Indoor pollution continues to be a problem again today in Building E of the South 67 Condos, however at least it's staying in a tolerable level of toxicity.  The pollution first became noticeable as I was finishing up with my disability case manager today around 9:55 AM.  I mentioned to him that the pollution was starting back up again when I first smelled it, he didn't say anything about not being able to smell it this time, so I expect he could where normally he couldn't.

Health problems from indoor pollution today:
  • Blurry Vision
  • Chest Pains
  • Coughing
  • Dizziness
  • Headaches
  • Heat Flashes
  • Irritated Eyes
  • Migraines
  • Nausea
  • Ringing Ear
  • Sore Throat
UPDATE:  When I got back from working on the house, it was no surprise that the pollution was still happening.  What was surprising was that it was a lower toxicity level in my unit than it was in the public hallways.  I suppose that means the person causing it could be taking it outside, but we'll see if that lasts.  It stayed low until my father left after checking his email & so far hasn't gotten too much stronger after he left.  Today has been one of the first days this pollution has been tolerable in a long time & I hope this will be a breaking point to the problem.

UPDATE:  It appears that it's not a breaking point, seeing as the pollution from E26 has gotten particularly strong on a few occasions since 10:30 PM, so it looks like I need to make it a point to get that thing on my door every night.

UPDATE:  At 11:27 PM, I decided I needed to open a couple of windows, in hopes of getting some fresh air in my unit & also to get some cool air into it (even though the indoor temp in my unit is already lower than where I keep it) to help with the heat flashes I'm getting from heavy coughing on the pollution.

UPDATE:  The pollution from E26 has gotten EXTREMELY strong now, a chemical smell that started entering my unit from the kitchen/dining room, & now seems to be spreading throughout my unit; this smell is strong enough, I'm considering contacting Hazmat.

Considering this has turned into such a problem & I expect the cause being retaliation, let's make it a point so that those following these logs knows what the statement says:
To Whom It May Concern,

    At this point I am attempting to move out because of the constant pollution coming from E26 & hostility from a few others in the building.  We have a house recently purchased we are attempting to fix up that is probably going to take a few months to finish repairs, however the high levels of pollution coming from E26 is making me too ill to go work on the house (either in the form of illness caused by the pollution or lack of sleep from being unable to stop coughing long enough to fall asleep), which means it's going to take longer to move out.

    On another matter, I'm being told that if I don't help with getting the house ready for the move, the house will be sold & I won't be moving.  In both of the cases above, the pollution is preventing me from working on the house, which means it's going to take longer to complete & the chance of me moving could fall through entirely.  On another note, if this unit cannot be sold because of the pollution from other units (or any other reason), even if I have already moved, I'll be moving back (against my will) & the house will be sold instead (selling this unit is imperative to paying off the house, otherwise the house will need to be sold instead).  I know out of everybody in the building, E26 wants me out the most, but his actions & constant pollution is going to end up making me stay rather than moving when the house is finished.  Charles has been notified about this already, but seems he chose to ignore the text I sent him entirely, so while I expect Charles is looking forward to me being out also, he's also going to get his hopes dashed, as well as everybody else in the building that also wants me out, because E26 couldn't keep their dirty habit low enough until I could move out.
This is on my door right now & will be put up every night until I move if the pollution doesn't at least stay in a tolerable level.  Should it be taken down, I'll put it up one more time, before I publish the notice online & put a URL to the notice in my window, where the bugger causing the problem won't be able to get to it.  Currently it's only being put up at night, but that may change, particularly if the asshole does end up fucking up my chances of moving out.

UPDATE:  Shortly before midnight, I ended up going to bed ill due to extreme dizziness caused by the chemical smell coming from E26.  If I don't end up calling Hazmat tonight, it'll probably be the paramedics (and I have a doctor appointment tomorrow that I'll end up missing as a result of it, but I'm sure they'll accept the excuse if I get hospitalized over it).
