Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRS) or Mold Toxicity

CIRS is a multisymptom, multisystem illness. CIRS patients have an out of control immune response due to biotoxins (mold growth from water damaged buildings, fungal elements, or toxigenic bact​eria). Many patients may have seen multiple doctors before finding one who knows how to diagnose this condition. Diagnosing CIRS takes a skilled physician with the right training on how to evaluate for CIRS. Many patients can completely heal from this devastating disorder and return to the active life they once knew.

IT IS ESTIMATED THAT 50% OF BUILDINGS IN AMERICA HAVE A HISTORY OF WATER DAMAGE.
