What are mold symptoms? HELP!!!!?

My bathroom had alot of white and black mold under the tiles and behind the walls after everything was torn out to remodel. the leak came from the bathtub. it was leaking for about 3-4 years. I cough alot, cannot clear my throat, alot of mucose, lose my voice alot, sometimes have trouble breathing, extremely fatigued, sleepy all the time. My 2 kids cough alot to. The bathroom is fixed now but i still have these symptoms. How long does it take for the symptoms to go away.

If this sounds like mold symptoms, what is a name of medication a doctor can give me to help. I saw it online that there is medication but i forgot to write it down.

    Yup those irritation are cause by inhaling spore from mold

    he most commonly reported symptoms of short term Mold exposure:

    Sneezing

    Itching Skin

    Redness and skin irritation

    Watery Eyes

    Itching Eyes

    If you have problem breathing and constant fatigue, you must have expose to the mold for a long period of time

    However after the mold are clean you should be ok soon. Asking a doctor for allergy medication will help

    yes toxic mold does cause severe headaches, depending on the amount of the exposure its different for everyone how long the symptoms last. mold in basement is 100% toxic

    the toxic spores are probably all over your house. you should move or the meds wont work for you. there is anti fungal meds like lamisil pills and anti fungal nasal inhalers. cholestyramine

    the mold can be a like a cancer and hopefully it doesnt go to your lungs or your brain check the internet for the meds
