[QUOTE="Carrie, post: 41356, member: 361"] Hi JC, Inhalation of particulate matter from moldy hay can cause something called allergic alveolitis (Farmers Lung). Often this presents with flu-like symptoms. (shortness of breath, fever/chills, tight feeling in chest, productive cough etc.) This is usually treated with steriods and avoidancce measures so dd's advice is sound - invest in a good dust mask. Check in with your doc as this can sometimes progress to pulmonary fibrosis and you sure as heck don't want to go down that road. Hope this helps. Carrie [/QUOTE]
