Got it. Like I said, not trying to convince you to do anything. My physical problems were so related to environmental illness that it made caregiving a bit easier but when starting from bow sick I was u can improve a lot and still need care, so I still needed care despite getting better. I mean I'd probably have to improve like 800 percent or more before I didn't need care giving lol from my lowest baseline
Right. I feel like if it was as easy as a single measurable variable tho wed have an easy fix for this illness. I'm still waiting for someone to do air samples in homes of me/cfs patients who are most symptomatic and out them under w microscope.
Also which can't pull up now, read other reasons to avoid them.
it does seem like everyone has different reactions. ive been told that bc of mcas i need to stay away from morphine or various opioid pain meds, but i dont really react to them, or that i must eat a low histamine diet. whereas some people with mcas seem to not benefit from mold avoidance, whereas thats almost all that helps my mcas (and me/cfs). so i dont think we should make generalizations unless there is really strong evidence for them. maybe an ionizer wouldnt help you but might help mcasmike. i dont have personal experience with them, but they're supposed to replicate to an extent the feeling of sea air and how the ions there cleanse the air.Ionizer I'm highly reactive too.
I've heard that hawaii can be surprisingly tough for some reason. I've always wanted to go there , and Jen felt good there. But there are lots of moldies fleeing there and doing better parts of the mainland. But re the sea air thing, it depends on air direction and I think effect is maximized when u are really close to the ocean. In coastal areas with otherwise bad air I can get relief from getting brought very close to the sea, like thirty feet or so
I think ionizers may make a small amount of ozone. But it's a different purpose than big amounts of ozone and I don't think they necessarily all do that. Ionization can cause dust to fall out of the air I believe , it can clean the air via electric charge in a way more helpful than a simple air purifier. This is speaking from what I've heard. I never tried one in a house. I'm curious about if there's a single air purifier, like some of the high end ones, that actually get out mold toxins, for my own sake. It's eZier to find good outdoor air than a good building so a good airflow and air purification setup seems in order, but the expensive ones , some lookimpressive and some like scams. Lots of debate from consumer reports and people at the company on how well molekules work
Ionizers don't make much ozone , and I don't believe they necessarily have to make ozone they're not ozone makers, which make toxic full amounts of ozone to clean places while one isn't in them.
