I didn't look but I'm gonna guess legionnaires disease.

The link still works, although you have to copy and paste it. He has nasal polyposis.

Ah. I think that's what a guy I used to work with had. If it's the same thing it's minor but necessary surgery. I hope you raise the dough. You really should look into any and all government or charitable healthcare options available or at least borrow some money. It sucks but best to nip it in the bud or it could cost WAY more.  Cheers.

sharke--> Thank you. Some people are affected heavily by mold because they are allergic to it, and others seem to be immune. Studies show that nasal polyps are linked to asthma and cystic fibrosis, so there is some underlying genetic predisposition to the condition. If you've been exposed to mold, then you should definitely get checked out by a physician. I moved out of the house that had the mold and into an apartment with central air. The unit here is brand new and totally clean. You can bet that I'll be keeping an eye on it regularly. That's amazing that the doctor did that for you. The rate I've posted for the surgery is the discounted rate. If I can qualify for the government's PCIP insurance, then the cost of my care will drop.

Rain-->Thank you.

Beagle-->Thank you. It is much appreciated. I'm planning on getting healed. /thumbs up

jbow-->Thank you. Thanks to people like you, I am getting what I need.

Linear Phase-->Thank you. I'm waiting to hear back from the local health and human services office about medicaid.

Old55-->Thank you.

Crg-->You have to copy/paste the link. I tried to get it to work here on the forum, but it didn't. I'll put a note on it.

Beepster-->Thank you. Actually, because of how bad my condition is, it's a major surgery. Triple or more time needed than the average, hence the cost. The CT scan showed 100% blockage from top to bottom, and it looks like a sea urchin is trying to work its way out of my sinuses and down the back of my throat. I'm filling out every form and contacting every agency I can find. The solution is already there, I just have to find it.

Thank you everyone for your kind words, encouragement, and donations. If you have the time, please share the link to my indiegogo campaign on your facebook or twitter. The more traffic and referrals generated, the closer I get to being on the front page, and the closer I get to having my surgery.

Good luck to you!  (Unfortunately I'm getting a short-term loan from a friend to cover my rent so I can't help out right now.)

I've had issues with mold before.  Here's a picture that might look familiar, it's what they did to my living room while getting rid of the mold (I had a few short Mexicans wearing spacesuits running around for about a week - I'm sorry but I couldn't stop laughing).

You could make a documentary called 2012:A Mold Odyssey.

Sorry Dave, but I'm afraid I can't do that.

I wanted to say thank you to everyone that's contacted me and contributed so far. I'm at the half-way point for the down payment that will get me the surgery I need. Thank you. Sincerely. 

If you would like to help, please post the link to my campaign on your social media such as facebook or twitter. The referral traffic keeps me at a higher ranking, which means more people see my page. The more visits, the more donations I get. I went from page 54 to page 6 in just three days. 

Thank you.
