Our Mystery Illness Program Addresses

Genetics

Some of your illnesses may have not even started with you! Genetics influence the expression of genes in your body and that affects how you respond to your environment, food, stress and more. We test genetic markers that are key for things like methylation to determine how best to support your body’s natural detox pathways and what nutritional supplementation to add to your recovery program

Trauma

 Toxic life experiences can have a lasting impact on your overall health and impair your immune system function. These experiences can be ongoing from work or family life, so learning how to best support your body through them is key to minimizing the symptoms of long-term stress. 

Exposure to Toxins

Mold, heavy metals, bacteria, and toxins are all around you. In your home and workplace, in the food you eat and water you drink, and even in the products you use daily. Evaluating what you are constantly exposed to offers insight into harmful toxins affecting your health. 

Gut Health

Even when you think you’re eating healthily, you may be doing more harm than good. Nutritional deficiencies, food sensitivity and an imbalanced gut can wreak havoc on your body leaving you boated, fatigued or with irritable bowels. 

Chronic Infections

Lyme disease, Epstein-Barr virus and related infections can be life-long. You may have been diagnosed with a chronic infection or find yourself constantly coming down with every virus or bug going around or have an overactive immune system responding with allergy-like symptoms

Forum Health's Approach

Our industry-leading healthcare providers serve patients with a root cause approach to care and have decades of functional and integrative medicine experience drawn from areas in anti-aging, environmental medicine, chronic disease, lifestyle medicine, and much more.

Thank you so much Dr. Taylor...my energy levels have improved significantly, I'm able to work again. I feel so blessed.

Forum Health Utah
I highly recommend Dr. Seibold as a functional medicine doctor and all around great provider. I found out about Forum Health and Dr. Peterson originally, through hearing numerous positive things within the Lyme and tic-born illness community. It is very difficult to get appropriate diagnoses and treatment of late stage Lyme, mold toxicity, tic-born illness, and common co-occuringI infections and disorders.Dr. Seibold, Dr. Peterson's colleague, had openings so I met with him. I am 55 and have had a lifetime of various physical illnesses that run the gammut from acne to chronic sinusitis to ruptured discs. He is one of the best doctors I have ever been to (CA and UT). He is kind, calm, respectful, and professional but approachable. He is fully present in the room when he is with you and makes sure that you have everything you need in hand when you leave (as you know this is unfortunately rare). He listens carefully and explains complex medical concepts in a way that respects your intelligence but also makes them easy to digest. I am facing 5-6 debilitating diagnoses that are complicated to treat and include mental health components. Both he and all of the staff have shown me an amazing amount of patience and compassion. I dont have enough good things to say about him and the staff from the front desk, medical assistants to the phlebotomist.

Very glad I found form health in Asheville. I became very sick mentally and physically my general practitioner and other doctors could not find the root cause and the attempt to fix the symptoms did not work. Long story short personally did some research found out about igenex testing tested positive for the babesia parasite. Got with Dr Bell in Asheville and things started making sense next thing you know a few months later I'm starting to feel better A lot better. Chronic lyme disease is a real thing and the standard test is less than 50% accurate. Reach out to a functional medical doctor and look things up do research on your own find the root cause of what's going on with you. I'm completely confident there's hope to be 100% better.

I highly recommend Dr. Taylor and his staff for assisting with your health issues. For me this was Lyme Disease. Every time I have met him, he has taken time to listen to my symptoms and give advise on practical ways to function well. He takes the treatment of illness in the body seriously. He didn’t throw my concerns out the window. I saw Dr. Taylor and had IV treatments over the course of 2 months. When I came into his office I had chronic fatigue and gut issues which had made me lose 40 lbs. Now I am done with my fatigue - as long as I am eating right - AND I have put on a healthy amount of weight. I am continuing at home treatment under his guidance and expect to continue to see great results. Thank you Dr. Taylor and staff!

Forum Health Fond du Lac
I have been seeing Dr. Meress and Dr. Borden for two years now and I would say they have been pivotal for the significant improvement in my health. Before I came across Forum Health clinic I have to see 13 different doctors within a year and I got little to no help from them. Except for one doctor, Dr. Lyday another integrative doctor who’s the one who diagnosed me with Lyme first and recommended me to Forum Health formerly Fox Valley. I was at my lowest point, severely sick, could not function and didn’t even understand what I was dealing with, I at one point thought I was dying until I became a patient of Dr. Meress and Dr. Borden and I also should mention I also saw Dr. Abfall who was also a great help when I was seeing her. Even I am not at 100% now, which is not surprising for chronic Lyme patients but I owe it to the doctors and staff of forum health for my better quality of life, I couldn’t be more thankful to them, I truly wish this clinic continues to help patients like me suffering from a chronic illness that is not well understood by traditional doctors. Kudos to this team and more power.

