I moved into 35 Clinton St. 08-24-08 in hope of a better life through education. Little did I know that my birthday move was turning into a death day from toxic mold exposure. My health continually degraded from that time till now. I was exposed to WEAPONS grade toxins & yeasts that were of the same type many terrorist groups use in combat.

Here is the rest of this Steven King nightmare reality:


On Friday, September 4th at approximately 7am while taking a shower at my apartment on 35 Clinton Street, Plattsburgh, NY 12901, I noticed some black mold seeping from breaches where the cheap dollar store caulk eroded. Please watch the video, as it shows clearly what I am talking about.

This explains why over the past year my health has degraded considerably. I have had a wasting away of the gums, frequent mouth infections that have not responded to antibiotics (which now makes sense; any layman knows that a fungal, or spore infection laughs at antibiotics); as is shown with the enclosed photographs contained in this site.

I took samples in order to prove I was not some nut who spent too much time watching CSI, ER, etc. After being around this mold longer than usual; in order to take the samples, I felt very weak and sick. I made my way down to CVPH Medical Center in Plattsburgh, NY (518-561-2000) in or around 4 pm. I felt so weak, I got lost and felt delirious. As I made my way to the entrance with the mold samples, CD evidence in hand, I passed out at the front desk, only to awaken briefly to a cop jabbing his finger in my eye three times and some jerk grating her ring laden knuckles on my chest like she was trying to hurt me. I still have marks on my chest.

When I came too, I begged over eight times in a two hour period for water, not to mention to call my aunt who was worried sick about me. Over two plus hours of condescending and insensitive clowns promising me water and a phone call, only to wait over two hours till someone actually came through on the promise, and only when I said I was leaving unless they gave me water and a phone call. Criminals get a phone call faster than that, I am sure; let alone water for God's sake. Before I was fed, I made it clear that due to my oral surgery I needed to floss, brush and rinse the food out of my infected socket sue to the infection. Once again I was lied to about obtaining this request and my mouth flared up.

I told my situation to numerous people (some woman by the name of Tera, I believe), and a quack by the name of Paul G. Gill, JR. M.D. None of these buffoons took into account my rotting gums, video evidence case notes from my dentists, or the fact that I had black mold in a zip lock bag. His only intent was to have me listed Mental Hygiene, milk Medicaid with expensive cat scans, EKG's, ask me 10 times if I was drinking booze, crazy, etc. I was harassed over 10 times for such money milking tests, to which I refused completely and demanded they examine the black mold and watch the video evidence so that they could get me on anti-fungal/spore medications like any doctor worth their salt would have done.
Instead I was patronized, treated like a dog, and basically laughed at; when all they had to do was watch the video and send the samples to a lab to be tested. Sounds simple enough, but to these group of ignoramuses, I realized I was wasting my breath.


They expected me to stay there till Monday, so they could milk $2,000 + a day babysitting me till the blood tests came back. All of this without giving me the medications I told them I was on for the oral surgery I had done due to the infection in my mouth that they refused to acknowledge.
Having enough of these quacks, I pulled the IV out and demanded to be set free from this hell sorry excuse for a hospital. To that, Dr. Gill wrote on my report that I was crazy? Excuse me, but when you come in with black mold samples, video evidence of black mold, and a mouth rotting like a corpse, you would expect they try to fix that rather than send you to the funny farm.

I live at 35 Clinton Street, Apartment 10, Plattsburgh, NY where I was a 8 times Dean's List National Honors, Lambda Pi Eta student before this sickness has caused me to drop from my studies. I am not crazy. Please help me prove it by having these samples tested so I can prove CPVH/ Paul Gill is the one who is ignorant, incompetent and delusional.

I am requesting complaints be filed with Dr. Gill, Property Management of Plattsburgh to the highest level possible. The Health Department needs to close 35 Clinton Street apartments down till this place is no longer a death camp breeding ground for black mold.


I am also passing this evidence over to Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, etc. Please forward this matter to the highest level. Enclosed are some of my credentials which hopefully add merit to my story. Could you please provide me with a list of medical lawyers in the Clinton County area? Once the blood tests come back positive for black mold I plan on suing them for their negligence, harassment, defamation, and abuse.

Peter Jason Helfrich

Pete..
Did you have the Health Department go an inspect the apartment. If your looking to create a case I think your going to want to have documentation from the Health Department. In addition to this, here in Plattsburgh, probably unlike where you are from we have a "good old boy network" meaning they'll cover up what they can. I would suggest having the health department go in, and then if you plan to contact attorneys etc. contact ones that are outside our area.  
Good luck. Hope you are feeling better.

THIS IS A HEADS UP TO ANYONE IN MY SITUATION:

IF YOU THINK THERE IS BLACK MOLD BEHIND YOUR SHOWER, DO NOT TRY TO BE A TOUGH GUY & RIP THE SHOWER APART, YOU ARE ONLY GOING TO KILL YOUR BODY & DESTROY THE VIABLE AIR SAMPLES WHICH WILL MAKE THE INSURANCE COMPANY HAPPY.

