5 year old daughter with neck pain

[Guest guest]

I wanted to thank all of you for your advice. Here is the

background.. Our mold exposure was breif compared to most others.

We purchased a brand new RV in the state of Arkansas. From the day we

drove off in it to make our way back to California, I was sick. After

4 weeks of complaining about a " musty " smell to my husband I asked

him to pull the carpet back, just to see if we could find the source

of the odor. Under the carpet was covered in Black Mold. It went up

the wall (behind the wall paper) behind the electrical panel. So,

our exposure was for 4 weeks. My husband myself and our 2 youngest

children slept in it for 3 nights, and obviously made the drive back

to california. The rest of my children were exposed daily. We

bought the RV to be my everyday car (it's a small RV about 21 feet

long), we have 6 children. So daily they were exposed, when ever we

went anywhere. The levels of mold were tested and they were

aspergillius/penicillium 21507- Cladosporium 5092- Stachybotrys 804

Even though our exposure was somewhat breif, 3 of us have suffered

constant symptoms, all vary.

My 5 year old with the neck pain...she is perfect in every other

way. No complaints of headache, earache, nose issues. Just the

constant neck pain at the base of her skull, numbness in her limbs

and sharp pain in her eye. The symptoms come and go, except the neck

pain, she says that it never goes away. She has had x-rays taken

twice now and both were " normal " . She is seeing an orthopedic

sergon/sports medicine doctor today. I'll keep eveyone posted as to

what this doctor says. I hate to say it but I don't think that he

will have any answers.
