SIDEBAR #20- Arias/Alexander forum

[21merc7]

Do you see an allergist or dermatologist for your skin allergies? If so, I would ask them what to do. If you have any, any breathing problems, please get out ASAP.

When is the HVAC person coming? If it were me, I'd want to explain the situation to her/him and find out exactly what they were doing to treat the mold.

I can't visualize your heating unit, so I'm not sure what might work. Bleach is usually the best topical agent used to kill mold. My mom's condo ended up with a huge mold problem after her unit flooded from a plumbing leak. We had to have a mold assessment and professionals come in to remediate the mold. With her HVAC system, the air handler and interior duct work were cleaned with HEPA vacuuming following the heavy duty cleaning.

Just set an appointment with the dermatologist, first opening is 23rd, but at least I can get some more ointment. I have some expired ointment left to use for now.

The heating/a.c. guy came Friday and yesterday. He fixed the unit so it works, but it is still leaking and will short circuit again.

I just sent a fax to the landlord about it still leaking and about the mold growth. I do not think they will send anyone to fix the mold, I have no idea. The building is very old (1910) and is full of mold, so I doubt the firewall material being moldy will bother them. I did include that it is causing allergic reactions, and it is getting difficult to breathe in there. It got better when I left for work. I turned on my room size air filter, hoping that will help. The skin allergies didn't start until I moved into this apartment. (Always had allergic rhinitis though.) I didn't think the apartment was the cause as I've lived in worse places, but now I think it is, and my lease just renewed on the 1st for another year. Carpet, dust mites, mold in walls. :sigh:


Thanks for the info. I hope the landlords do something about it, I don't know if I can spray bleach in there, but I included in the fax that if they recommend something I can spray in there, I will get to it immediately.

Maybe the defense is still trying to convince CMJA to take a deal? That could be why they need more time. Of course she will not, and who cares. More chances at a DP verdict. She really likes pushing her luck.

Thanks to all trying to explain the Gov. Shutdown. I still don't fully understand, but I understand slightly better. I am just not knowledgeable on the big Gov. stuff.

Everyone that is sick or not feeling well, I hope you feel better soon. Ricki -good luck, break a leg, fingers crossed, prayers sent, that the job is yours.

Happy to hear doggie and all floors are clean of mud. Mud tastes like dirt, I actually tried some mud pie when I was a child, lol!

Allergy season has started for Autumn. I have a big allergy question for anyone in the know.

I have severe skin allergies and usual nasal/eye allergies. My central air/furncae unit went out in my apartment due to leaking, the landlord is having someone work on it. My face is starting the blistering rash that makes me look like a Klingon (no joke) and scars, right between my eyes. It is because of the increased humidity and dustmite activity and the mold that is now growing on the firewall material inside the unit, where I put the air filter. Anyone know of anything I can safely spray on that material, that is non-flammable, and get rid of the mold?

Vinegar solution KILLS mold (even black & powder mold)--stronger vinegar, the better. It works on pet urine also. Vinegar kills 99% germs same as bleach without the damaging effects. Good luck!

True that! When bridles or saddles get mildew the only thing that removes it is vinegar.

Just plain cheap white vinegar--I also use it in my carpet shampooer (& in washing machine to KILL ODORS). I had carpet in a bathroom and had to use vinegar to kill the mold starting on the edge of the carpet near the tub--finally moved to a place with NO CARPET in the bathrooms.

Thanks.

hello everyone, haven't posted in awhile but wanted to give you all a quick update. the dr thinks im having a miscarriage. when i went for my ultrasound there was no heartbeat and the measurements weren't what they should have been. i go back tomorrow to make sure. haven't had any miscarriage symptoms yet but i think all the stress im under could be part of the reason. dr said if it is a miscarriage and my body doesn't handle it on it's own i will have to have a D&C which i really do not want. I find out for sure tomorrow. If it is not a viable pregnancy (which i have had a gut instinct from the second i got a positive test that something was wrong) then he will give me 2 weeks for my body to try to pass the tissue, then if that doesn't happen I have the D&C.

The weird thing is, I'm not that upset. Maybe that will change later but I know how common these things are and I know it happens at this early stage for reasons only Mother Nature knows. Now is not the ideal time for me to have another baby, my body isn't ready I don't think, especially after that c-section. Anyway, just wanted to let you all know. I will come back tmw and let you know definitively.

Oh, Meghan--
Life just sucks sometimes.
Miscarriage is hard (if it is one- here's hoping the MD may be wrong). It’s lonely. I wish I could say "Let's go to lunch and be angry!", but you can post here when you need us for comfort.
This must be really difficult for you and your husband.
Even if I've been through a loss myself, I know that everyone’s experience is different; your pain is important and personal.
I know you will find your own path to healing, if need be- whatever that may be and for however long that will take.

You will be in my prayers. Take care, honey.

Emphasis added!

It is not in the news as much as Nurmi would like the court to believe.

Hi I was told to soak my nebulizer in vinegar to sterilize it. :seeya:

I had my 2nd interview today. I think it went well. The president liked the questions I had. Both of the interviewers were pleasant. gCharlie, you were right. I did not get an answer yet. sigh... It is between me and one other woman. I should know by the end of the week, maybe sooner, if I will be employed by them.

You can't have enough prayers said in your behalf. Also, enough body parts crossed. LOL
Looking for a decent job is full time work in itself. I don't want to take just anything. I want a job that I can feel I am making a good contribution but I also want to be in a job that I enjoy going to everyday. I still have a lot of work years ahead of me. I will pray that things turn around for you also.

Breaking news on HLN ... Madeleine McCann was spotted alive a few weeks ago by a very credible witness. Nancy is on TV right now.

Just turned it on. Where was she spotted? They are saying she is being raised by another couple.

I will remain extremely cynical until they identify her properly.

I've long believed that she was killed by her parents. I'm happy to be wrong in this case though!
