Guest guest Posted November 8, 2007 Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 Hi everyone, like the heading says, i am sick and in need of some support. i too live in So. Cal., . So we are neighbors. A bit about my Sick Building experience. Myself and co workers were exposed to a very large and thick area of MOLD, but not just any MOLD, this Mold had formed behind a cabinet, and was due to the Toilet overflowing many times over the years in the restroom adjacent . Fecal, urine, blood and vomit stayed on the floor for hrs at a time as we would tape an " Out of Order " sign on the door. I was unaware of this MOLD until Feb. of this year, at which time we were still mandated to work in this " infected " small workroom. I work in the health care industry and this room " was " also a Patient Exam Room, which when the discovery was made, we were told not to use it for Patients due to unsanitary and health isses. I asked about our health and was shrugged off and was told the Admin. said to still use it. I admit I was unkowledgable about MOLD. I became very sick way before Feb. but just didn't realize it. I succomed to an extreme harrasment issue, which sent me to the E.R. with BP 198/106 in May. And then I was just given some pills for anxiety and a referral to Psych. where they said i was depressed??? I admit I was extremely irritable and crying uncontrolably, but being harassed as the only female in a male dominated field at work, tell me which woman wouldn't be? I filed for elbow injuries in June 2007 for pain that had been ongoing since March of 2006 at the sugestion of the social worker i was seeing (due to my depression??)I never coorlated my pain to MOLD Exposure. my feet and ankles would hurt,i was buying new shoes constantly? no help I would lose my balance, have severe migraines, nightmares, lose the ability to spell simple words, unable to retain and so many more little things i never realized until I became totaly weak, unable to use my muscles, I had no choice but to go out on my elbow pain. I had a heightened sense of smell and small tremors all the way back to 2005 and now sit here with full on MCS that has yet to be diagnosed. My skin stings constanly and my hands, feet, legs and arms, buzz and tingle all the time. Well anyway i could list everything but i'd be here all night , since i can only type a few words at a time. I want so much to scream about this subject Sick Buildings and i know that my co workers that have DIED, want me to scream for them also!
