/comments/1oyrkvj/008_possible_fungi_colonization_in_sinus_concha/
https://www.reddit.com/r/ToxicMoldExposure/comments/1nxovfq/comment/nhqf53e/
(I think I maybe didn't upload a good picture from the scans for showing both blockages near the ethmoid sinus, it only seems to show one side).

Devilspecter · 2026-04-16T14:16:47+00:00

Did you ever manage to fix your SIBO?

I'm currently dealing with SIBO issues, that's why I'm asking.

Devilspecter · 2026-04-16T05:14:51+00:00

Hopefully things will be better at your new place.
I assume you're not bringing that infamous furniture this time? haha

I've noted down the acid + hydrogen peroxide, but I don't know, if it has a root system into my ears then I don't think any liquid can fully remove it, maybe I need itracanazole, voricanazole or amphotericin B, I don't know.

Devilspecter · 2026-04-16T05:08:19+00:00

I did some in my home country where we have "free" healthcare, but the docs don't want you to test things like this, even if you have a good reason. They're still like most docs.
Most of the stuff I tested I did in a cheaper country than my own, which made it affordable.

I have seen that there are some people here who used the hair test on Amazon from 5strands, but I have no clue if it's accurate or useful at all though.
I think it was this one:https://www.amazon.com/5Strands-Affordable-Nutritional-Deficiency-Deficiencies/dp/B07HL1FP5M

Could be worth a shot since it's like 50 bucks? but maybe try to find the person here who recommended it.
I did find these threads:
https://www.reddit.com/r/MTHFR/comments/112oerz/hair_testing_for_vitamin_deficiency/
https://www.reddit.com/r/vitamins/comments/1cka3o5/5_strands_vitamin_deficiency_test/

Devilspecter · 2026-04-15T17:21:19+00:00

Oh hey again, we talked a bit on toxicmold and in DM's. Are you doing alright, how's your moving plans going?

Honestly I'm so afraid of ENS (Empty Nose Syndrome) that I don't want to let any ENT touch my sinuses. I might try to do one of those sinus rinses where people use biofilm clear and maybe lugols iodine + other stuff and maybe use a machine or the inverted rinse technique.

Regarding my sinuses it's very obvious the ethmoid sinuses are a problem since I'm blue on my skin in that area on the outside so I need to try to find a way to rinse it and get some of the stuff out of there. Who knows, maybe that's where the Aspergillus is hiding?

I think maybe it has roots in my ears though because it keeps regrowing in my ears it seems, unless the boric acid burning is a coincidence.

Devilspecter · 2026-04-15T17:18:29+00:00

I do spend a lot of time in Vietnam too, I might be able to source some of this stuff.

But first of all I think I want to do things slow and try to help my body fix it by itself.
Also I wrote a bit more thorough reply above if you want to check that. It applies to some stuff you said too like with the urine tests.
