Nice web , all expleined about histamine intolerance syndrome.
All this seems to relate to us.

Enyithing that relate to detox fases, histamine clearance methylation support
mc stabilisation, its seams to help poisers a lot.

In order to stabilize the mast cells, I am taking the drug that the specialists have indicated to me: Disodium cromoglycate. Quantum told me that he takes on his prepack since some time ago some natural Mast Cell stabilizers. I will consider for later in case. At first I did feel that I noticed some improvement but also It is said that the effect can take between one to two weeks. For now only one week has passed. And I'm not sure if It is doing anything. I will continue taking it anyway. I also know that I was testing quercetin a long time ago. but I do not know if I spent a little time taking it or what. but I did not notice much. For now, what I do notice that helps me say to 40 or 50% is a powerful inhibitor of Cox 2, called etoricoxib. Which indicates to me in some way that some inflammation I have to have, even though it is mysteriously not detected. As many times we have commented in this forum.

Fernab how are you now? I want to aks my specialist to give me Nalcrom (Sodium cromoglycate) too. Because of hives. I also hope that it will help me a bit against POIS and bad sleep (high histamine means bad sleep). I also try to eat less food with high histamine.

Ok, so there is a way I'm knowing my anti-MCAS pack is working, this is something I also discovered with Ketotifen. Apparently, all these years of histamine release in my brain gave me a form of histamine tolerance. After I take the pack I start feeling sleepy. Like today I only took Quercetine and Luteoline without the anti-histamines and that made me sleepy as fuck. I've also noticed that with Ketotifen. Now I know that Ketotifen is known for inducing sleepiness, but in my case it cripples me. I've known people from MCAS FB group who say that Ketotifen barely does anything to them. So perhaps this is a good thing? I'm reducing all that histamine that is stuck in my brain? IDK.

If ours teories is wright, that should be happennig,
try adyusting dosage an then incriese,
an test how you feeling , take your time to test.

Hi Vandemolen,

I continue taking Disodium cromoglycate. Today or tomorrow will be for two weeks.
for now I'm not noticing a big difference. but mast cell disorders, as with POIS, are not treated equally for all patients. I will continue taking it in spite of it. I will see an Mast Cells disorder specialist on january 8th. I will decide then if it's worth continuing to take it or not and wait for another indication from the specialist.

It is true that a diet low un histamine it's also a type of treatment for some MCAS patients. Un some cases it works. I also have difficulties to sleep correctly. I suppose It would take some time until you notice any progress/good result. Let us know if you get any good result if you do a low histamine diet. Good luck with it!

Will keep you upated.

Hi Nas, good to know you found something that makes you feel better. I know ketotifen as a drug for allergy in eyes (itchy eyes, when pollen allergy, for instance).

If you are taking it on your own, please, take care also of side effects. Just in case.

But It is good to know...

I read that it takes time before disodium cromoglycate works. But it should work after 3 weeks. I mean work as in coping with the histamine problem. I do not know it helps with POIS. Good luck.

So apparently doctors perscribe 500mg Quercetin 3 times a day after food, Because of how Querecitin is very badly absorved in the body, nevertheless trying to bypass the BBB. So definitely will need to increase Quercetin intake.

[fernab]

Hi Nas,

If you are right, maybe the reason why I did not felt any relief when I took quercitine, is because I took a very low dose.... I don't have any idea about which are the good dosage. Or if maybe it depends a bit on each person..... No idea.... Maybe you are right, I don't know. Next 8th (very soon) will see a specialist... Will let you know....

Good luck!!!...

[Nas]

Good luck!!!...

You too!!

Dose enybody of you who hawe MG symptomes tested acetylcholine receptor antibodies,
MuSK antibodies?

[Hopeoneday]

Intresting thing related to MCAS conection is that i hawe non alergic cronic sinusuitis (all my life , since childhood).
Recently i dicover that some food and beavarages open my stifed nouse for several hours, no medicine cold do
that, only nasal sprays with nasty side effects.
I didnt know for years what is that in cofee that help me to feel beter and open my nouse,
because i been cofeine intolerant because of pois(in times when i didnt know whot was wrong with me,
when sewere pois atacand  nerwe on the edge, put cofein in that you hawe panic atacs party).

Now i discovered that is cafeic acid tipe of polyphenol!!!
So meny benefits.

[Vandemolen]

I updated my blood test results. I added a few. My IgM is too low. But my IgA, IgE and IgG are ok. My POIS doctor told me that if IgM is too low than IgG will not function well, even that the blood result is good. A low IgM means that I am sensitive for infections. My POIS doctor thinks that the low IgM is the reason why I have a lot of UTI’s and prostate infection. There is no cure for low IgM. There are 4 options: infusion, injections, prophylactic antibiotics and Immunoglobulin Replacement Therapy. I am not a fan of antibiotics. My doctor sended me to a big hospital where there is a specialisation of immulogy. My POIS doctor does not think that when my IgM problem is under control that that will help my POIS.

Is there someone elsed who tested IgM? Would be interesting to test in and out POIS. Will IgM go up while in POIS?

Would be interesting if another POIS-patient checks his IgM. A shortage of IgM is not common. So if anothef POIS-patient also has a shortage of IgM then maybe we are on something. Then it would be interesting if more POIS-patients check IgM.

It's unlikely it plays a role in POIS, results are all normal:

Ok thanks. If 3 other POIS-patients have normal IgM than I think it is not related to POIS. I thought maybe it was caused by desens, but if your IgM is ok then not. People with a shortage of IgM do get often more auto immune diseases. So maybe in my personal case it could play a role why I have POIS. Or it is a secundairy problem beside POIS. Not all POIS-patients have a lot of bladder/prostate infections and UTI like me.

Asociated condition, almost all we mention on forum.

What abou anti ige treatmant, she sed that some peoples helped medicine like
xolair https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omalizumab

Yeah Fernab, in mcas it is all about histamine.
I think that reaction on arosaul is exses in us, because of hudge
rection of histamine in brain, then body.

It is exces, or lack histamine in brain, then on arosaul or O, hited hardly
cascade of symptomes, i dotnt know is it posible to mesure histamine lewels
in brain.

I asked my doctor if he can give me Xolair. Not for POIS, but for urticaria. But you never know, maybe it helps against POIS too. Xolair is by injections. So maybe he will try other medicines first.
