Symptoms of Fungal Exposure (Mycotoxicosis)

Posted: Monday, July 12th, 2010

Mold toxicity is often the end result with constant exposure to mold of a toxic substance.  A common misconception among allergists who are untrained in this type of toxicity levels in humans, which is technically not their area of expertise unless they have trained specifically in environmental medicine with their  background in immunology, is to do general allergen testing.  Most tests usually result in an unequivocal result, a 2+ or less.  This induces some physicians to order allergy shots, regardless.  These shots are absolutely worthless (and could possibly be harmful) to a person who has been heavily exposed to these mycotoxins as they are already in a state of toxicity.  If anything, this could exacerbate the problem.  Because many doctors are not trained in this field, they may try to “guess” at a diagnosis.

Couple does battle with builder over leaks, mold

Posted: Sunday, February 7th, 2010

MILFORD – The stain on the bedroom carpet should have been a tip-off.

Debra and Ron Shusterman noticed the six-inch long brown spot during a walk-through of their new home in May 2008.

But the house at 170 Badger Hill Drive had served as a model for the recent phase of the Badger Hill development, and everyone thought it was just a coffee or soda stain.

Four months after the couple moved in, heavy rain from a nor’easter sent water into the house, damaging and discoloring the ceiling and wall of the second-floor bedroom, right near the carpet stain, indicating it was not spilled coffee or soda but the result of a leak.

Property owners at risk from serious water damage claims

Property owners at risk from serious water damage claims

Paul Redington, property claims manager for Aviva, said: “Water damage claims tend to peak during the first two weeks of January and this could be as owners return to their premises following the festive break. However, losses don’t just occur during the Christmas break.  Any long period of closure can mean water damage can escalate where the leak remains undetected whether it is during holiday periods or even during the night or at weekends.

“With around 300 gallons of water passing through a pipe in just 10 minutes³ the results can lead to substantial damage.
