Hey,

You all are right with your evaluation of the OSHA booklet. Check out what

they used for source references.

They used ACOEM, VeriTox, and Ron Gots! This is one we have already told

about. It was written by an outsourced contractor.

Absolutly. Every point you make is incredibly valid. I like you had NO illness

prior to my exposure. Now the hospitol is telling me I am way to young to have

all these problems. Well no s*$%t sherlock. That is my confusion that seems to

continue to grow (just like the mold in my old house) On one hand i read " oh ya,

that can make you sick. Here are some rediculiously expensive medications to

take for it " On the other hand " Oh no that is not why you are sick. It is

because of some other problem you have. But instead here is some rediculesly

expensive medications you can take for that "

I mean if the toxins don't make me crazy, trying to figure all this out

will...

This publication states to report mold problems to administrator...Did

that...then report the problem to OSHA...did that one. My OSHA

inspector promised testing, investigation for years only to say at the

end that the visible mold was NOT tested because he couldn't get

access from the school to the locked up moldy skylights. He stated he

couldn't test the falling ceiling tiles, couldn't disturb property,

didn't have a moisture meter, etc. Bottomline...he told me, " I'm

sorry, but it's all political. " That should be published here as well!

The maintenance reports subpoenaed by the court told a different

story. Can't OSHA be held liable for the lack of protecting the

worker? That IS their job right?

I'm really getting tired of publications like this saying that

mold/mycotoxins can be a problem for people with underlying illness

like AIDS, recent surgery, etc. I didn't have immunosuppression prior

to my exposures. Anyone else? Doesn't mycotoxin exposure CAUSE

immunosuppression? I was not disabled prior to going out on WC.

Another thing this publication states is that mycotoxins don't usually

present problems in the concentrations seen in residential and

commercial buildings. WHAT??? I thought we don't have a standard in

the U.S. for HOW MUCH mold/mycotoxin exposure is harmful. The level of

mycotoxins in my building did cause my disability. The concentration

DID present disabling factors for me. How about for others???

Maybe we should edit their next publication for them.
