I assume you are referring to the dreaded Black Mold that was the subject of a 20/20 episode a while back. Not familiar with it but I'm sure the you can find information by putting "black mold" into a Google search.

As for your questions, you're asking for second opinions and consultation on something that needs to be seen. You're doing the right thing and following the right course. Use the Internet to research your suspicions and if you find anything that you feel might be of significance print it out and take it with you to the doctor on your next appointment.

Above all, try not to panic.

Good luck!!
