Sebaceous Cysts in Nose

Thank you Rob. I healed a tooth infection through garlic. I know it's very potent, appreciate it.

Thank you Sherri for all the ideas. I m still struggling. I have multiple chemical sensitivity and even after going to ent not sure diagnosed correctly. Right now trying saline nasal spray. Merry Christmas to u.

Hello Debbie,

You are welcome and I hope you also had a wonderful Christmas & New Years.

You mention a significant clue, Multiple Chemical Sensitivities (MCS), which could provide an answer.

MCS is most often caused by mold and other biotoxins associated with water damaged-buildings, WDB (heavy metal toxicity is often additionally involved.)

And, over 90% of chronic sinus conditions (cysts/ulcers) involve a fungal infection which is why antibiotic therapy fails.

Since you have both conditions the odds of a mold issue are higher. And, if you have had any water damage to your home, car or work site then it is almost certain.

I cleared MCS and several sinus conditions (as did my husband) when MOLD/WDB issues were addressed & we learned that this was a missing link to other health issues. Washington/PNW is one of the top four states for mold illness (rainy, humid, temperate climate).

Two common causes for sinus ulcers and cysts:

1. MAI - Mold Associated Illnesses

MAI & WDB illnesses (CIRS - Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome) are used interchangeably, both are biotoxin illnesses.

WDB toxins SEVERLY damage the sinus mucosal tissues and include mold spores, mycotoxins (produced by mold/fungi), endotoxins (produced by bacteria), and many chemical toxins such as mVOCs (multiple volatile organic compounds).

2. ECTOPARASITIC INFECTIONS

These infections can be caused by mites or very tiny parasitic flies such as Drosophilus suzuki, midge flies, etc. There are increasing cases of “Paedogenesis” fly infections in the US (larval reproduction under the skin without fertilization). This is one of the reasons for the boom in the once rare head, nose, face and throat cancers.

Sometimes, both infections are present since many ectoparasites require yeast/fungus or bacteria in their growth cycles (reproduction, food source); and, yeast/fungus attract many of these insects.

NASAL ULCERS & POLYPS ARE IMPORTANT TO TREAT

20% of the population develop sinus ulcers/cysts due to a gene defect in the T-cell receptor site - called “SUPER ANTIGEN DISEASE MECHANISM.”

This causes an extreme hyper-inflammatory response (9000X) in the sinuses and systemic toxicity which damages every system in the body - this is an abnormal immune reaction.

The other 80% of the population do not get severe symptoms though they are getting damage which worsens over time since their sinuses are also colonized with mold/fungus.

This gene defect causes eosinophil infiltration into the sinus mucosa which destroys the cilia & creates a pit in the mucosal lining allowing for a fungal/bacterial/biofilm infection to dig in causing ulcerations/cysts, sinusitis, polyp formation or MARCoNS. These form due to an abnormal immune reaction to the fungus, 93% of the time.

Polyps can become so bad that meningitis or a brain abscess can develop so these polyps have to be removed.

TO EFFECTIVELY CLEAR THESE ULCERS/CYSTS BOTH THE FUNGUS/MOLD IN THE AIR & IN THE SINUSES MUST BE REMOVED OR THE FUNGAL BIOFILM WILL NEVER GO AWAY. NOTHING DEFEATS BREATHING IN 3,000 GALLONS OF TOXIC AIR A DAY - THERE WILL NEVER BE ENOUGH DRUGS, NOTHING WILL WORK. Must use both antifungals & antibiotics.

IF THERE IS PUS (STAPH infection), sinuses must be treated - see an ENT:

1. DOC - see an ENT to verify a fungus problem. Can get a CT scan, to identify possible fungal masses, without dyes since there will still be enough data. However, CT scans can look normal because they don't show fungal spores, mycotoxins and MVOCs so a nasal culture will show this.

2. CLEAN AIR

Get rid of the fungus/mold in the air (remove source & use air purifiers such as Medify Air MA40 &/or a fan ionizer called the Ultimatum - best).

3. IRRIGATION TREATMENT

First - lavage/irrigate with saline using Nasopure or Grossan irrigator, BID.
Second, lavage with SSKI, 5 drops/8 oz of saline. Or, use CitriDrops same amount. These kill fungi, viruses and bacteria.
Third, nebulize with Amp B or Vorionazole, 2x/day. Lavage alone is not enough.
Fourth, ideally you also want to use O2 face mask 100%, must be 10 liter/min 1 hour BID or 2h QD. Do not use an oxygen concentrator in a bad environment unless it is backed up to an IQ Air Purifier. Otherwise, use oxygen tank. Need to use oxygen to open the closed sinus capillaries which will then enable all the other treatments to work much faster. These toxins are very caustic in the capillary wall and slam it shut with inflammation.

4. ENDOSCOPIC CYCLONE IRRIGATION

May be required to remove the fungal infection especially if all other treatments do not work.

