Mycotoxins and cross contamination

[Guest guest]

Posings on this board have been invaluable to me in understanding

what is happening to me. Thank you to all who have posted. I now

understand why I could have had mold in the garage ceiling, and be

very ill even though the presence of no spores was found through

testing in the house, because it was the mycotoxins coming through

that I was reacting to. I now understand why I continue to be ill

because of the presence of mold in ceilings and walls in the house

even though once again no mold spores register on a air test.

However, I need some help in understanding the concept of cross

contamination, especially so I can try to explain it to others. Is

it spores or mycotoxins or both which are the culprits in cross

contamination? If it is mycotoxins, how does this work? Are

mycotoxins a gas or a solid? If it is a solid I can understand cross

contamination, but if it is a gas, I have trouble understanding how

it cross contaminates. I am very much suffering because of mycotoxins

and cross contamination, yet I find it so difficult to explain the

concepts to my family members who are not suffering. Does anyone

know of any printed material out there that would explain the issue

of cross contamination and/or the migration of mycotoxins through

walls?

Thank you...Jeri
