There is an address in the Yeast Connection book where to write for a list of doctors that deal with this condition specifically. You send 5.00 to The International Health Foundation, P.O. Box 3494, Jackson, TN 38303. They will at least send you the list of doctors in your area. Sounds by Rollercoaster tho, it may not be our answer. I'm still waiting to hear from my rheumie to see what he thinks. He is really up-to-date on fibo. I would have thought he would have mentioned it to me by now if he thought it worthwhile. If you are sensitive to molds, you need to make sure you clean the drainage pan from your fridge - the mold grows fast and sometimes you can't even see it. I clean it weekly cause everytime your fridge goes on, it spreads the molds everywhere. If you have a cellar, run a dehumidifier. Carpeting - the best thing is to remove it. Venting is important when cooking. These are some of things I've been working on. I also read that if you are sensitive to molds, you are more apt to react to dust also. It's true with me. I've started to remove all the carpeting in my house. It's been costly and it's put me in the poor house. I will say the rooms that I have removed the carpeting, I do feel better in those rooms. Keep in mind, I've never reacted to mold/dust on allergy tests. Hope this helps! I also react to a lot of chemical stuff. Have you noticed you react to newspaper print? Scented candles? (another perk from fibro) Dawn

Thanks for the info. I've tried eating from that book (yeast connection) and I can't say I've noticed any difference. I do notice if I'm in a well filtered cooled building, i.e. certain medical facilities that I feel a lottttt better. Do you notice this? It's almost as if my whole body stops swelling and my muscles are like 80% improved. Just curious if any one else has noted this. Dawn
