Question from sonja
i live in a co-op in yonkers new york. how do i or who do i contact to test my water? the woman below me has a washer and we are not supposed to. the management knows i have been sick and really hasn’t d,one anything. i am concerned that there is back up in the water. sometimes when i shower my body tingles. it freaks me out!! I also get exttremely dizzy, nautious,s and tired. I did three mold tests in my bedroom and it was positive for black mold. the management office and board president didn’t care even though i wanted them to see. The building inspector came out and didn’t see mold in my house but said that it could be in walls. but how do i test for that and other odorless fumes that this washer can be causing.
any help thank you!

It sounds like you have several problems here:
I’m not sure that all of these problems are due to the illegal washer in the unit below.
I would start with a professional mold inspector, if you’ve tested your bedroom and it is positive for black mold. You need professional mold remediation and your manager needs to pay attention to this.
