Could I be sick from mold?
We have mold all over our bathroom, and kitchen. I breathe it in often.
I went to the doctor after having a sore throat and difficulty breathing for a week. She said part of my lung isnt getting air like it should, but my Xray was normal. She also said she would be surprised if I didn’t have strep, but that came back negative. (My tonsils are larger than normal, she said)
Point is, I’m going on 2 weeks coughing, 1 week difficulty breathing. Like, can barely talk. When I am at home I am mostly fine, but at work I was really, really struggling and when I am active I rely on the inhaler I was prescribed. I have left work early the past 3 days, after missing a full day Wednesday. So this has affected 4 days of work.
I am going to call the doctor back Monday if I am not better, but is it worth it to say I have mold in my home? My mother also smokes a ton so that could be it also?
I am just getting scared. Its been a while dealing with this. So I want to make sure I am not overthinking the mold thing before I tell the doc on Monday.
