CIRS Quiz - Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome Assessment | Provo Health

You're Not Crazy. You're Likely Inflamed.
And it's Thanks to CIRS

You've tried the elimination diets, the gut-healing protocols, the expensive supplements—and nothing's worked.

Or worse… it made you feel even more exhausted, anxious, puffy, wired-yet-tired, or just off.

You've probably heard:

"Your labs are normal."
"Maybe it's just stress."
"Let's try another medication."

…but your body is still screaming for help.

There's a name for this.

It's called CIRS—Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome.

CIRS is a whole-body inflammatory condition triggered by biotoxins like mold, Lyme, or post-infection illness (including COVID).

It shuts down your mitochondria's ability to produce energy, hijacks your immune system's intelligence, and creates neuroinflammation—often called "leaky brain"—alongside leaky gut issues. This gut barrier breakdown can lead to autoimmunity and malabsorption, so no matter how many supplements you take, your body can't actually use them.

CIRS can also trigger MCAS (mast cell activation syndrome) and histamine intolerance, leaving you chasing food eliminations—when the real culprit isn't the food at all, it's CIRS.

And most doctors miss it.

Please provide your information to receive your CIRS assessment results

CIRS Symptom Assessment

Instructions:

  • For each line, mark "Yes" if you've experienced even one of the listed symptoms within the last 2-4 weeks.
  • If none of the symptoms apply, mark "No."
  • Be honest—don't explain symptoms away (e.g., "I'm just tired because I didn't sleep well"). If it's happening, it counts.
