It has been very humid and rainy here in Texas. In the last few days I have developed nausea and perspiring in my face. ..Feeling clammy. Along with sneezing, mucous drainage, and coughing, Could these be reactions to excessive mold in the outdoors which I am highly allergic to?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi
Thanks for posting on HCM
The symptoms you describe could be caused by cold allergy or a respiratory infection.Infectious causes are mostly viral and will need only symptomatic treatment.Bacteria infections are also possible and will need antibiotics.I will suggest you try the following:
-Avoid cold and remain well insulated
-Room air humidifier
-Take an anti-histamine like benadryl
-A mucolytic like carbosysteine
-Take enough fluids
-Regular nasal cleaning/blowing
If symptoms persist, you see the Doctor to investigate for a bacterial origin and judge need for antibiotics.
Hope this will help
Regards