REPEAT = YOU WILL VOID THE EVIDENCE... THIS WILL MAKE YOUR CASE HARDER TO PROVE....

THIS WILL GIVE THE DEFENSE A CHINK IN YOUR ARMOR...


I WAS IGNORANT TO THIS FACT..... NO ONE WOULD LISTEN TO ME & I FELT LIKE I HAD TO CRACK THE CASE ON MY OWN..... I MADE A HUGE ERROR BY OPENING UP THE SHOWER & VOIDING THE AIR SPORE COUNT..

DO NOT REPEAT MY MISTAKE FOR GOD'S SAKE!!
Tampering with evidence is a felony... Do not tamper with the room please.

Hi Rick,


I'm not contesting that you are a good person. I know your a good person.


This has gone beyond the two of us. 35 Clinton St., Apt. #10 is in laymans terms a crime scene. 


Any tampering with that appartment, in any way from here till the end of the month will be considered "tampering with evidence" which is s felony.


There are three independent testing companies who will be testing the mold samples from that apartment.


Under no circumstances should you, or anyone for that matter clean up, or tamper with the apartment.


That could get anyone 7-10 years in jail and up to $250,000 fine.


Please just lay back and let God sort this out. All I'm after is my health, my gums, and my teeth back. Anything else is for the lawyers to compensate.


Regards,


Pete Helfrich

Ah ah Ah ah

I bet you think I'm doing this all for my health
I should've looked again then at somebody else
Feelin' like I've done way more than wrong
Feelin' like I'm livin' inside of this song
Feelin' like I'm just too tired to care
Feelin' like I've done more than my share
Could've been the way that I carried on
Like a broken record for so long"

Stages of Mycotoxicosis. The following is an article by Dr. William Croft

Stages of Mycotoxicosis
Our official diagnosis is mycotoxicosis. The following is an article by Dr. William Croft (website http://www.edgi.org/).

Stages of Mycotoxicosis: For Inhalation of Mycotoxin

The three Stages (1-3) ranging from lower to higher severity of poisoning were modified according to exposure via the air as opposed to ingestion already established (Forgacs et al., 1962; Joffe, 1971). A separate Stage of convalescence occurs when a patient is completely removed from the contaminated premises and the source of mycotoxin or mold spores.

Stage 1: The primary changes are in the brain, respiratory and immune systems, mucus membranes and gastrointestinal tract. Signs and symptoms may include burning sensation in the mouth, tongue, throat, palate, esophagus, and stomach, which is a result of the action of the toxin on the mucous membranes and skin in the exposed areas. Moist areas of the body armpits, under breasts, belt line and groin are more sensitive or first affected. Patients may report burning within the eyes, ears and nose. Patients also reported that their tongues felt swollen and stiff. Mucosa of the oral cavity may be hyperemic. Mild gingivitis, stomatitis, glositis, and esophagitis developed. Inflammation, in addition to gastric and (small and large) intestinal mucosal, resulted in vomiting, diarrhea and abdominal pain. Excessive salivation, headache, dizziness, weakness, fatigue and tachycardia were also present.

There may be fever and sweating. The respiratory system develops burning sensations and congestion. Severe exposure to mycotoxin within the lungs may lead to congestion, edema and failure, due to caustic action. Body temperature remains normal and controllable by the patient. The poisoning appears and disappears relatively quickly in this Stage with the exception of, lungs and central nervous system. Initially (Stage 1), the patient’s symptoms are very uncomfortable or painful. As the poisoning continues and the patient progress toward Stage 2, he or she becomes accustomed to the presence of the mycotoxin and a quiescent period follows due to lack of nerve sensation. Depending on exposure levels, the first Stage may last from 3 - 9 days. In scoring the 50 signs and symptoms listed in Tables-1 and 2, an average score range of 20-45 represents Stage 1.

Stage 2: This Stage is often called the latent Stage or incubation period because the patient feels apprehensive, but is capable of normal activity in the beginning of this Stage. Every organ of the body is affected by degeneration and necrosis with continued exposure. The primary target organs for an individual become evident over time, due to biological variation. These are disturbances in the central and autonomic nervous systems resulting in headaches, mental depression, loss of short-term memory, loss of problem-solving ability, various neuropsychiatric manifestations, meningism, severe malaise and fatigue, narcolepsy, loss of temperature control, hyperesthesia or numbness of body areas, and cerebellar dysfunction including hypotonia, attitude and gait, dysmetria, asthenia, vertigo, disturbances of speech, and loss of balance (Best, 1961). Spinal cord degeneration may also be observed in gait and reflex abnormalities, such as the ability to drive vehicles, ride bicycles or pass sobriety tests (inability to tolerate ethyl alcohol). Attention deficient disorder may be observed in children. Various systems may include: Eyes: visual disturbances, floating objects, light sensitive, lack of tears, burning and itching. Ears: burning, itching, and loss of hearing. Immune and hematopoietic: progressive loss of white and red cells including a decrease of platelets and hemoglobin, and high susceptibility to bacterial, mycotic and viral infections, debilitating chemical and allergies. Gastrointestinal: metallic taste in mouth, tooth loss, gum problems, stomatitis, sores in gums and throat, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or constipation, excessive flatulence, abdominal distention, hepatitis, pancreatitis, and diabetes mellitus. Respiratory : burning and bleeding from nasal membranes, respiratory difficulty, asthma, extreme susceptibility to cold, flu and pneumonia. Skin: thinning of hair on head, burning on face, rashes, irritation, and edema. Renal: proteinuria, possible hematuria. Reproductive: irregular ovarian cycles, increased menstrual flow, fibroid growths in uterus, cystic development in mammary glands, and tumors of mammary and prostate glands. Musculoskeletal : somatitis, muscle weakness, spasms, cramps, joint pain, enlargement of joints in hand, and clubbing of fingers. Cardiovascular: chest pain, palpitations, ruptures of atrial walls, myocardial infection and aneurysm of arteries.

