Houston Woman heals herself and home from mold toxicity

For over two decades, Julie Meisner struggled with health challenges that no doctor could fully explain. What began with pregnancy-induced preeclampsia in 2000 spiraled into hypothyroidism, painful gut issues that led to colon surgery, and years of debilitating fatigue. No diet, supplement, or hormone therapy seemed to bring lasting relief.

By 2022, Julie’s health had reached a breaking point. She was exhausted after the simplest tasks, forced to cut grains and dairy from her diet, and living a life far removed from what she once knew. Blood work and scans suggested she was “mostly healthy,” yet she felt worse than ever.

The missing piece? Mold.

Julie later discovered she was living with Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRS)—a condition triggered by long-term exposure to toxic mold. Looking back, she realized mold had been a hidden thread in nearly every place she’d lived, silently fueling her decline.

Her journey wasn’t easy. Julie tried nearly every healing path imaginable: functional medicine, applied kinesiology, elimination diets, supplements, and countless protocols. But nothing reached the root cause—until she found Dr. Andrew Heyman, who specializes in treating CIRS, and an indoor environmental professional who guided her through remediation and home health protocols.

This partnership finally gave Julie the answers and tools she needed. With a structured treatment plan and changes to her home environment, she began to see profound improvements.

For Julie, the journey was both eye-opening and frightening. Mold illness pushed her body to the brink, and doctors often dismissed her concerns. But by uncovering the true cause and working with the right practitioners, she is now reclaiming her health—and her life.
