Mold and Biotoxin Illness
Do you feel tired, even when you’ve gotten plenty of sleep the night before? Do you have multiple symptoms but when you go to the doctor there is no identifiable problem? You may be suffering from mold or biotoxin exposure.
While many people think that having low energy is a byproduct of not getting enough sleep, it can be more serious and actually be a symptom of Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome or CIRS for short.
Signs of CIRS from exposure to mold or other biotoxins include Fatigue, Weakness, Aches, Muscle Cramps, Unusual Pain, Ice Pick Pain, Headache, Light Sensitivity, Red Eyes, Blurred Vision, Tearing, Sinus Problems, Cough, Shortness of Breath, Abdominal Pain, Diarrhea, Joint Pain, Morning Stiffness, Memory Issues, Focus/Concentration Issues, Word Recollection Issues, Trouble Learning New Knowledge, Confusion, Disorientation, Skin Sensitivity, Mood Swings, Appetite Swings, Sweats (especially night sweats), Temperature Regulation or Dysregulation Problems, Excessive Thirst, Increased Urination, Static Shocks, Numbness, Tingling, Vertigo, Metallic Taste and Tremors.
If you find that you are experiencing more than 6 of the above symptoms, it is vital you investigate the possibility of biotoxin illness or mold as being a root cause of the issue. In children, biotoxin illness may show up in a single system, then progressing with further time and exposures to the multi-system, multi-symptom illness commonly seen in adults.
