5. Unintentional weight loss
Unintentional weight loss may seem like a relatively out-of-place symptom when we’re discussing mold. That being said, this is actually due to the aspergillomas that we described above. When the fungus balls start to gather up inside the air cavities of the patient’s lungs a wide variety of symptoms will manifest.
One of these includes rapid weight loss. It’s worth noting that some pulmonary conditions such as tuberculosis already cause weight loss, but the presence of the aspergillus fungus balls will make this process happen far faster.
If you have tuberculosis or other lung conditions that lead to the loss of weight but notice a steep increase in the speed then you should get yourself checked at the nearest hospital so you can get yourself checked and verify whether or not you’ve been exposed to aspergillus.