Dr. Taylor is a very kind and knowledgeable doctor. I started feeling very sick in highschool, and none of my doctors could figure out exactly what was happening to me. Dr. Taylor was able to come to the accurate diagnosis quickly and helped me get back on track with my health. I have been working with him for the past 4 years. My health has never felt better! I am so grateful for Dr. Taylor and his team. I would give them 10 stars if I could. I recommend them to all of my family and friends.

Pam Thomas was very helpful with practical tips for working with my several chronic health issues. The new patient portal makes it easy to review notes from the appointment also. The Forum Health staff are friendly and accommodating as always. I've been coming here (Waller Wellness/Forum Health) for well over 10 years. They've helped me over some rough patches and my knowledge and treatment for my conditions continues to astound my primary care and specialty surgeons. I couldn't have done this without support and treatment from this office.

After I had my daughter, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s. I felt awful at the time. I was exhausted, bloated, had trouble concentrating, had heart palpitations, dizzy spells, and generally felt like I was carrying a backpack of bricks with me all day, every day. When I came to Dr. Taylor’s office he implemented a thorough and detailed plan for me, including a full spectrum of testing that uncovered some underlying causes for my condition. After working with him and his incredible team, I felt like I had been given my life back! I cannot say enough about the wonderful work they are doing at Texas Integrative Medicine. Thank you Dr. Taylor!

When I started seeing Dr. Taylor I was very sick. He is extremely knowledgeable and knew the right protocol for me to follow. I did as he recommended and in less than two years my health is great. I thank God for Dr. Taylor. I highly recommend Dr. Taylor if you are sick and looking for a natural way to heal.

Dr. Taylor has a very broad and deep understanding of environmental medicine. He stays up to date on all the latest research. He is not afraid to look outside of the conservative Western medical paradigm for answers. In my opinion he blends the best part of both traditional medicine and functional medicine. He has really been helping me navigate my complex medical issues, targeting inflammation and its many symptoms. His office staff is knowledgeable and very caring. If you are looking for the root cause of your health challenges I heartily recommend Texas integrative Medicine.

FAQ

Chronic fatigue and inflammation are influenced by environmental factors. It's important to note that these factors can interact in different ways for different individuals, key environmental factors that are commonly associated with contributing to chronic fatigue and inflammation include: stress, poor diet, sedentary lifestyle, exposure to toxins in the air, heavy metals, pesticides, and chemicals; poor sleep, infections, chronic inflammation, mental health issues, chronic pain, and hormone imbalances.  

The brain's threat response, triggered by accumulated toxins and toxic experiences, leads to mitochondrial shutdown, causing fatigue. It also increases immune sensitivity, potentially leading to inflammation, allergies, and autoimmune responses. 

Yes, brain retraining programs based on neuroplasticity can be beneficial. Various programs like DNRS, safe and sound protocol, tapping, meditation, yoga, and even psychedelic medicine can promote neuroplasticity, potentially reducing threat responses and enhancing overall well-being. 

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) can be reactivated, but its presence doesn't necessarily lead to symptoms. Many people have EBV without symptoms. Reactivation could occur due to various triggers, and symptoms might include fatigue, sore throat, fever, and muscle aches. 

Standard Lyme tests may produce false negatives. If you suspect Lyme disease and your test was negative, consider seeking a healthcare provider experienced in Lyme disease. More comprehensive testing, like indirect antibody testing and PCR, may provide accurate results. 

If you've exhausted various approaches and still face chronic illness, it's important to consider potential overlooked factors. Working with a knowledgeable healthcare professional to explore less conventional triggers like electromagnetic radiation, toxins, and personal sensitivities could offer insights and solutions. 

 

Detoxing from mold involves various steps. Focus on avoidance of exposure first. Intestinal binders, like activated charcoal or calcium D-glucarate, aid in toxin elimination. Enhancing glutathione levels, maintaining hydration, quality sleep, stress reduction, and using saunas can all contribute to effective detox. 

While professional mold inspections are often recommended for accurate assessment, you can consider at-home options like ERMI testing kits or DIY mold plates. However, consulting professionals with expertise in environmental medicine is crucial for effective mold assessment and remediation. 

Without a gallbladder, bile release is continuous, impacting detoxification. Intestinal binders like pectin, zeolite, or modified citrus pectin can still be effective for mold detox. Working with a healthcare provider to determine appropriate binders and dosages is recommended.
