Guest guest Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 WOW, I can see(from my own experence) this can effect your thinking, as far as not being able to consentrate and how that leads to many mistakes, bad desisions, and really not realizeing what is happening to your body, but after I found out that toxic molds were in my homes, got out of it and started felling a little better (funtioning brain wise)which took about a year to even dawn on me to take a list of the molds found in my homes and go to the libuary and look them up(never had comp. at the time and libuary made MCS effects) but just reading about these molds and possable effects made a dim light bulb go off in my head because I had all these symptoms. because I was still not functioning very well, and relying on first lawyer to know what he was doing, I didn't get back on the comp. for another year. but I was starting to piece all the puzzle together, and pin pointed the start of my exposure because I did have some very bad symptoms from the start from stachoboctrys exposure, such as infections, anixitys and dieerhia and fatique. other symptoms were more gradual, like my sinus problems, skin, bladder, female organs and kidneys. this was all in my first home, a victorian, and the fact that its is a older built home and airyer, actually helped stachy mold because it dried out and became airborne and with the help of windy days would filter through the several sets of pocket doors in this home.It may be why IM still here today, because it was airyer.long term exposure to lower amounts. but in my second home amounts were high and preexposure set me up for a big fall, mainly aspergillus,penicillium but this home attacked my lungs, made some of my symptoms worse, except there were a few differences in symptoms in each home. but I defenitly noticed in this home(took a few months to realize it) that I would fell better outside, yeah, my feble brain started relizeing that it was something in the home, after the process of elemanation, MOLD, moved out, stayed with daughter 1 month, moved back into my first home, old symptoms came back, but much stronger(because of exposure at second home), ding, ding, light bulb, there has to be mold here to. yep, sure was, and by now IM a mess, my daughters saying I have withdrawel symptoms every time I leave the home, and shes right, its like it had taken over my body and I varely had the sence to get out. so, ok, now I've been studying this some, and only because I've been through it , do I have the ability to understand. I even had a problem believeing that some one could suffer perminant memory loss from this, but than I read how it attacks the weakest parts of your body first and a light bulb went off. I have always had a great memory, better than a lot of people I know. so maybe, someone with not so great a memory to start with, could suffer memory loss(long term memory loss). I did suffer short term memory loss bad and still have some problems in that area. as you can see I also have a problem with forgetting what this post was even about,lol's and easily get off on different subjects. > > > > > this person has /had many of the symptoms that i have still > have ,,,,, one more piece of the puzzle......rt > > > > > It is incredible to watch all this happening and be unable to warn > anyone in advance, or engage peoples interest in taking an active > role in researching their illness after they are sick. > I know of a building in which the employees know full well that the > place is making them ill but continue to act as if they cannot see > it happening. > An acquaintance worked there until the point of winding up in the > hospital with all these same mold problems - and the doctors are > mystified and clueless. > Her physician treated her with antibiotics, and for a few weeks, her > very life was in doubt.
