According to one study, many cases of mold-linked illness can’t be explained by allergic reactions. A report by allergists David A. Edmondson, DO, Jordan N. Fink, MD, and colleagues at Medical College of Wisconsin, appeared in the February 2005 issue of Annals of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology. Symptoms of exposure found in the patients in that study can be diverse, including:
- runny nose
- cough
- headache
- shortness of breath
- wheezing
- chest tightness
- other breathing problems
- itchy eyes
- nervous system problems
- dizziness
- anxiety
- weakness
- restless legs
- memory loss
- shaking
- intestinal problems
- nausea, vomiting
- gut pain
- nosebleed
- urinary problems
We always recommend that you get your home tested for mold.
