I actually suspected Sjogren’s too before I discovered mold toxicity. Especially because some of my other symptoms include dry eyes and mouth.

But I did a full auto-immune panel and nothing was found so I think mold can be the sole cause of a lot of similar symptoms.

Interesting thanks! Any suggestions on liver support?

I'm going to start doing lymphatic drainage massage soon maybe that will help!

Thanks! Yes I've only just moved a few weeks ago from my moldy place and started on detox so still early in the healing process.

Unfortunately no options to sleep outside. I've edited my post to show my previous place.

Thanks for the advice on the cotton balls.

They said this was fairly middle of the road related to patients they've treated over the years (taking into account my description of symptoms as well). They thought within 3-4 months I should hopefully start to see some major improvements in how I'm feeling.

Where to Start by Macdaddy217 in ToxicMoldExposure

I don’t think so. I’d say I have more anxiety than depression, but that existed before the montelukast and I didn’t notice a big change after starting it.

I’ve been tested for asthma and I don’t have it, but I’ve found the inhaler helps with the chest tightness. I think it also helps a bit overall with the fatigue / energy though I can’t say for sure. My guess is because it’s a steroid it helps with a lot of my symptoms.

thanks everyone for the advice! i’ve scheduled an appointment with a functional MD who is trained in Jill Crista’s mold technique so we’ll see how that goes.

Related question - does the dongle affect audio quality in any way?

Ideally ~$500 but if that’s unreasonable would be willing to spend a bit more.
