Dawn, you could very well have hidden mold in your place somewhere.

When the mold spores are dry, they can come up through the heating

system. Another question to ask is whether you have new carpeting in

the house. The formaldehyde from that can affect you similarly.

Two months of high summer humidity will grow your apartment full of

dust mites and mold which can cause the problems you describe. Keep

the relative humidity below 50% eliminates the potential problem.

Typical summer conditions of +60% RH on the lower levels of a

building grow dust mites for sure and potentially mold. Crawlspaces,

closets, and carpeting on concrete are the obvious mold sites.
