    Black Mold is a fungus that is very toxic. If you have an infection from it you will most likely need a fungicide type of Med like Flagal. This can make you very ill by itself. I just went through 2 months of treatment for a nasal fungal infection and it is no fun. Try saline nasal spray in the mean time. This will help with your sinus problem. Do not use the steroid type of spray it will just make matters worst.

    Wow I knew mold was bad but not that bad!!
    I usually react poorly to meds (by I get sick off just about all of them). I'm really not looking ofrward to the Dr.s visit anymore... Of course I'm going, but I'm gonna make Jordan go too. I'm gonna email Digi's vet & see what they say... I'm hoping I can give them both childrens benadril(sp) or whatever that allergy med is thats ok for dogs, so I can prevent her & Cash from getting ill. Cash's new daddy (Cash's catsitter (a good friend of ours) wanted Cash REALLY bad as a pet & Cash JUST loves him to pieces, so we are allowing Jason to have Cash) will be taking Cash to the vet & making homemade food for him. So I don't need to worry about Cash for too long. But I will give a good portion of the allergy meds to Jason to help Cash.

    I don't know about Canada, but in the US they can condemn a place that's unfit to live in, although black mold is debateable in my state.

    I know this from personal experience looking info up online because I have a TON of black mold in my basement (floors/walls). I used to try and clean it up, but the leaking down there is so bad it's not worth the effort anymore. The slightest rain and the water comes in. Just leaving the garden hose on (which leaks) can cause water to go in the basement.

    Not saying it's damp down there or anything, but I've had mushrooms growing out of the cement floor before, and it didn't dry up down there until we were 2 months into a drought! *sigh*

    I hope you are able to have legal action taken against the landlord to get things made right, or able to find a healthier place to live. Good luck.

    They do the same here. They plan to shut it down & force the landlord to remove the apt. as its also illegal.

    Thats terrible!

    I'll be moving out by force. The government will be shutting down the place. They are kinda... mad... Not at me thought. They told me to get out ASAP.. I'll be looking at a VERY nice place tomorrow morning

    I don't like the 1300 rent, but its CLEAN & in a fantastic area!
    I'm currently in a nice area too, but this individual house is a hazard to everyone :S
