    Thanks Bernadette! He is generally in good health , eats and sleeps well. I am supplementing with Magnesium, Vit D, and Zinc as per Dr Roze’s recommendation ( btw you are very lucky to have Dr Roze in Dubai! I have looked everywhereee in Europe for a biological dentist and it’s been impossible)

    Would the CellCore IS-BORR be given as a prophylaxis or only if he shows signs?

    I’ve also been reading a lot about testing and it seems not many tests are reliable, so not sure if I should test in a few weeks. The good news is the pediatrician here told me they get many kids per week with tick bites but very few develop into Lyme

    Hi Bernadette,

    I have the same questions with milk and yoghurt, I don’t know if arm but from checking they don’t sell milk. I usually buy raw local milk for my kids but I always wonder if this is the best choice as the local raw milk is not organic.
    Is this better than the long-life organic milk? As this is usually the only one you find? Same for the yoghurt, local ones are made from the same milk, not organic.

    Do you think this can affect girls’ development? My 8-year-old girl shows minimal body development which doesn’t belong to her age and I wonder y the diary can be triggering this. Thank you!

     , Thank you B, I am in Dubai. How to know more about this Fair Care program? 

    yeah, i am doing baking soda water gargling but its not helping much.
    i will give a try to oil pulling.

     

  • Thank you! I have actually prioritised the thyroid section this morning and afternoon!

    To your questions:
    1. Protein may have been a little low, but have ramped that up in the last 2 months. min 100g per day
    2. Digestion has been fine. Occasionally mildly constipated lately, as goiter and thyroid symptoms have been worse
    3. We eat seafood 1-2 per week, and I have iodine in a *fairly decent* pre/postnatal supplement. I’ve been testing with topical iodine skin test and it disappears very quickly
    4. No – I am limited by UK NHS testing with no private blood clinic in my area right now (hence the follow-up qt about tests I could do in Thailand)
    5. They have tested my antibodies in my most recent testing, but I do not have the results yet. 

    I am able to get all the main thyroid panel except reverse T3 in Thailand next week.

    Most recent TSH was 61.7 and T4 was 4.4. Symptoms are fatigue, occasional mild constipation and a little dry skin. Hair, nails and milk supply are all good. 

    Stress is definitely a factor. 

    Eliminating gluten, dairy and eggs from today. All were high quality and I made my own sourdough bread, so gluten was always fermented. Other than that almost no processed food.

    Thanks!

  • ALSO I have the option for some more extensive blood testing when Im in Thailand next week, so any advice would be welcome!

    Hi Bernadette
    1- I got one report dated March 2022, kindly find it attached

    2- I was not sick at the time of blood test.

    5- No I didnt move to a new house or work place , yes my home had a leak/which created paint marks in one room, I paint it then again it has appeared in 6 months,

    You maybe aware how is weather in Dubai specialy in summer so humidity is always a big factor, As for my family members Iam glad and thank god no one has any symptoms,

    There is no doubt that detoxing mold is very helpful for anyone , Not only my case , however is a route cause! Could be !

    Can we confirm that it is the route cause in my case , I feel that it could be a big factor that I didnt count, so I will invistegate my home and work place, check if there is any leak, repaint, remove all wall papers which may create mold by time and do deep cleaning.

    As for the test to rule out/confirm mold illness I would love to go for it, please let me know which tests and I guess it will be covered by my health insurance,

    I just watched the videos, it is very helful, organized and informative, I liked the assessment machine ideas this really helps to check my home,
    as for my body test Iam not sure if my insurance would cover that but I guess if we specificly mention my blood test requirements they will accept.

    Waiting to hear from you

    1- Unfortunatly, I dont have any blood test prior to being diagnosed, I never thought that I should save them.

    2- Iam not sure if I got your question right , but if it is related to my biopsies, I made on June 2022 from my lung , Aug 2022 from my lymph nodes to make sure it is not lymphoma, Spinal tap on Jan 2023 to confirm the nerusarcoidosis.

    3- No I dont have any.

    4- Category 1: Score 3, Category 2: Score 2, Category 3: Score 6 Total mold risk = 11
    Cellcore Assessment forms mold = 18

    5- Last time I felt vibrant and well and active was on May 2022, on June 2022 without any notice I had hard breathing and pulpitation issues so I went to hospital for emergency and they made a heart CT scan to find out that my lung has some issues then I made a Chest CT scan where all the diagnose options were still open then we went for biopsy, to be more specific and explain how was my life on May or even before, I go to gym 5 days a week , eat healthy food most of the time, howeve I used to take supplements like Amino Acid BCAA, Creatine and protein powder.

    Medication:
    Thanks for the valuable information, I would like to highlight that for the past 12 month and in addition to my daily medicines, iam on the following supplements:
    – Antioxidants (reserve two times daily)
    – Curcumin two times daily
    – Magnesium once every other day
    – Omega 3 once daily
    – Vitamin D 20,000 weekly

    I also checked your post of food forms of antioxidants and this for sure could help,
    As for sleep I always sleep well, however some nights I face nightmares as a side effect of my medicines,

    Additional tests:
    I will deffinetly ask my doctor for Vitamin D test , however please let me know if you advice to have additonal test beside my regulat tests,
    I would also ask for Zinc and Vitamin A test

    Diet:
    As for the AIP diet, it is really hard to follow, the program at e book, specialy me and my wife works from morning to evening, but I will try 80% to follow and 100% avoid the restricted food.

    I would rather go for food elimination program which sounds more convenient to my case,
    I just want to highlight here that I have followed both programs earlier but yet my lymph nodes are still has inflamation and this has been proven by the Pet scans,
    Maybe the attack at my body was on high levels earlier, my goal now is to have more control and reach to remission.

    Going back to your message is just so refreshing and inspiring, I will just consider every word and take it into my consideration, in the other hand I would always like to know about your advice , it is very important for me for a better outcome,
    Kind regards

    Hello!

    Just checking in on this topic.   Which program did you end up choosing?

    I am in a similar boat. I had finished my university 10 years ago with MBA in HR but now I am developing so much interest in Functional medicine. But don’t know where to start from. I am based in the UAE so searching for online options or some university that I can go to locally.
