i just realized that my i have a mold problem. I was living in my apartment for months. I had my typical lyme problems, i was sleeping a lot of the time and spent most of the time in the kitchen.
The problem: the room next to kitchen was totally full of mold after some water damage. I didn't know that. I was exposed to mold for about 5-6 months. I inhaled a lot of toxins... I got sicker and sicker.
I've done analysis of the rooms. They found many spores.
I had such incredible fatige, i've never had it that bad. I was tired all day, everytime. I thought it was a co-infection, but i think it's clearly mold. My GI is also very bad now. I feel like there's an imbalance again. When i'm back from the toilet i have pain in my GI
I was at a LLMD two days ago and i forgot to mention the topic. I spent the night after that in a hotel where i assume, was some mold and that ultra fatigue is back. I could sleep all day.
What can i do to remove the mold toxins?

Energyman and or N2. HOw did you get the apartment tested etc? I am looking into this but have not found a definitive way to test my home that I feel comfortable with. Did you have an inspector do their visual inspection and or and also do actual lab type tests? OR?
Would love to know THanks Much

Dear Energyman and n2themystic, I have the same trouble. My parents refuse to deal with the situation. Even when Dad had a job, he refused to accept toxic mold as a possibility. I have lived in this house my entire life, and always had asthma and bronchitis a minimum of once per year. GI issues as well as hormonal imbalances continue to make life a living Hell.
ProLab has a kit that is relatively inexpensive, but the analysis is $30 per sample. FirstAlert makes a kit available at Walmart.com that is $12.50 and can be shipped to your local store for free. Although the other kit is only about $10, FirstAlert appears to be more affordable and a better deal for the money. It has received good reviews.
"I am really scared. What am I going to do?" That is what we all wonder. Potent biotoxic chemicals should be mandatory to eradicate by the government, yet are not. This is quite perplexing and irritating. Being ill and unable to work, there is no possible way to escape. Moving anywhere and having testing done requires money none of us have. Something should be done about that.

If you are renting - just get out - do not take anything.

A fellow member told me about Thieves Oil for mold issues. A google search will bring up tons of info.