Cyclone Endoscopy opens up all 8 sinus cavities which are then irrigated & suctioned with the Cyclone machine using AMP B or Voriconazole antifungals. This kills and sucks out all the mycotoxins, fungal spores, masses, etc. Many severe symptoms & illnesses disappear after this procedure.

HOW TO TEST FOR A MOLD ISSUE

Below are some of the most accurate, easy and up-to-date tests that anyone can do to see if mold mycotoxins are present:

1. MOLD QUESTIONNAIRE
Take test on sinusitiswellness.com. Grade your condition, slight to severe. People that are really sick, severe, need to get into a mold-free environment - this is the number one treatment.

2. “TAP TEST”
Easily tests the quality of the air you live in - this is better than the traditional ERMI test.
Take an SDA Agar Mold Plate, turn it upside down and “tap” it 3-4 times on the clothes you are wearing - back of legs, arms, chest, etc. Send it to Immunolytics.com. Order SDA Agar Mold Plates from Sinus5.com. Colony count must be 0.4 or less.

NOTE: high fungal counts are always seen when “tap testing” pets - never sleep with pets or you will not get better.

3. SDA AGAR PLATE TEST - HOME
This tests your home for mold spores and mycotoxins.
If you are chronically or severely ill you want a score of 0-2 mold count colonies with a 1 hour gravity plate exposure. Otherwise, 0-4 is normal.
Test the rooms you spend the most time in and include your car and work site. Or, the Particle Count should be under 50,000 @ 0.2 - 0.3 microns per 0.1 cu ft.

4. URINE MYCOTOXIN TEST
Real Time Labs, Mosaic Dx or Vibrant Wellness.
If mycotoxins test in the urine then you know it is EVERYWHERE in the body, including the brain and nasal mucosa which have the highest concentrations of mycotoxins in the body.

So you will find it on an MRI scan, in the nasal culture and in a blood test.
* Serum fungal IgG test - shows antibodies to mold
* CT or MRI Scan of sinuses to check for fungal masses. Many can not handle the dyes but there is still enough data to make the diagnosis.

NOTE: a “negative” test can either mean it is truly negative or the person tested is highly infected and their body is unable to detoxify the mycotoxins. Hence, it is always best to do a “Provocation Test” prior to collecting urine to ensure that mycotoxins are mobilized into the urine:

1. Sweat Therapy
Near IR sauna, Hot Tub, Hot Bath, etc. to induce profuse sweating the night before and even up to 1 hour prior to collecting urine. Contraindicated for those with POTS, adrenal issues or MS.
2. Liposomal Oral Glutathione
Liposomal glutathione or acetyl glutathione is used for a week prior to the urine collection to mobilize the mycotoxins so they will show up in the urine. Take 500 mg, 2x/day, for 1 week prior to urine collection. May need to start at 100 mg, 2x/day, and work up to 500 mg, 2x/day, empty stomach, am & pm.

Both methods mobilize these toxins and if they make a person feel worse this means mycotoxins are indeed being released so they don't need to wait a week to take the urine test. A person feels far worse because their body is now able to mobilize and detoxify these toxins but at a rate that is too high for their body to clear hence, the symptoms.

5. NASAL FUNGAL CULTURE
See Labs or physician - if this tests positive it is not necessary to do a urine test since it will automatically be positive.
And, must determine if there is a fungal mass which must be removed.

Almost all patients have cognitive symptoms and these don't leave unless the mycotoxins are out of the sinuses and brain.

6. SMELL OR SEE TESTS
Do you smell and/or see mold/mildew? If so, you have a “mold issue.” This is a super easy & accurate test, do not discount.

People that have been exposed to WDBs/Mold for a while can damage olfactory nerves and lose the ability to smell mold which is why “seeing” the mold or water-damaged area is also important.

There are many other blood tests that can be done though they are prescribed by a practitioner and are often used during treatment.

MOLD ILLNESS TREATMENT
This requires a long post.
However, the single most powerful treatment is removing the fungus/mold from the air, body and belongings/environment. This is THE KEY, focus on this first.

1. CLEAN AIR - more important than ANY other treatment since no other treatment works long term, or even short term, until this is corrected. FIRST & #1 TREATMENT STEP.

Also, high EMF sources (5G, other “Gs”, Wi-Fi, cellphones, towers, etc) induce exponential mold growth in the environment and in the human body in addition to knocking out melatonin production in the brain. MELATONIN is a huge immune system component with powerful anti-cancer properties - "hello ART!"

Dr Donald Dennis, MD, FACS (Atlanta Center for ENT and Facial Plastic Surgery) - “… the more mold or mycotoxins you breathe in the worse your symptoms become … in addition, if you are living, working or driving in a high mold environment your chance of recovery is small and the likelihood of developing opportunistic diseases is high … the good news is that it is easy to test your environment and, various air purifiers and Micro Balance Health Products … can reduce the fungal load until the source of the problem is corrected.”

Wishing you complete healing,

Sherri
