What made you think about mold being the cause of your symptoms?
Also do you know you were being exposed to mold?
Was anyone else around you like people you lived with or worked with affected as well?
I'm asking because it has crossed my mind that something in my house is making me sick simply because my symptoms started after I moved here. However my husband and my son are just fine so I just keep pushing that thought out of my head.
Please share if you don't mind...

Yes I was exposed to Mold.
Yes, I knew I was exposed.
Yes, other people around got sick with similar symptoms. Also, my Vitamin B12 level plummeted, my TSH, thyroid number went up, which meant my thyroid was low, not working. Persistent cough for months, hair loss and short term memory loss and chronic fatigue. I kept telling the physicians i was exposed to mold, but the physicians are not taught about mold. I even had one tell me he was not knowledgable about mold. Doug Kauffman, Know the Cause is on T.V. during the weekday at 10:30am. He also has a website, Know the Cause. Look up mycotoxins, Trichothecenes, Ochratoxins, these are mycotoxins. I have a minor in biology. I took Microbiology and remembered what our instructor taught us about fungi. Thats what made me think I had fungi and mycotoxins inside me. Mold Treatment Center of America has a web site also. EHAP Labs is also on the web. You do not need a doctor order to order a mycotoxin urinalysis. I would get your house checked out by a Mold Inspector. A professional that does Mold Inspections only. Not one that does mold inspection and mold remediation. I got my home inspected by a mold inspector, he did 3 air samples and ELISA testing for allergens. No Mold in my home. I was exposed at work. Please do not wait for inspection. This is a slow insidious illness. I was exposed for several years. Your in my prayers Lady! Heart:
