The most significant symptom of mold exposure is a persistent cough. Mold inflames the respiratory tract and weakens the immune system. People exposed can get frequent cases of bronchitis or other respiratory ailments.

Symptoms can include rashes, headaches, loss of memory, sneezing, difficulty breathing, an itchy feeling. These can progress and become more serious if not dealt with. If she goes out and feels fine, but comes back home and her symptoms return it would be worth investigating!
