Guest guest Posted April 16, 2003 Report Share Posted April 16, 2003 I agree with everything you say. There is no way to avoid running into mold, but I find that if I can sleep free of the molds that are powerful enough to give me an inflammatory response, I build up a tolerance that allows me to withstand limited exposure to places that used to knock me flat. I maneuver through spore plumes daily and if I make sure that I decontaminate and never carry enough spores home to allow my bedding to become contaminated with the more toxic molds that I encounter, I can still survive in areas that are far less than perfect. When I was at my most reactive, I got sick from just driving into the treeline south of the Grand Canyon. And I was amazed that on the return trip my symptoms abated as soon as I left the forest and got back into the desert. By persistently avoiding really bad places and making sure I decontaminate whenever I " perceive " mold, I can now work full time in a building that I didn't dare enter several years ago. I'm not happy about working in a place where there is any mold at all, but hey, someone has to pay the bills. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
