your diagnosis

Since EHS or ES is not diagnosed by doctors in the U.S., I am curious how you determined you had ES? Did you have other diagnoses before recognizing it was ES? Did a doctor indicate you might have it without giving a diagnosis? Did you learn about on the Internet?  

I have mild symptoms and learned about it by surfing the Internet.

Yes, since ES doesn't officially exist in most countries, it is impossible
to get an official "diagnosis".

However, one can figure out on their own that they are reacting badly
to something. It took me at least 7 months to figure out that I
was reacting badly to computers, telephones, florescent lights,
TVs, etc., and to conclude that it was EMF that was the problem.
I actually concluded this by testing my reaction to power lines
and cell phone transmitters, which would not have a chemical
offgassing component. Then it took another 6 months (I think)
before I learned that this condition had a name. Although in
terms of an official diagnoses, the closest my doctor could come
up with was "chronic fatigue syndrome" (which was accurate,
however it was the EMF that was causing a lot of my fatigue)

Hi, Christine,
 
I suspected es and I called down to Dr. Rae's clinic in Dallas, Tx.  Theytold me over the phone that I did, indeed, fit the profile for es.  And told me that if I could later come to the clinic, Dr. Rae would test me for reactions to specific frequencies, if I wanted that.  It was suggestedthat detox of environmental toxins was the best approach, tho that didn't always work and became a less effective cure after 2 years es.  Dr. Rae would not treat me until I found a new home (a home with no pesticides in it--which is what precipitated my es).  I was unable to find a new home in that amount of time, so I was never treated.  (I had funding from a charitable institution to help pay for the treatment when I went, as it is quiteexpensive and takes about 2 months there at the facility in Texas.  Tho for me personally, they were going to shorten the program to a month, provided I could carry out the remaining treatments on my own and then make a
return trip to access how effective it was.)

You can get a dx from some doctors--I got the dx from Dr. Rae by phone and from the homeopath I saw in person in January.  But, you are probably correct--these are not likely held as "valid" dxes by mainstream medicine.  I found the same thing with celiac d, tho.  Cd was known to cause neurologic problems in Europe since about 1995.  Those research studies were not accepted in the US until 2005, when they were replicated here!  Silly--as tho the US is the authority on medicine!  What I am saying is, if you have a dx, some doctors are likely to honor it, because they know what the medical institution is like.
