Depression from Mold is most likely

I am going to be tested for allergies on 10/26/11, I have been researching on a British site about mold allergies and this is what is happening to me.


The Symptoms of Mould Allergy
Many of the symptoms are identical with those of IBS and sometimes, food allergy, probably because moulds are part of the cause in these conditions, however the following are more marked in mould allergy:
  • Gross mood swings including depression (paralysing in the mornings) Acute fear and panic with rapid heart (often treated by cardiologists with anticoagulants and cardioversion,) this is usually worse at 3AM and involves waking up terrified night after night, and may eventually develop into fear of going to sleep.
  • Bouts of energy loss to the point of total inertia, where the thought of doing anything at all is quite impossible.
  • Joint pains usually leading to arthritis in large weight-bearing joints.
  • These symptoms may vary in intensity depending on the weather.
  • They may also be much worse in some houses than others.
Other General Symptoms
  • Obesity unresponsive to dietary restriction
  • Symptoms of IBS including bloating
Localised Symptoms
  • Hay Fever and nasal symptoms
  • Asthma
  • Urinary problems, frequency
  • Joint pains
  • Flatulence, abdominal bloating
  • Swelling of legs and ankle
