Your phones are down. I would very much like to help a family obtain a death certificate but I cannot because I need to change the location of the doctor's office who is going to sign the death certificate. I can't do that by myself because apparently I am not an adult, so I have to call to have someone else do it. The problem is that your phones are down. So I tried to email. The problem with that is your email address is a state secret, so I have no way to get in contact with you. It would be great if your email address was posted instead of users having to subscribe to services in order to get in contact with you. I would almost think that the State of Arizona has a contract with those providers to exclusively list them as the only means of email contact. I really hope this is not the case. I apologize for the tone of this message, it's just very frustrating to have families calling me, very upset, yet there is literally nothing I can do for them. I can't do anything until I can get in contact with a person there - and at the moment that is impossible.

So please, list your email address. It shouldn't be a secret.

Thank you.

Ordered birth certificate on the 17th of August. Was told to keep checking the mail. It was sent to you on the 24th of August. Today is the 19th of Sept. AZDHS website states for faster service we use 3rd party services. It is so inconvenient and such a headache. I get nowhere talking with anyone. Told to go to the website and click on the big red link and I would be able to request another copy for free of charge. To no surprise, the link went to vitalchek so I can order a new one for a fee. Communication is the key to make things run smoothly. As far as AZDHS and vitalchek it is lack there of. I would much rather sit in the waiting room at the office for 8 hours and still would get it sooner. Many complaints regarding shipping issues. Unfortunately don't have the luxury of extra cash to keep a tracking number on the envelope. I hope they fix this issue.

I am an almost daily user of your data base, but today I came across a mess. All entries for Pima County, 1912 Deaths, numbers 33 through 48 are incorrect names and they are from Maricopa and Mohave counties. Are there coresponding entries elsewhere that are correct for Pima County?
As an aside, when searching for any given year in Pima County (and I assume each county has similiar entries), there are about 30 inirial entries that are the same for any given year search that have incorrect dates which anyone with access to your system could correct in a reasonably short time. In general, the correct dates are on the death certificates and just need to be transcribed.
I love having this information available. Thank you!!

Hello,

My idea is for all Phoenix buildings be inspected for the cause of this urban disease outbreak in DFW. I’d like to share information I learned during my workplace’s outbreak of a disease that can cause hematological malignancies, precancerous conditions, rheumatic diseases, connective tissue diseases, autoimmune symptoms, inflammation in any organ/tissue, seizures, migraines, hallucinations, etc. and is often undiagnosed/misdiagnosed in immunocompetent victims.

My coworkers and I, all immunocompetent, got Disseminated Histoplasmosis in Dallas-Fort Worth from roosting bats, that shed the fungus in their feces. The doctors said we couldn’t possibly have it, since we all had intact immune systems. The doctors were wrong.

From my experience, I learned that almost NO doctor will suspect subacute and/or progressive disseminated histoplasmosis in immunocompetent people. Some doctors will even REFUSE to test for it, even when told someone and their coworkers have all the symptoms and spend a lot of time in a building with bats in the ceiling. Victims will be accused of hypochondriasis or malingering. Almost no one realizes bats carry the fungus. And almost NO doctor, even infectious disease “experts,” understand the DISSEMINATED form, just the pulmonary form, and the only test that will be done by many doctors before they diagnose people as NOT having it is an X-ray, even though at least 40-70% of victims will have NO sign of it on a lung X-ray. And it OFTEN gives false-negatives in lab tests (some people are correctly diagnosed only during an autopsy after obtaining negative test results) and cultures may not show growth until after 12 weeks of incubation (but some labs report results after 2 weeks).

More than 100 outbreaks have occurred in the U.S. since 1938, and those are just the ones that were figured out, since people go to different doctors. One outbreak was over 100,000 victims in Indianapolis. 80-90+% of people in some areas have been infected. It can lay dormant for up to 40 years in the lungs and/or adrenals.

This pathogen causes idiopathic diseases and conditions, including hematological malignancies, autoimmune symptoms, myelitis, myositis, vasculitis. etc. It causes hypervascularization, calcifications, sclerosis, fibrosis, necrosis, leukopenia, anemia, neutrophilia, pancytopenia, thrombocytopenia, hypoglycemia, cysts, abscesses, polyps, stenosis, and perforations, inflammation of various organs, GI problems, hepatitis, focal neurologic deficits, etc.

