I have heard of a disease that is contracted by inhaling the dust from rat droppings, but I can't find any information on it. Can anyone help? My daughter (6 yrs old) was exposed to this last weekend and is gradually getting sicker and sicker. The docs here think I've lost my mind, but I know there is a disease caused by inhaling the dust from rat droppings, it's rare and uncommon, but it does exist. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.
