    Cough Due to Cleaning a Moldy Dust Apart.
    I have a friend that is a really bad pack rat. I cleaned his place of six years of news papers and other trash the last few days. I am now coughing all the time. Is there something I should do to purge my system or should I see a doctor immediately. I usually have allergies but I feel like there is a brick on my chest. Thanks you for any advise you can give. :eek:

    If you are having a hard time breathing you should most definitely see a doctor. It may or may not have anything to do with cleaning the apartment. I don't know where you live, but in my area of the world there is a terrible upper respiratory virus going around right now that has no other symptoms except for the terrible cough that is most prominent in the morning and middle of the night.

    Now, you say you have a feeling of a brick on your chest, this is a symptom that really should be checked out almost immediately. You may have swollen bronchial tubes that are cutting off your airway.
