I've started the countdown a few times before it got in the high toxicity range that made it apparent he was retaliating to it, only ever reached a few minutes before I reset the timer because the pollution started again; now it doesn't look like it's going to be stopping at all (maybe if he reads this & gets it through his head to knock it off, but that's highly unlikely given this has been an ongoing battle with him for almost a year now), so on goes the respirator & I'll start tracking it again later if he has stopped by the time I take it off again. Currently I not only have the respirator on, but also have the air purifier on (which wasn't enough on it's own) & a window open to get some (hopefully) fresh air in here (despite how cold it is outside, which means the temperature in my unit is going to drop to a peek low I'll have to add to the logs with a picture.
If I end up getting sent to bed ill again from his pollution (which I'm not far off from right now) without getting the hour first, I'll just leave it up again while I sleep; I did this last night because the pollution got strong enough to effect my bedroom while I was trying to sleep; he retaliated by making it extremely strong, then I woke up with a sore throat that felt like it was going to tear apart when I attempted to talk, so I had no voice for several hours in the morning (that caused me to cancel my plans of going to a movie with my mother). If he does that again, I'll just leave it up until midnight again. I'm half-expecting that even if he knows I'll leave it up all day again in response to a repeat of what he did last night, he'll still do it again since none of this really gets through to him regardless of how many times I say it. I can't really use the respirator while sleeping if I'm laying down, but perhaps I can use it while sleeping in the recliner.
Health problems from indoor pollution today:
- Blurry Vision
- Chest Pains
- Coughing
- Dizziness
- Headaches
- Irritated Eyes
- Loss of Voice
- Migraines
- Nausea
- Ringing Ears
- Sore Throat
- Trouble Breathing
UPDATE: I decided last night that an hour of no pollution might be a little steep, so I decided a half-hour should be good enough. I did start smelling that pollution in my bed again after I went to bed & didn't particularly want to take a chance on what happened last night, so I grabbed my respirator & a blanket, closed the blinds in my living room & attempted to sleep on the recliner. Something appears to be wrong with my respirator, not allowing me to wear it for long periods of time, so I may have to replace the face mask for it, which means more expenses to go after him with if we take him to court. Because the respirator is having problems, I decided to go back to bed & take the tower air purifier from my living room into my bedroom, to be used on top of the bedroom air purifier & the scented candle burning.
When I woke up around 12:20 PM, my throat was extremely sore again, my voice nearly gone (it was completely gone yesterday) and I haven't been able to stop coughing since I woke up. Within 20 minutes of hacking on this pollution (after waking up), I had a splitting migraine again (which is what usually sends me to bed ill, if not extreme nausea or just lack of energy). I was using my space heater last night, so I decided not to use the pollution in the bedroom to decide whether I was going to leave the page up until midnight again. I was able to smell pollution in my home office, but it wasn't particularly strong, so I decided that I won't be taking it down immediately, but if the owner of E26 can give me a half-hour of no pollution, I will take it down after that time. In the mean time if it gets strong, I'll start seeing if I can find any more links to add to that list.
Right now I have my air purifier in my home office running, as well as a window open when I started using my computer. It was 66° F when I woke up according to my thermostat, which means with the window open, it will likely drop to that point where I include photos to prove peek low/high temperatures in my unit due to not being able to use central air because of the pollution coming from E26.
UPDATE: Looks like he still can't give me more than a few minutes of no pollution, so that page probably will be up all day again, especially if I get sent to bed ill again from it. I honestly believe it's going to be up until the day I move at this rate...
UPDATE: I ended up getting sent to bed ill again at about 6:15 PM, not so much for a migraine this time, but due to lack of energy from dealing with the problem (probably a combination of stress & energy lost coughing on the crap coming from next door). When I woke up. my throat was still extremely sore, but I had gained back my voice again (possibly the second air purifier in my bedroom while I'm sleeping taken from my living room). Once I got back in the home office, I couldn't smell the pollution anymore, so decided to take down that page for the time being. At this point I don't see any point in littering these logs with mention of that page over & over & over again, so I'll just republish it quietly when the pollution gets strong enough for it to go up again & they'll have to considering knocking it off for at least a half-hour before it's going to be taken down again. I chose not to post this update until the pollution started up again seeing as I think he might be using these logs against me & was half-expecting it to start up again directly after I posted it.
UPDATE: The pollution from E26 got particularly strong again somewhere around 10 PM again. It started picking back up even before I posted the last update, but now it's strong enough to definitely cause health problems. I'll likely be turning the stream of health problems on again later. As for other methods regarding this problem, well those were put back into effect a while again will be staying in effect until he's proven he's going to knock it off. At this point the pollution level is high enough that I'm going to attempt to use my respirator again; it still works for short periods, but until I deal with that smell that's coming from it (inside of it), I won't be able to use it for long periods (will likely need to replace it, I can get one at Home Depot if needed).
