I think PATM might be fungus or mold and the reason why we have no success at getting rid of it is because of these reasons:
-Cavities are not just “bad bacteria”, it is also caused by fungus resulting in decay. We usually treat just bad bacteria cause that is all is advertised to us from toothpaste companies.
-"Citric acid" they put into everything from canned foods and household cleaners to skin care and body products is actually from black mold.
-Antibiotics come from mold, that is in our meat and dairy products
-Inflammatory foods induces fungus in the body
-Antibiotics work to overpower mold, a true antibiotic is oil of oregano or even healthy good bacteria. The presence of good bacteria can over populate a shared space with bad bacteria causing the bad bacteria to die off, thus it is an antibiotic. However the antibiotics we get from doctors is derived from mold.
-Some people cannot remove mold from their bodies efficiently, so they have to rely on binders.
-Pesticides contain mold.
-Milk is a perfect food in nature, but commercial milk is toxic. Milk is a complete food and grass fed milk is higher in sulphur which is an antifungal it also has a balance omega 3&6ratio, commercial milk is pumped up will antibiotics, which is fungus, and the milk has an imbalance of omega 3&6 so it causes inflammation.
-Nuts like peanuts (not a true nut) is high in fungus.
-Seed oils are inflammatory foods which induces fungus
-Different cheeses uses different fungus.
-Benign yeast can become pathogenic fungus, maybe due to toxic conditions
-Mediterranean Sea salt is a balanced salt and salt prevents the growth of mold and helps stimulate digestion.
-Sugar cane is feeding fungus. Honey is fine because it breaks down to hydrogen peroxide and other stuff apparently. But some honeys have antibiotics in them
-minerals salts are toxic and prevents proper bodily functions ( my experience, please contact your salt provider/company and ask them for the mineral content).
bitter herbs helps to stimulate digestive acids to help with smooth digestion which helps with efficient removal of toxins.
powerful antifungals are Thyme essential oil (number one for thymol), Oil of oregano (powerful antibiotic), Cinnamon, Clove, blackwalnut, wormwood (powerful parasitic and a great bitter herb) <-------- powerful biblical herbs
Psalms 51:7 Purge me with hyssop ( apparently wild oregano) , and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
weak antifungals tea tree, lavender you know the ones most advertised that barely help
symptom of mold/fungi is much like symptoms of parasites, these are the lists:
itchy skin, dry skin, visible fungus on the skin, nails and scalp, dehydration, constipation, hormonal imbalance, skin crawling feelings, allergies, lack of concentration, brain fog, memory issues, bad dreams, hair fall, bad smell, teeth decay, spore releasing, poor gut health, skin issues, some even say ADD and ADHD
All that we have tried usually helps with removing mold from the body, for example, high amounts of vitamin D, saunas, tea tree oil -weak antifungal, ammonia, apple cider vinegar, fixing cavities, sulphur soaps (for mites) , bleach baths, diet change, going to the beach where it is high in salinity, getting out of the environment that could be causing mold, better breathing, parasite cleanse...etc.
make sure you check your homes for mold, I saw that people used ultra violet flashlight to see mold on surfaces. maybe you do not know you have a mold issue in your environment. some are not visible although it usually has a smell.
to clean up mold in the environment, you need a HEPA vacuum or fan, wash clothes daily with hot water, possibly stay away from laundry detergents with citric acid, clean with 10% cleaning vinegar or sodium percarbonate.
sodium percarbonate works wonders on mold, great for cleaning bathroom grout. Make sure your shower curtain is changed or washed regularly. The most important thing is removing mold for your environment.
so this is why I think no one really is successful, because fungus is constantly in our daily life. And we have been gaslighted to think this is in our minds- it really could be since mold can living in the brain. it would be great if people tested blood for fungus or have skin samples tested for fungus.
some people may have leaky gut if they suffer from food allergies. it is important to test your blood for those allergens so that when you change your diet to eat foods that are not hurting you, you can recover properly.
not everyone can make these changes but do the ones that you know would benefit you the most if you think you have mold.
I have a shockingly similar experience with patm. I never thought of patm in the way that it was something that evaporated throughout the day until i read your post for the first time but it makes a lot of sense. When you said "weird stuff left on my body" is that in reference to a substance that dries your fingertips and is kind of black when you scrape it off? I think that even if there are different forms of patm, we have the same type because i only have patm in my hair too and i also have the greyish water.
How about you tell us your lifestyle. That's what we want to compare to our own.
