Guest guest Posted September 29, 2004 Report Share Posted September 29, 2004 Air containing mold seems " thick " to me - " dense " - it is not light and breezy but " stale " and " heavy " , " musty " " dusty " and " old " smelling. I can feel it on my skin, too. This is not every room that has mold, but particularly in older buildings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 30, 2004 Report Share Posted September 30, 2004 I dont know if I can limit feelings to a word or two, but i can grab the feelings in descriptive sentences: Post nasal drip: like rubber cement stuck in the back of your throat that wont move regardless of coughing or drinking Mold hit: Being sprayed by mace perhaps? Pepper sray. Hot air that enters your chest like swalling garlics or hot peppers one after another. Tight skin like a sunburn across my forhead, dry eyes that cake up overnight, hot sweats after a mold hit day, wake up soaked across my chest. Pain in my right ear, very deep after a mold hit, aching and aches in shoulder where a very hard backrub in the right place MIGHT releave the ache. Soreness like raw meat in a place just about 3 inches from my color bone int he soft space between my ribs. Coughing: Dry, irritating attempts at moving what seems lodged in the back of your throat or high in your ribs- endlessly unsuccessful in these attempts. Extremeties: numbing, tingling, you feel like pounding your leg on the groud to " wake it up " and get circulation back, cold unresponsive, Disorientation: like you just stepped off an elevator and are attempting to restabalize...like youve had a wine, but you havn't Faiting, loosing any power in your knees to maintain an upright position, intence desire for cold water and fresh air immediately, Headache that doesnt subside, accompanied by the disorientation makes a general foggy mind that has difficulty concentrating... wait, what am i writing about....lol -----Original Message----- From: Gingersnap1964@...
