Does Exposure To Mold Cause Dizziness, Hearing Loss, Dry Throat And Impaired Thoughts?
My son is 30 years old. For about 6 months he has been feeling sick with disorientation, dizziness, one ear is not normal, congestion in his sinuses and chest. His throat is always dry. He went to our doctor who referred him to an ENT. He went to the ENT and has a hearing test scheduled for Monday. We think it may be mold exposure
