advice needed for my basement- long post

[Guest guest]

My basement was flooded due to a water heater leak in August while I was on

vacation. It was loaded with mold when I was back in about 10 days.

The insurance company got a company to come in to remove the carpet and lower

portaion of the panel, removed most of the moldy items, " Cleaned " the items like

TV, and the books that my husband insisted in keeping. Wrapped the items

together in a plastic wrap. However, the insurance inpector was first told me

they would rip off everything in the basement to make it " unfinished " state, but

they did not do it.

I asked a mold inspector to come in, he did three air samples, one in basement,

one in family room, and another in the backyard. The basement has zero mold

detection, outdoor has 9, and the family room has 300. My family room do have

stain marks on the ceiling for a long time ( could be from a bathroom leak or

outdoor gutter leak?).

Now, I really like the whole basement " unfinished " , I do not plan to finish it

either. Am I asking too much?

Should I also check out the rest of the house and make sure there is no mold

hidden?

Will Humidex work better than a whole house dehumidifer in terms of keep the

house clear of toxins and radon?

Should I be checked out for mold toxins? I has had a left ear infection and some

joint pain during this period.

Thanks for your advice, sorry for my long post.

Hope
