I know I am having huge reactions to mold. I was fine until the weather changed here in N.C. and we got tons of rain. Everyday the weather channel says Mold levels are extremely high.
Here are my symptoms to mold exposure that gets worse when near air vents and such that circulates it or on very rainy days. Or when I leave the house especially in the car.
Dizzy heart racing, fainting feeling weakness trembly feeling Shortness of breath POTS like symptoms
How can I cope? It's not like an allergy in the sense as it seems toxic to me. Is this a problem detoxing mycotoxins? What tests or treatments are available. I also react to coffee and recently read that mycotoxins are present in most coffee. Thanks for any advice or experiences.

Thank you all. I'm having a hard time this year, last year not so bad. But feeling very weak and heavy limbed today for some odd reason.

If you have a mold allergy, your immune system overreacts when you breathe in mold spores. This triggers a cascade of reactions that lead to allergic symptoms.
A metabolite of Claritin (histamine 1 blocker)blocks Mn from going into the cell. Bb is dependent on Mn-SOD (a mitochondrial antioxidant) to prevent ROS (reactive oxygen species) from damaging its lipoproteins.
Tritec = rantinidine bismuth citrate rids ALL forms of Bb from the GI track (ONLY). Rantinidine = Zantac...a H2 blocker.
