You may wish to ask your doctor to discuss with you the types of chemical substances known to be related to such pathologies as you to describe. You may then, check with your local health dept. and/or EPA division to find out any information they may be able to supply you with substances from this sewer you say you've been exposed to in order to see if there indeed is a likely relationship between what's your experiencing and exposure to the sewer gases.
