We found stachy in bathroom shower knee wall. Aspergillus/penicillim as well and

others were behind wall cavity. No idea the stachy until physical test.

The remediator didnt find much mold he said.. seeming everything was fine but

the knee wall.. I had told him to take out any studs that had mold on them and

he leaves the knee wall studs. This guy seemed to know his stuff and I am really

perplexed.

So we go back home before the inspection because he didnt see much mold and I

take a look and see mold all over the knee wall.. which he coated with some

miracle cure that has a 20 year warentee.. for got the name of it.

So report comes back stachy.. air is great except 7 spores per square meter of

stachy in living room. all other air was fine. The bathroom was upstairs, LR

main level.. how the heck did the stacy get in teh air in teh LR?

Inspector said it could ahve come off of clothing, shoes, etc.. or the new

plants I had recently bought from lowes.. I read where plants inproved ari

quality... questioing that and also questioning the plants as a source of the

stachy...

Also the LR air read 4000 aspergillus, penicillum.. all otehr areas we in good

range?

Any clues as to what was going on?

We had first inspection 3 months before remediation. I had already stopped using

master bath.. source.. because soemthing didnt feel right.. I am chronically ill

and had been getting worse..

Between the time of first inspection and remediation...had shaking attacks

several nights and stopped sleeping in master bedroom.. went to hospital with

chest pains, tachy.. checked for pulmonary embolism, heart, etc.. nothing.

Could not using teh shower.. told my husband probably bette rnot to... the 3

months between teh inspection and the remediation have released more spores? The

source of moisture intrusion into the knee wall was improperly sealed tile

edges.. should have been caulked.. there was an open seam by this time.

Lastly.. our outdoor spore count just a few weeks ago was 9000 spores per

swquare meter.. much of which is apergillis penicillum.. we live on 10 acres and

are surrounded by 100 acres of deciduous trees.. I grew up in alabama where the

closet thing to leaf piles we had were pine needles and I am wondering if its

possible for some people not to be able to tolerate this.

I do have the shoemaker halotype but so do my husband and my daughter and they

are not bedridden or anywhere near it.. my daghter does have chronic candida

though.. could it be mold causing this?

Sorry so long..

Thank you!!!

Robin
