Understanding Mast Cell Disorders 👍🤗

Dr. Theoharides sheds light on the diagnosis of systemic mastocytosis. If you have the mast cell mutation and meet minor criteria like elevated tryptase levels or cutaneous mastocytosis, it's likely systemic mastocytosis.

It can be classified as:
✔️Indolent Systemic Mastocytosis (mild symptoms)
✔️Aggressive Systemic Mastocytosis (severe symptoms)

Each classification requires tailored approaches for symptom management.

I have it, but I also have a pituitary adenoma that shoots out adrenaline all day. So instead of itching I have more of a all over burning pain. When I was little I had server anaphylaxis and severe allergies and severe asthma, I was allergic to allergy shots and the syringes. They had to special make my allergy shots in NY, I grew up in Alabama, they also had to use a gold syringe. They shipped it to my Dr. I’d get double lung pneumonia, very high fevers they had to ice me down. Then at four I fell outta moving vehicle, started having severe migraines with the reactions. Cold and exercising induced asthma. I had severe reactions when I hit puberty, that I’d feel I was going insane once a month for six hours. My body finally calmed down. Got Lyme in 07!& again in 09 took 14+ years to get rid of it, maybe, got Covid three times, allergic to vaccines so no vaxx, and MCAS kept getting worse. We didn’t know what it was, because it was way different what I had as a two month premi. When I was little, my bladder always hurt. I was allergic to all but meat, sugar and maybe 5-6 foods. Fast forward to CoVid, foods made my organs burn, my nerves, my brain screams, encephalopathy, nuropathy/fibromyalgia, we’re not sure. But within 15 min of eating I’m in hell. Then when my bladder feels the second reaction becomes torture. Every time I eat. When the severe kicked in, it was as severe as labor pains, only feel on fire, scalded all over!! I live in hell … I had three children one almost killed me, but second labor was natural, my pain was worse than second but not as bad when my pelvis was almost broken in labor. So pain as bad as normal labor, but burning! No one can help me and I have no health insurance. Left because of Lyme, 25 year marriage, he said nope, then my fiancé said nope that I got CoVid& mcas… I’m gonna die one of the worst slow torture deaths … bioweapons and people playing God, took the first 12 & last 17 years of my life, 29 years of my 55 have been insane torture!!! And people think you lie, because you don’t scream ! Or weep, oh I do… in my pillow, but I tend to check out mentally …. People are cruel
