Can someone help with mold allergy questions?

If I tested really high Ige on Aspergillus fumigatus mold what does this mean?

Does this mean I have this type of mold in my house or recent exposure to it, or does it just mean I react to this?

Isn't this 'the' toxic mold that gets into the lungs?

How can I find out what kinds of mold are in the home, if any?

Try www.moldlabintl.com as a start for getting plates that you can test.

I would say it likely means you live or work in a place where you are exposed to mold on an ongoing basis though not sure that can be definitively identified from the antibody testing.
