Re: LDN & Mold problem in my home

[Guest guest]

I have thought maybe my lesion is caused by mold also and I can't find

a solution to get rid of the mold b/c it's in my Plenum(where all

ducts hook up under the house) and that means my air ducts are blowing

mold spores all in my house and it can have the musky odor sometimes

too. I think this has contributed to my chronic sinus.

I have a damp crawl space and I have a plastic barrier down but after

living here 12 years, the moisture has caused the air system to have

mold in it. Even when I get a new air system, I don't know how to

prevent the mold and the air ducts would have to be replaced.

One company said they use Sporcidin but that is a pesticide and they

said they would have to treat every 6 months b/c it is hard to get rid

of all the spores. I also have exotic pets and cats and they

sporcidin can kill them. They offered to pay for a hotel but I can't

see me taking 9 animals to a hotel and when exactly is it safe to go

back in my house. The sporcidin can't be good to be breathing but the

mold isn't either. They say sporcidin is used in hospitals.

I know mold is outside everywhere but can't be good to have in air

system blowing molds all in my house. When I put out a couple mold

kits that you incubate, every color mold showed up in the dish. I

would like to live in a mold free house. I wasn't a sinus queen until

a couple years of living in this house and from there had the lesion

symptoms and went downhill.

My lesion did become inactive on the Revia so maybe the LDN can help

but I think my lesion was becoming active again on the generic so

hopefully I can get back to good after a while on the BM Revia that

worked for 6+ months.

How are you getting your mold problem solved?

I have CFS, and the LDN is helping me immensely-------so go for it.

I've also dealt with mold in home. Are you having a specialist test?

to the tune of $1,000?? Will your insurance cover?? Down here in the

states things are pretty tricky to get payment. I saw Dr. R.

Shoemaker, one the countrys leading neurotoxin MD's, and he said, " if

you don't get the mold out, you'll never get well " . It cost $40,000

to cure a minor problem, no walls taken down etc. My inheritance

from my very frugal parents inabled me to have the work done---thanks

Mom and Dad.

An extermiator's spray wand with tank (Home Depot) filled with oxygen

bleach/water (Oxy Clean).Spray every square inch in the house.No more mold.

Rhonda, where do you live?

My doctor, Dr. R. Shoemaker, just published book, Mold Warriors.

You can order at www.chronicneurtoxins.com or call his office, 410-

957-1550. Since it's been in the home for so long, don't see any

recourse but to " remediate " --------or move. Could you move?

God Bless,

It would be wonderful if that helped------but what about the mold

imbedded in the floors, carpet, walls, furniture, and on and on???

And how does she get the supply vents clean, or stop the reason it

happens???? I have heard of setting that sort of solution in a room

for preventative measures, but not for remediation, BUT who knows.

I do know that I'm chemically sensitive and the clorox would kill

me.

I'm in North Carolina and it's HUMID here a lot.

I feel that I'm trapped and no way out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

This might be second time this arrives???

Anyway, I too am in N.C. We have done some preventative measures

after the thousands spent to remediate. Since the house is older, the

plastic is up the walls and bottom of crawl space. Have humidifier

running in crawl space, and vents closed (why let humidity in??) We

have inexpensive humidity monitors from Radio Shack that read the

crawl space, bedrooms, and other rooms-------we never allow it to get

over 55%, which means doors and windows closed 90% of summer. We also

learned to leave air on automatic, so the water collected when cycling

isn't pushed into house. Our initial problem occured when on vacation

and the drip line broke and house filled with humidity!!!!!!!!!!!!

One way you might be able to go is purchase of an Aranizer. It is a

potent ozone cleaner, that you set up in a room for several hours,

then open windows and use fans to push ozone out for hour or more.

There is a neat lady, Meehan-Patton, lives in Ashville, who's

business is to help others determine how to " clear " homes and keep

them free of mold. Her email, shelterco@.... I am chemical

sensitive, and this unit saved me when visiting my daughters newly

painted/remodeled home!!!!!!!

I can see maybe using a De-humidifier but why would you want more

moisture in crawl space. I don't want that for sure b/c condensation

on AC unit is what caused the inside of plenum to mold. My dad put a

fan under that running in summer b/c I had a plug outlet under the

house. Not sure it's doing much but he has it pointed towards the AC

unit part under house. Obviously didn't help the plenum from molding

inside. I do have to figure out something when I get a new unit and I

wonder the cost of all air ducts replaced. One place said I'd have to

pay a service cost just for an estimate and I didn't do that. I did

get one of those lifetime electromagnetic filters for the air return

but not sure that is doing much. I keep vent filters on too and wash

the electro filter once a month and leave out and let dry 2 days and

put a regular filter in while the other dries out. It's not like I go

under house and mold fur is everywhere but you can smell the

dampness. My dad doesn't get it b/c he think he should see mold

growing all over the wood under the house and doesn't get the mold in

the plenum. The plenum I think could be washed with bleach or

something but I can't do this myself and the spores/mold has to be all

in the ducts. My ducts are the black mesh kind and they have

installation around inside perimeter which that just holds moisture

and dust/bacteria and blows in my house. I also keep the house vents

open in summer and closed in cold winter. Seems to me that opening

them would let more humidity in but my dad thinks it helps air the

crawl space out. Well, he doesn't have to live in this or deal with

sinus mess all the time so he does't really get it. He claims

everyone has some mold in air systems.

Silly me, I meant dehumidifier???

Did some research in the meantime---seems conventional wisdom is to

not use chlorox---it is 70% water??? Ironically, my son called

yesterday from the NC coast, and their vacation/rental there, one

year old has visible mold in the toilet closet?? I've emailed an

expert on mold to get advise--------as the contractor wants to tell

him, " yep, been a lot of that this summer due to the humidity " . And

this mold warrior, isn't taking that explanation.

You are right, you don't have to see the mold, to know it's there.

When my house was remediated, several wood items, old mantel, etc

had to be removed and even though they " zapped " them in their

trailer, wearing their moon suits, they advised me to never take

back into the home------what a heartbreak.

I " m in Greensboro------where for art though???
