Sincerely xx oooo
How does one find a doctor who specializes in mold? Do they have a special term for this type of doctor?
I will be sure to fill everyone in when I return.
This particular type of doctor was a referal given to me by someone else who has been affected by mold.
I sure hope its worth the trip!
Hugs to youu all!

The train ride was quite pretty I might add but the cab driver from the train to the doctors office was horrid, he couldnt speak nor understand english well and he couldnt find the address.Grrr! I ended up being was late for the appointment.
Well the doctor and his staff were wonderful. He looked at some previous blood work that I brought with me and said my mold exposure is off the charts like nothing he has ever seen. My immune system is down to nothing also. Mind you this blood work is back from 2 years ago and the doctor that ordered these tests prescribed something to help pull the mold from my body called CSM. I have since been on the "no amylose diet" so hopefully the new blood work he did Monday will show improvement. I told him my main concerns were the face and head pain and the fatigue. He is questioning a fungus growing in my face and head. I have been wondering this as well. He said that he most definately can help me. He also asked me if I could come back one more time. He was sensitive about the fact that he knew how hard this must be for me to be traveling but he needs me to do it one more time after the blood work comes in. He will then be doing some type of allergy testing to see if I`am allergic to molds. He said if I`am, he can give me shots for it and hook me up with someone in the Boston area who can continue with them. I`am just taking it one day at a time. Right now I need to get a ct scan done and get that to him. His nurse and one of the secretaries were nice enough to drive me to the hotel since we closed the office. I have hope that he can help me. I dont look forward to doing this again too soon but, anxious to do anything that might help.
Thanks for asking about me everyone.
You guys are the best!
Hugs,