The skin and mucous membranes may be icteric, pupils dilated, the pulse soft and labile, and blood pressure may decrease or increase. The body temperature does not exceed 38 degree C and the patient may be afebrile, or chilled. Visible hemorrhagic spots may appear on the skin. Thoughts of suicide may be prominent in the person’s mind at this time or anytime in Stage 2. Human bonding is very important for survival.

Degeneration and hemorrhages of the vessels marks the transition from the second to the third Stage of the disease and may not be consistently observed. The degeneration of the vital organs including serious respiratory insufficiency or asthma and CNS degeneration will take the patient into Stage three along with development of necrotic angina. If exposure continues, depending on exposure levels, Stage 2 may continue from weeks to months or even years until the symptoms of the third Stage develop. Evaluating the 50 signs and symptoms (Table-1 and 2) by assigning a score (0-least intense to 5-most intense or severe) to each symptom, we have determined that an average score range of 45-180 represents Stage 2.

Stage 3: Severe degeneration of the vital organs. The transition from the second to the third Stage is sudden. In this Stage, the patient’s resistance is already low, and violent severe symptoms are present, especially under the influence of stress, or associated with physical exertion and fatigue. The first visible sign of this Stage may be lung, brain or heart failure (heart attack), with or without the appearance of petechial hemorrhage on the skin of the trunk, the axillary and inguinal areas, the lateral surfaces of the arms and thighs, the face and head, and in serious Cases, the chest. The petechial hemorrhages vary from a few millimeters to a few centimeters in diameter. There is increased capillary fragility and any slight trauma may cause the hemorrhages to increase in size.

Aneurysms of the brain or aorta may be observed by angiography. Hemorrhages may also be found on the mucous membranes of the mouth and tongue, and on the soft palate and tonsils. There may be severe interstitial thickening or scarring of the lungs, or respiratory failure. Nasal, gastric and intestinal hemorrhages and hemorrhagic diathesis may occur. Necrotic angina begins in the form of catarrhal symptoms and necrotic changes soon appear in the mouth, throat, and esophagus with difficulty and pain on swallowing. Severe degeneration of the skin on the face, eyelids, and loss of lashes is also often present.

Necrotic lesions may extend to the uvula, gums, buccal mucosa, larynx, vocal cords, lungs, stomach, and intestines and other internal organs such as the liver and kidneys and are usually contaminated with a variety of avirulent bacteria. Bacteria infection causes an unpleasant odor from the mouth due to the enzymatic activity of bacteria on proteins. Areas of necrosis may also appear on the lips and on the skin of the fingers, nose, jaws, and eyes. Regional lymph nodes are frequently enlarged. Esophageal lesions may occur and involvement of the epiglottis may cause laryngeal edema and aphonia (loss of voice). Death may occur by strangulation.

Patients may suffer an acute parenchymatous hepatitis accompanied by jaundice. Bronchopneumonia, pulmonary hemorrhages, and lung abscesses are frequent complications. Tumors may develop of various organs, including skin, urinary bladder, brain, mammary gland, bone, immune, liver, prostate, possibly resulting in death. The most common cause of death is brain failure due to both direct effects of the mycotoxin on the central nervous system and indirect effects due to respiratory failure or lack of oxygen to the brain caused by the severe caustic inflammation (fibrinous exudation) reaction with the lung tissue, rendering it non-functional. Again, using the scoring system represented in Tables-1 and 2, an average score of greater or equal 180 represents Stage 3.

Stage of Convalescence: The course and duration of this Stage 3 depends on the intensity of the poisoning and complete removal of the patient from the premises or source of mycotoxin. Therefore, the duration of the recovery period is variable. There is considerable cellular necrosis and scarring to all major organs of the body in which cells will not regenerate, including the brain, spinal cord, eyes, lung, heart, liver, pancreas, kidney, adrenal, and blood vessels. If the disease is diagnosed during the first Stage, hospitalization is usually unnecessary, but allergies and asthma should be monitored closely. If the disease is diagnosed during the second Stage and even at the transition from the second to third Stages, early hospitalization may preserve the patient’s life. If however, the disease is only detected during the third Stage, death cannot be prevented in most Cases.
