my workplace has a mold problem, school had mold problem, old workplace had mold problem. at this point i am oversensitive to it, and i can't get away from mold because all buildings here are old as shit.
doctor just basically shrugs and doesn't offer any solutions because there aren't any. they also refuse to acknowledge the mold, saying it's just dust allergy... like ffs there's grass growing from the walls, i know there's fucking mold!
getting another job and hoping they don't have a mold problem there too isn't an option because over 10% of the population here is unemployed, there simply aren't other jobs available.
the symptoms usually start to disappear at the end of yearly vacations (which are 1 month), and when i return it gets waaaay worse for a few weeks. and ofc allergy season also makes it 5x worse.
Geez, I'm sorry to hear all that.
So far I've tried various over-the-counter stuff, and it doesn't help much. About five different pharmaceuticals, but then there's the physical "neti pot" which I still haven't gotten to work, yet. Should probably try that one again...
