the feedback on that prior thread looked helpful to me
something unusual about
the pattern of toxins - the single high toxin reading
if it were me - and i was convinced this was an issue ( an
open question in my mind as mycotoxin presence in urine doesn't seem to be a highly reliable indicator of mycotoxin illness - as far as we can determine from results and accounts on this forum - as most results we have seen seem to come back with several elevated toxins).
but if i were convinced - or at least wanted to remove it as an potential source - i think i would look at things i consumed - or was exposed to in other ways - rather than the building - as as WBF mentioned - a single species would be unusual in a water damaged building - but may be more common for instance in a foodstuff
so i would look into
- foods - anything made of dried vegetable matter that has been stored - eg grains ( esp corn and wheat), nuts, pulses, flours etc etc or products made from them - also snacks - chocolate - etc
- supplements - many of which may come from corn starch or similar as a base material
- teas, coffee - etc
due to the unusual pattern - it makes sense to look at less common sources - other than water damage to buildings - so think of anything unusual that you do - or consume - or are exposed to
