Hi, everyone!
Has anyone here read Mold Warriors by Richie C. Shoemaker, MD??
Tried the clorestramine protocol he describes???
If tried, with or without his vision tests and protocol???
Found any websites dedicated to users of this method of eliminating mold toxins from our bodies???
I have leaned the hard way not to trust MD's about their pet theories without gathering LOTS of independnet data to help evaluate their claims!!!
Hope someone here at CZ has some first-hand experiences to share.

This is a reply to # 1,696,390Yes, I have used it and it works! I have used it for years and now, only when mold sypmtoms appear. When I get into a moldy envirmonment, my elbows begin to hurt (painfully) and I use Cholestyramine at night only for several days and the pain goes away. I originally used the protocol for Lyme disease which I've had twice. Get a presciption and take it! You will be glad you did. And if you can see Dr. Shoemaker, do that too. He treated me for the Lyme and the mold. It's the toxins that will debilitate you and they are easy to remove with the Cholestyramine. Good Luck!

MoreThis is a reply to # 1,697,254Yes, I take Cholestyramine once a day---and it has worked wonders for my IBS-D. I'm just really annoyed that for years the doctors kept blowing me off when I talked about how limiting the IBS-D was for me. So, finally, my doctor listened and prescribed it. BTW, the generic name for it is "Prevalite" --- and I have mentioned using it before in my posts here at CZ.
Just one thing to note --- if you take other prescription meds, be sure to read the Cholestyramine directions carefully---you really have to time when you take it.- Re: Chlorestramine: Dosage??? #53126

MoreThis is a reply to # 1,697,360Thanks, you two!!!
Can you tell me how the dosage was calculated, and how many times a day you took it????
Realistically, I will not be able to access a specialty doc.
Will be getting my Kaiser personal physician to prescribe, probably allegedly for high chloresterol, the more common use for this med. She is unlikely to be of any help, so I will essentially have to be supervising myself.
Anything else you can say regarding length of time you took at first, if you kept taking it and why, if you stopped and why, if you go back to taking, for how long, etc. will be very helpful and much appreciated!!!!
Thanks again!!!

This is a reply to # 1,699,322You're welcome. Ideally, you should take it before every meal. However, if you take other prescription meds, you may be prevented from doing this. For example, you need to take other prescription meds 1 hour before or 4-6 hours after taking Cholestyramine. So...due to these restrictions, I take it once a day.
I got my prescription from my Kaiser primary care physician. She prescribed it to me to deal with my IBS-D issues that got worse after my gallbladder was removed.
My prescription comes in a large container with a measuring cup. I put one measuring cupful of the powder into about 4 ozs. of liquid (you can't use it in carbonated drinks) and stir thoroughly. You have to make sure you use the measuring cup that comes with the medicine so that you get the exact dose.
I plan on continuing to take this med. It has basically given me my life back!

This is a reply to # 1,699,373You're welcome! When I first started out, the Cholestyramine was prescribed by Dr. Shoemaker at 4x per day. You do need to be careful when you take it based on other medication because it "binds" the stuff in your system and you don't want it to "bind" your other medications. I also bought a small hand held blender that makes a huge difference in how much better it mixes in water. It comes out less "gritty" this way! It was intended at a cholesterol lowering drug, so maybe you can get your PCP to prescribe it for that.
Good Luck in curing your issues!- Thanks so much for yr help! n/m LD Di 14 y 5,127
