Guest guest Posted November 18, 2011 Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 Yes but I'm not really sure what worked. I just cleaned a lot. When I started on antibiotics those issues resolved gradually, it took months but I had a really bad case.AaOn Nov 18, 2011, at 1:28 PM, Linds J <lj_mom11@...> wrote: but you did treat your environment?

Guest guest Posted November 18, 2011 Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 - you need to deal with that if it's mold related. Nearly impossible to recover when molds are present. It's a constant source of toxins to the body. I saw those floating things in the last place I lived, and on many surfaces.AaOn Nov 18, 2011, at 1:38 PM, Goldstein@... wrote: I still have weird fibers floating in the air.

Guest guest Posted November 18, 2011 Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 Some molds are toxic... others not so much... some new mold species are just now being identified too, probably as a result of global warming.From: "Linds J" <lj_mom11@...>bird mites Sent: Friday, November 18, 2011 11:53:06 AMSubject: Re: scared Mold is everywhere.
