Wish I had advice for you. anita ---From: Danel Subject: [] breathing in dry spores/nette pot ? i have mold toxicity from exposure 2 x ( different houses) have been sick from it the last 4 1/2 years, recently realized, moved and left all behind, moved to another state, rented house, had mold guy come first to investigate. also have mercury toxicity causing me a great deal of physical, neuro sx. having chemical sensitivities from the mold . just had a exposure from breathing in airborne dry spores from a job my landlord did to remove window trim that had mold on it . the trim was dry, warped rotten, wood caused from condinsation. a mold dog hit on it. the landlord said he would plastic off and bring fan to create neg pressure, didn't bring fan and pulled down plastic when done before it was vacuumed or blown out. i went back to see the area, took a fairly deep breath and the reaction was immed. burning eyes, nose, throat, lungs, my sinus cavity was on fire and the bones in my face hurt for days, everyday my eyes had goop in them, nose stuffed up, and deep lung cough, headache. haven't had these mold sx before, except last exposure burning eye, nose ears and throat, but nothing like this. that was 10 days ago. my eyes are better, my nose still stuffy and lungs still hurt and have a dry painful cough. today i tried the nettle pot with warm distilled water and 1/4 sea salt. my nose is much better but it caused a instant headache and my head is filled with brain fog now, my head/brain doesn't feel like it is attached to my body. is this common from sea salt washes for people with mold? or mercury? will these sx go away, as reaction settles? inhaling these dry gas toxic spores, have i done further and irreversible damage? the airborne spores have probable entered the house. had it vacuumed with hepa and neg pressure fan, all surfaces wiped with vinegar, wall, floors, furniture( all furniture removed outside and blown with leaf blower then wiped with vinegar) will that get rid of the dry spores? can i do something else? can't believe my reaction and stupidity for going back there. this mold sucks and so hard to get rid of and away from. any help denise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 , are you still living in the contaminated house? Hopefully you didn't move any of your belongings into it. I can only speak from my experience and no matter how well the house was re-mediated I had no choice but to move. I used a netti pot after my first exposure and the ENT said instead of just pouring it in one nostril and out the other side plug the side that's draining and snort a little bit of the solution into your sinuses than release it and continue pouring the problem with that is your nose drains the solution for a good half hour after you finished but I have to admit it does work. To answer your question no, I never had that experience when using a netti pot. i went back to see the area, took a fairly deep breath and the reaction was immed. burning eyes, nose, throat, lungs, my sinus cavity was on fire and the bones in my face hurt for days, everyday my eyes had goop in them, nose stuffed up, and deep lung cough, headache. haven't had these mold sx before, except last exposure burning eye, nose ears and throat, but nothing like this that was 10 days ago. my eyes are better, my nose still stuffy and lungs still hurt and have a dry painful cough. today i tried the nettle pot with warm distilled water and 1/4 sea salt. my nose is much better but it caused a instant headache and my head is filled with brain fog now, my head/brain doesn't feel like it is attached to my body.

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 tug, no i was living in new orleans in the house. not sure if the house itself was moldy, i had moved to the house with all my moldy furniture from the first house i lived in that made me sick. i had been in storage foe 2 years, while i tried to get well at my mothers, i didn't know it was mold when i was living in the first house, or my moms, i figured it out in new orleans after living there for about 6 weeks. i thought, " wow, i am sick like i was at that 1st house i lived in " a light bulb went off, it was the house that made me sick! i was so sick by then i couldn't walk, barely talk, had horrid inner tremors, my brain wouldn't work, tunnel and distorted vision, and the leaky gut had extreme sx. i could not keep any food or water in. i was extremely dehydrated. i drove myself to the hospital, got 3 IV, went to a hotel, my daughter flew in form NYC that night, we left everything in new orleans and drove to denver, i don't know how i was in a car foe 3 days, very sick. started CSM that week, that was 4 weeks ago. we stayed in a hotel until we rented this place, and the rest is below. i think except for the window trim the house is clean, there are some places i want him to check out. the house is all brick outside, and plaster walls inside, the good news is the plaster and brick meet as one wall there is no wood framing between the walls. the land lord will investigate some more and i hope if he find mold he will hire someone and not try to do it himself, at that point i may have to leave for good. you feel if there is mold in a house, no matter if the re-mediated was done right and successful, it still isn't right and one has to leave? the room is in the back, an addition(bad roof job) we have it completely doubled plastic off with no entry to main house. i am still sick, the fatigue is unbearable, and i seem to be reacting to chem stuff, plastic, etc but don't feel like i felt in new orleans, so hopefully it is safe and my sickness and reactions are chem and this one time dry spore exposure hope, pray to God denise ________________________________ From: Tug <tug_slug@...> Sent: Fri, January 21, 2011 7:09:02 PM Subject: [] Re: breathing in dry spores/nette pot , are you still living in the contaminated house?
