Guest guest Posted July 7, 2007 Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 I recently moved out of my truck camper in NC and to Tallahassee. Niether the camper or NC was working for me and got a lot of my health back since the move. I would say 50% conservatively maybe as much as 80% in some area's. It's so difficult to gauge though. Especially when I've only been here a week and out of nc for a month. And been exposed at varying degrees reaching both ends of the spectrum for ten years now. I have never known " clear " this whole time. Or weather their is even such a thing for victims of pesticide poisoning. I have stayed in my brothers ten year old house as well as my dad's 12 year old house for brief stint's of a few days to a week one time. And always felt better (with one exception) but for some dumb reason didn't put two and two together. (retarded disconnect, it can happen to anyone) My dad recently let me stay in his house for 3 weeks and it began to resonate. Clearly this isn't fail safe but it's worked for me three times now, my brothers house, my dad's house and now in Tallahassee where I am renting out a room in a 2 year old house. I brought things with me that don't have actual mold growth on them, computer, monitor, car, cloths, office material, etc. Don't seem to be reacting to them, maybe on some imperceptible level. It's hard to say I don't think I am though. Do react a little in some stores I go to but nothing debilitating. Probably because my endurance level is increasing. I recomend to anyone that is still in a highly reactive state to try what I did. Sometimes I want to put a gun to my head for being so stupid and not seeing what was sooooooo obvious and sitting right under my nose all of these years. Old houses have years of accumulated mold growth in places that can't easily be inspected and are difficult to test for. Not that new houses don't have mold too, just that your odds are a lot better that they have much much less. Try to stay away from framed houses, go for block. (I am in a framed house) Try to find one 10 years old or less. It might be possible for me to get my health back to the point where I could actually get some type of job that is light on problem solving or physical demands and doesn't expose me. But than again maybe I will start reacting to this house. I didn't react much to the house in NC right away, took a few weeks and got cumulatively worse and worse till I was crippled with fatigue. The only thing that saved me was being able to sleep in the cab of my truck till I got my senses back enough to build a camper on the back of it which failed becuase their is just too much mold in the air in western nc. Possible it would of worked in arizona though. Time will tell as far as this new house goes but I am very optimistic. Their are thousands of people all over the country with brand new homes that are having difficulty swinging the mortgage and looking for roommates to lift some of their burden. Rent's I've seen range from 500 to 700 a month utilities included. Go to " craigslist.com " look for apt.s and housing in particular " rooms for rent " set the browser to " show adds with pictures only " try not to mention mold, it a sure fire way to scare away a potential land lord. (only one responded when I had this in my profile) I still haven't come clean with my land lord. The service is free and very popular. Lot's of add's with profiles that fit the above criteria in any major city. Look for or try to convince your land lord to let you rent month to month that way if you need to bail you won't loose $1500. Just 7 or 800.
