Do I go in again tomorrow? Do I use my sick time while on colasyramine? Do I

retire 2 years early? What would you do?

thx, felice

Felice, I am a former teacher and had to leave my job but without any

retirement at all! I am much better than I was but still avoid any buildings

that I know has had water damage. One teacher that I worked with stayed a year

longer than I did and is extremely sick. Knowing what I know I can honestly tell

you to get out NOW because you will most likely get worse. I took my CSM 4X a

day without ever missing a dose, I stayed home most of the time and avoided most

places. Not a very exciting life but at least I stay fairly well. I try to limit

my errands to one a day, that way if I get any symptoms then I know not to

return. Process of elimination is the best way for me. In the past 2 yrs. I have

found where I can go unless it's a new place. I also carry a mask for odors that

make me sick.

If you wantto talk I'll be happy to call you anytime just let me know.

I have to tell the list first, that I know Felice. Never met her, but

she called me this summer from a nearby school district and was worried

that MCS was the end of her life, and I thank her here publicly for

reminding me of that feeling... cuz its real and riveting.

Anyway, Felice,

I guess I could just call you, but everyone should read - we all know

whats at stake. My district 20 min away have dropped me off payroll as I

sit in WC court. Im winning and they appeal and block my salry. The

other teachers watch this and do you thing they will say that the

continued leaks (yes, still happening) are maybe affecting them... doubt

it. And the fact that schools test for mold and do PROPER

remediation...is all voluntary. Yeah, theyll do that sure, instead of

get new text books....

In the end we have to check out own health ultimately we are the only

ones who care about it. Hopefully you called in sick today and insited

they get a dehumidifier. They need to have us NOT be passive. stand up

for our health, for all the kids health. Be loud. I have in fact, sent a

letter to my lawyer today, saying that if he didnt call me by 5 pm, a

letter is going to all local press and all govt officals. No call. Guess

Im pressing send. mPress, at this point, is my only weapon.
