I'm going to keep the reason I'm asking very short not to bore anyone. I've had problems with health while at work for about the last 4 years. When I spent longer than 30 mins in my office building I would get a painful lungs, chest/ribs , sore throat, headaches and feel rubbish all the time including evenings. I eventually persuaded my Manager to permanently move me to a different building, and was pretty much ok. Unfortunately they closed those 2 buildings, and we've moved to another one, and I'm now getting the same issues, tho not quite as bad as I used to.
I'm going to ask for some air quality tests to be done, but I was wondering if there is any kind of air quality meter that I could buy or rent that would show if there's high concentrations of dust or chemicals e.g. formaldehyde? I've been told in the past I have a formaldehyde allergy and definitely get a problem with new carpets. I'm also allergic to cats, dogs and mould. I'm going to get a mould spore agar test to see if that might be the cause, but I don't think it is cos I tend to know when mould has affected me.
So anybody know of any monitors or meters that I can get that could help determine the cause? Could it be due to photocopiers?
They are upgrading the air con in Jan, so I'm hoping that helps.
