People Are Allergic To Me (PATM)

People are allergic to me. And a lot of other people around the world are suffering from this condition. Doctors do not beleive the reports, and most of them claim that we are crazy but we all know that we're far from being crazy. This condition causes so much heartache and stress. I have sent emails to CDC, NIH and WHO with no help. Would you please address this issue?

I too seem to fog up windows on buses and cars…. I very often get people commenting that 'it is so hot' when they are near me. I think I generate a lot of heat through body or/and breath. Even when the temperature of air is normal or cool people comment that it is hot when they are close to me.
I don't know if this is related to patm.
I do sweat a lot from the head and back for some reason even fom just walking a little bit. I only started sweating a lot like this maybe just before or close to the time I noticed I had patm (many years ago :( ).

Ps I did have tonsillectomy and it did improve patm quite a bit but I still have patm :(

Read this please:
"Abstract

Breath analysis is a young field of research with great clinical potential. As a result of this interest, researchers have developed new analytical techniques that permit real-time analysis of exhaled breath with breath-to-breath resolution in addition to the conventional central laboratory methods using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Breath tests are based on endogenously produced volatiles, metabolites of ingested precursors, metabolites produced by bacteria in the gut or the airways, or volatiles appearing after environmental exposure. The composition of exhaled breath may contain valuable information for patients presenting with asthma, renal and liver diseases, lung cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, inflammatory lung disease, or metabolic disorders. In addition, oxidative stress status may be monitored via volatile products of lipid peroxidation. Measurement of enzyme activity provides phenotypic information important in personalized medicine, whereas breath measurements provide insight into perturbations of the human exposome and can be interpreted as preclinical signals of adverse outcome pathways. "

What do you think about that?
Personnaly I think there woulf be some material able to detect particuls found in our breath which are the cause of the reactions

Yeah, it should show up by now either in your glands or bones blood tests. Your bones should be brittle as hell and show up on x-ray too. That’s good; at least we know hyperthyroidism is ruled out.  

Personally I lacked the confidence as SIBO being the problem, but since you're using the same antimicrobial that is available to all of us, the results itself gives hints to what it is. Besides we need to eliminate each condition whenever possible. But if it's working then it's great news.
Thanks for all the info.

I don't have any tumors and I am not calcium deficient according to my last yearly checkup which just a couple of weeks ago. They drew blood checked my cholesterol level, calcium level and my vitamin D level and everything is normal.

As far as my medication for SIBO...it's to early to tell whether it will help or not but I can say that PATM reactions have diminished quite a bit.

According to surgeons if you have had hyperthyroidism for 20 yrs., your tumour would be the size of a lemon on your neck. But subsequently you've had patm for over 40 yrs. therefore I suppose you have a giant orange hanging from neck by now, and probably kidney stones the size of golf balls or at least lost one of your kidneys by now.

Do you see any of these signs on you or perhaps weak bones given your age?

Have you had a thorough test to show elevated level of calcium in your blood/urine?

If indeed, then that’s proof that hyperthyroidism has direct links to patm. If not, then we have to rule that out.

Ray, please let us know of your trials asap. Whatever you feel now is probably what ‘s going to be as you progress further. I’m only after the outcome.