It at least “mimics” autoimmune diseases, cancer, mental illness, migraines, seizures, etc. It’s known to cause rheumatological conditions, inflammation, and precancerous conditions. It causes hematological malignancies, and some doctors claim their leukemia patients go into remission when given antifungal. My friend in another state who died from lupus lived across the street from a bat colony. An acquaintance with alopecia universalis and whose mother had degenerative brain disorder has bat houses on their property.

Apparently, even the CDC didn’t know bats CARRY it and shed it in their feces, although they knew it could grow in bird and bat feces. Researchers claim the subacute type is more common than believed. It is known to at least mimic autoimmune diseases and cancer, and known to give false-positives in PET scans. But no one diagnosed with an autoimmune disease or cancer is screened for it. In fact, at least one NIH paper states explicitly that all patients diagnosed with sarcoidosis be tested for it, but most, if not all, are not. Other doctors are claiming things like sarcoidosis IS disseminated histoplasmosis.

Just one disease of unknown cause that could be caused by Disseminated Histoplasmosis: I suspect, based on my and my coworker’s symptoms (during our “rare” infectious disease outbreak) and my research, that interstitial cystitis and its comorbid conditions can be caused by disseminated histoplasmosis, which causes inflammation throughout the body, causes “autoimmune” symptoms, and is not as rare as believed. I read that “interstitial cystitis (IC) is a chronic inflammatory condition of the submucosal and muscular layers of the bladder, and the cause is currently unknown. Some people with IC have been diagnosed with other conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, allergies, Sjogren’s syndrome, which raises the possibility that interstitial cystitis may be caused by mechanisms that cause these other conditions. In addition, men with IC are frequently diagnosed as having chronic nonbacterial prostatitis, and there is an extensive overlap of symptoms and treatment between the two conditions, leading researchers to posit that the conditions may share the same etiology and pathology.”

I believe the “side effects” of Haldol (leukopenia and MS symptoms) might not always be side effects but just more symptoms of Disseminated Histoplasmosis, since it causes leukopenia and MS symptoms. What about the unknown reason why beta receptor blockers cause tardive dyskinesia? The tinnitus, photophobia, psychosis “caused” by Cipro? The hypersexuality and leukemia “caused” by Abilify? Humira linked to lymphoma, leukemia and melanoma in children? etc.

The fungus is an Oxygenale and therefore consumes collagen. It’s known to cause connective tissue diseases. Fungal hyphae carry an electrical charge and align under a current. It causes RNA/DNA damage. It’s known to cause delusions, wild mood swings, and hallucinations. It’s most potent in female lactating bats, because the fungus likes sugar (lactose) and nitrogen (amino acids, protein). What about female lactating humans…postpartum psychosis? The bats give birth late spring/summer, and I noticed suicide rates spike in late spring/early summer. A map of mental distress and some diseases appear to almost perfectly overlay a map of Histoplasmosis. Johns Hopkins linked autism to an immune response in the womb. Alzheimer’s was linked to hypoglycemia, which can be caused by chronic CNS histoplasmosis. The bats eat moths, which are attracted to blue and white city lights.

My coworkers and I had GI problems, liver problems, weird rashes, plantar fasciitis, etc., and I had swollen lymph nodes, hives, lesions, and started getting migraines and plantar fasciitis in the building, and haven’t had them since I left. It gave me temporary fecal incontinence, seizures, dark blood from my intestines, nystagmus, benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, and chronic spontaneous “*******.” I had insomnia/parasomnias (presumably from the fungus acidifying the blood, releasing adrenaline.) I had symptoms of several autoimmune diseases, including Fibromyalgia, Sarcoidosis, ALS, MS, etc. that have disappeared since leaving the area and taking nothing but Itraconazole antifungal.

No one, including doctors, could figure out what was wrong with us, and I was being killed by my doctor, who mistakenly refused to believe I had it and gave me Prednisone (at least 2 years after I already had Disseminated Histoplasmosis) after a positive ANA titer, until I miraculously remembered that a visiting man once told my elementary school class that bats CARRY histoplasmosis….so much of it that they evolved to deal with the photophobia and tinnitus it causes by hunting at night by echolocation. There’s a lot more. I wrote a book about my experience with Disseminated Histoplasmosis called “Batsh#t Crazy,” because bats shed the fungus in their feces and it causes delusions and hallucinations, I suspect by the sclerotia it can form emitting hallucinogens, along with inflammation in the CNS. (Schizophrenics have 2X of a chemical associated with yeast, part of the fungal life cycle.)

Thank you for your time
