Thyroid problems and Toxic Mold

Here's something that I found quite interesting.
Not only am I having problems with thyroid but my boyfriend just had a follicular mass on his thyroid and they removed half of his thyroid glad. Here's the thing. We moved out of an apt. a year ago that had a severe mold problem. In fact we didn't even move any of our furniture with us because we thought it was contaminated with mold. I was talking to my mother recently and she mentioned that she heard about a family that had severe reactions to the mold in their house much like the symtoms for thyroid conditions. I think there's a link to the problems we are having, because how could we both start having thyroid problems at the same time. I may have to contact an attourney.
The information about mold came from www.mold-help.org/ Maybe you guys can take a look at it and see what you think.
Sorry so long.

Dr.s are still trying to find the causes of A.I. diseases, I hope they accomplish this soon!
