believe it or not, your experiences are actually pretty typical of those who suffer from mold poisoning

It can be very devastating, and people simply don't understand. And that includes the medical professionals who are supposed to be helping you

I wish I had a perfect answer for you, but I can just tell you some information and what is help me

first off EVERYTHING from your old apartment is contaminated with mold. Or at least everything that is not plastic and/or wood, and even some of the wood might be. But all of your clothing, you're bedding, mattresses, curtains, etc. ALL are contaminated with mold

I know it's not what you want to hear. but you need to replace all of that. You are constantly being reinfected by breathing in the mold spores from your curtains your sheets your shoes etc. anything that was in your old apartment

You need an air purifier, but don't get a Hepa filter. All that does is trapped the mold, it doesn't kill it. What you need is an air purifier with UV light. Preferably more than one. Make sure it is 254 nm (actually 253.7 nm)wavelength. this is the wavelength that actually will kill the mold. Put one in your bedroom, and one in your living room. Perhaps one in your kitchen also. Yes it will be expensive but it's worth it.

you might want to look into the drug called cholestyramine. There are doctors who are using this drug to bind to mold toxins in the liver and intestinal track and remove them from the body.

the thing that is helping me most is to be very very diligent about NEVER allowing any kind of mold to grow in my living space. Also wash my clothes with a combination of 8% hydrogen peroxide (pretreat, although beware because it may bleach slightly), Borax, citrasolv, and non-scented laundry detergent. That is helping
