I bring this up because the night before my TM attack, I had opened a
new jar of a cheese-and-salsa dip and found mold in it. I put it back in the
refrigerator to take back to the store. When we brought this up to the
neurologists, we were told molds had to be ingested to hurt you; there wasn't
a case of molds affecting anyone by being inhaled. My husband even called the
CDC and was told the same thing.
Now, I know that water-damage-mold is not cheese-dip-mold and pulmonary
bleeding is not TM, but to my husband and I, the possibility of inhaling
toxins in molds reopens the question (never really closed for us) of whether
there was a connection between this mold and TM.
Coming up with a cause may or may not help lead to a cure, but it would
help with the mystery of "Where did this come from?"
Did anyone who watched the program catch the name of the person from the
CDC who researched this case?
Thanks,
Barbara
