I have been ill for over three months now.

It started when I lived in a basement appartment the flat upstairs had a leak and it slowly seseepedhrough the ceiling of our bedroom. We reported it to our landlord whom did nothing really until the damp patch grew 3 meters either way. To cut a long story short, after eventually the leak was treated and a dehumidifier was hired the whole family (my partner, my 3 year old and i) came down with sinusitus. It got to the point where I couldn't even go into the house and was homeless for a month (living at partners parents) until we could find somewhere else to live.

I have sufffered from pressure all over my head and face. My eye lids are swollen and face from time to time. I feel as if someone had punched my nose. Swollen glands and eye infections. Panic attack and feeling anxious. 2 trips to a&e and weekly visits to the doctors (i have seen 4 different doctors). I am on my fourth lot of antibiotics. Have started to feel faint and dizzy. I go to bed early on a night, this is the longest I have stayed up for a long time. Now my doctor says I have fluid in my ear which is making me feel sick. I am now waiting to see a specialist at the hospital.


All this is driving me mad. I am normally a very fit and strong person I don't understand how I have become such a wreck and be so weak. I get really depressed and wonder whether I have a tumour or something. I cry at the least little upset.
