(Adding pictures of kinda nasty stuff so I’m sorry 😭 this is so embarrassing… 1st pic is my chest X-ray from mid 2022, after the ceiling but before i moved into the new slumlord house. 2nd is the chest X-rays from when i started getting hospitalized from the breathing attacks. And i added some of my throat too because whatever this is tastes horrible like acid and burns and has little been rotting my teeth and making my entire mouth burn) Age: 23 Sex: Female Height: 5’4 Weight: 170 something Race: White Any existing relevant medical issues: before this I was completely healthy Current medications: red inhaler

Backstory: So about 3 years ago the ceiling of my old house caved and fell on me while I was in the shower and it was filled with asbestos and black mold. After that, I started having slight sinus issues and a coughing problem but it wasn’t too serious. Skip to last year, I was living in this horrible slum lord rental and (skip the long story) started getting severely sick (which is rare because I literally never get sick and when I do it’s small then over in a week). At first I was coughing up an uncomfortable amount of the most thickest nasty ass neon green/yellow mucus, and then it became this series of different shit to come out of my throat. Sometimes it was this weird orange brown liquidy mucus, pure liquid that tasted like acid and burned, mucus with this weird cream and tan brown color, literal fully solid rock feeling type of things that were dark brown and black, and throughout all that there was days it would be straight red and black. I started to become unable to breathe from the slightest activity and even walking to the bathroom would land me in a severe attack that would hospitalize me. It became a weekly visit for me. Come to find out the ENTIRE place was infested with black mold , and I’m an agoraphobic, I rarely leave the house, so I was just there festering in it.

The medical system where I live is complete trash. They lie so they don’t have to do their job and shit. So I was told each hospital visit that I was fine, it was just allergies. But after I was able to get approved to see my full medical records, I find out there’s a 3cm lesion in the upper nodule of my left lung, I was coughing so hard I ended up fracturing a few ribs, and something called dissension above my larynx. I’m not sure if it has anything to do with my close relationship to the mold of my life lol but seeming as though I was healthy before that ceiling and then got worse at this new mold house it’s the only thing I can think of. I’ve left the other place now too and I live somewhere mold free, and since i have drastically improved but I still feel like I literally can’t breathe on one side of my throat if that makes sense and my coughing attacks about 2-4 hours every day where I cough up the arrangement of neutral rainbows.

Please if anyone knows anything at all or has advice or suggestions let me know please so I can get back to my old self again and get out this depression my sickness has put me in. Thanks.
