Sleepy girl

---

When I was ten I had exposure to mono and remember staying home from school a lot. I was not tested, but my step father had the illness and was in bed for three weeks. It seemed like I kept getting ill with various conditions after that time.

Fast forward to the age of 31, in 1992, when I was under a lot of stress with financial issues, my brother was killed, and my marriage failed. Then I realized I was very sick and the doctors could not find anything except a high white blood cell count and recommended hospitalization. Sometimes I would have to pull over in my car to sleep as I could not keep awake. Something was wrong, but with a clean diet and lower stress it became manageable. However it was hard to hold a job because work stress made me ill every time and I had to have time off to recover.

At a job in 2015 I had high exposure to mold and suffered with acute bronchitis. Since then it is very clear that I am allergic to mold. Unfortunately I live in a very wet area in a house that has had water damage. After that initial exposure, which left me with all the symptoms of CFS/ME, I had infectious testing done and discovered that I have had antibodies for Epstein Barr, Parvovirus, Cytomegalovirus, Herpes 1 & 2, and the new Androvirus.

Currently I'm working very hard on de-toxing with diatomaceous earth, sodium hydrochlorite, oregano oil, olive leaf extract, and lemon/ginger/jalepano vegetable juice. Also, very powerful air cleaners run 24/7 in every room. It would be good to leave my "hidden-mold" home, but I'm in a very special relationship and the man cannot leave very easily.

Now it's been three days and I have not needed a nap to get through the day...so there is hope!
