My daughter is 28yr her son is 6yr and her daughter is 8yr. The 8yr old was admitted to the hospital 4 days ago for spinal maningitis found out it was the viral not the bacterical kind. Now all three of them are at the hosp. right now recently some walls  were openned in the building she lives in. A complaint was made to the health department about mold. This was a yr ago. However this we  just found out, and my daughter moved in there months now. not yrs ago they have been sick ever since. My granddaugher came home yesterday now shes back up at hospital er. with my daughter and her son as well. The fella that lives below her is also in the hospital. Do you have any suggestions my daughter cant make another move either. I was told by the local health dept. it has to be in writing that this illness is from mold before they will even test the building? What do you think symptoms are headache, vomiting, dizzy, cant straighten up, cant keep anything down. fever all symptoms on each are the same?
Hi, Thank you for posting your query. Based on the description, the symptoms are suggestive of viral meningitis. So, I agree with the doctors observations and diagnosis. However, the building is unlikely to be the source of the virus. The virus most often is in the environment, and can affect several people in the locality. In any case, it needs to be investigated by the Health authorities, as several members in one building are affected. I hope it helps. Please get back if you require any additional information. Best wishes, Chat Doctor. Ly/
