I had a golden retriever that loved digging holes, he got blastomycosis and almost died, he dropped tons of weight but he was so hairy and had access to food all day I didn’t realize he wasn’t eating. He was very fluffy as goldens are. It took months of very expensive antifungals and I had to hand feed him boiled chicken and special dog food-it was gut wrenching trying to get him to eat. He never fought me…but I had to put food into his mouth and stroke his throat to try and get him to swallow. I offered it first and he would not eat…for months. One day, he finally ate on his own. It was a glorious day in our lives.

I'm not trying to be mean or unsensitve by saying this. I'm typing this because I truly care for your soul and want you to understand how we get to heaven. We as humans cannot love enough, give enough, or be kind enough to get to heaven. We cannot get to heaven on our own merit. This is because we have all sinned in some way or another. Telling a lie is a sin. Looking on someone with lost is a sin. Stealing, even a small thing is a sin. When we sin there must be a punishment for sin because God is not only love but He is Holy, He is just. But because He is love, He took it upon Himself to pay for our sin. Jesus took all of our sins and paid for all of our sins when He died on the cross. He was sinless but took our sins and was beaten and died so we could be forgiven. He died and 3 days latter He was raised from the dead and now lives forever. If we believe in our heart that Jesus died for our sins and rose the 3rd day and confess with our mouth we will be forgiven. God will make us new. We will then be able to have a relationship with God because of what Jesus did for us. I hope this helps.

I used to get sinus headaches after working with mulch. Especially leaf mulch. There's a particular leaf mold that I must be allergic to. It was undeniable. Several times after applying mulch in my yard as a kid, I came down with a severe sinus infection that was so intense it cause nausea and other flu like symptoms. I would literally be bedridden for a day or two. Also, I heard that there is another fungus or mold spore that occurs naturally in gypsum deposits or somehow gets into drywall during the manufacturing process. So most homes in America for pre inoculated with a carcinogenic spore, and of course most homes have water damage, humidity and moisture issues, etc that can easily activate those spores. That's why drywall immediately turns moldy when it gets soaked.

He was able to speak by waiting for the machine to exhale and using the exhaling breath to talk, but he had to wait until after his tracheostomy was healed. There was no time for this man to recover, so he was probably awake and on the vent long enough to tell them to take him off and say goodbye to his family.

Dude, I fought c-diff for over a year and ended up needing surgery to correct it and months of treatment. I feel you and I still live in fear of it coming back. Doctors are disturbingly undereducated on fungal infections and how to treat them efficiently. I hope things get better for you and that someday that constant fear will go away. It can feel like forever and like it's not gonna get better but all you can do is take it one day at a time and celebrate the little victories 👌 Also, be your own advocate. I also have an autoimmune disease and know how ridiculous and fatiguing the medical system can be, even on a good day. When you are dying from something, educating yourself and trouble shooting with your doctors is the only option. Don't be afraid to tell them what's not working, show them studies and get second options because at the end of the day you are the most invested in your care. Best of luck ❤

He may have had the fungus as well…if he was immunocompromised from his cancer it would not be that unusual to find it too. They have to do fungal cultures to diagnose Blastomycosis, so it would be unlikely to have diagnosed it incorrectly. The lung cancer I am not sure, maybe they didn’t suspect looking for anything else once they got a positive culture. My condolences. (I am a lab tech).

More importantly, get a referral to a specialist, as it pertains to your condition. NEVER take the word of a general practitioner. You know your body and the symptoms better than anyone else. If it doesn't feel like a cold, don't let a doctor say it is. Labs are required for confirmation of any infection. You are your keeper.

I live in Northern California and had gotten a pure bred German Shepherd. My dog got sick, lethargic, lack of appetite and constant pain all over her body. After many tests and with the help of a Internist Vet, he diagnosed her with Valley Fever. It's a fungal disease found in the desert. Of course she had never been to the desert or anywhere near. We did not soil or dirt hauled into our property. They found no reason for contracting this disease. After an 8 month period and being on very expensive daily medications, her body gave up the good fight 💔

In 3rd grade a classmate of mine died from this. Her parents owned a restaurant and she was there when she got it. Having someone my age die unexpectedly that young messed me up to this day. My anxiety about death came from that. All the adults kept saying it was super rare and not to worry. But how can you not at that age?

It IS extremely traumatizing for young children to have a classmate die, no matter the cause. Children are supposed to live and grow free from the worry of death with the illusion of immunity. To know that you could die at any time, randomly, as a child creates a special type of angst that shouldn't exist until one crosses from adolescence into adulthood. When one child dies, all of their peers age 10 years before they've developed the mechanisms to do so

As resilient as the human body is, surviving tumbles down mountain sides, falls from high speeds or high places, being burned over 90% of the body, yet things that are microscopic can ravage the brain, blood or nervous system. To ask to be removed from the system keeping him alive says a lot about his suffering and his understanding that life is over for him, I don't feel it's a selfish act at all. It enables his loved ones to start the grieving process and no longer hold on to false hopes, definitely a sad ending to someone who lives right. My deepest condolences to the friends and family

Extreme toxic mold survivor here. Fungus is all around us, we just don’t realize the damage it can do as drs rarely believe people can be sick with it so they rarely test for it. It killed my Gma and eventually my cat and almost killed me. I had to move to the desert to keep healing well and it’s working! I can handle these strains of mold far better than if I had stayed around Colorados toxic mold strains my body couldn’t fight off anymore. Toxic mold is horrible and dominant strains of mold are only going to continue reproducing and spreading in this world, especially with climate change making summers warmer, more floods and hurricanes and new build homes being built so poorly.

@@kimlarso Pain in the sinuses, then sharp pain in the eye area which was soon followed by a retracted upper eyelid (sort of like some older people have due to age), and the eye appeared different than the other (it had sunken 3mm down and back by the time I got CT spiral slice scans from my chosen surgeons). It was first identified at a regular walk-in clinic (x-rayed) which sent me to an EMT who confirmed it, but he didn’t feel comfrotable operating the multi-faceted issue with my eye so close to the collapsed sinus area, because a mistake could lead to double vision or blindness. The sinus cavity itself showed up in the images as a horizontal line instead of circular shaped, which was evidence it had collapsed and created negative pressure inside my skull. Do not ignore sinus pain. Go to a sinus specialist to get checked out and cleaned out if necessary. Better to be safe than sorry. The orbital reconstructive surgeon installed a Medpore titanium floor for my eye since my bone had disintegrated. In restoring my eye position, he also restored the position of my upper eyelid and it is normal again, no longer retracted. After a few hours in the operating room, the entire process was complete. I am thankful to them for the results. 🙏🏼 Added: I would also like to add that prior to my surgery date, I was sent to get full allergen testing, skin & blood, and it turns out confirmed on paper that I truly have a heavy mold allergy, among others, along with recommendations that I also avoid food which contain mold, fungus, and yeast, such as cheese, mushrooms, bread and other baked items, certain yeast-containing alcoholic drinks (although I’ve never been much of an alcohol consumer), etc. Of course I also have to avoid mold exposure and repetitive mold exposure. I can feel it straightaway when I enter a building with mold. Bathrooms and basements can be particularly hazardous, as well as renovation properties.
