    What Is the Best Test for Mold Illness?

    By · Updated

    The short answer

    There is no single best test. Mold illness is confirmed by combining your symptom pattern, testing the building you live in (such as ERMI or HERTSMI-2), and testing your body (such as a urine mycotoxin panel), interpreted by a clinician.

    Test the building first

    No protocol beats ongoing exposure. If the home is still making you sick, treatment stalls.

    Then test the body

    Urine mycotoxin panels show what your body is carrying. They are most useful when read alongside your symptoms and exposure history, not alone.

    Clinical testing is part of DNA Precision and Private Concierge. The $47 Snapshot is a written read and does not include testing.

    Should I start a binder before testing?

    Talk to your clinician first. Binders and drainage need to be sequenced, and changing medication should always go through your prescriber.
