Alright, so I'm sorry if this doesnt fit here because it doesnt really relate to mushroom growing but I'm a little freaked out, and from previous inquiries I've made here regarding mold and cakes you guys seem to know whats up with fungus. I'd really appreciate your help.

I went hiking a week ago--->some clothes got wet---->I put them in a zip lock bag. Today I found the bag in my pack and looked at the clothes and they seemed free and clear of mold. So I opened it up and pulled out a shirt to put it in the washing machine and the smell hit me right the fuck in the face. Mildew...like hardcore.  I uncurled the shirt and there were bright pink pinpoint spots of mold all over the inside of it. I threw the shirt in the laundry machine and ran upstairs holding my breath.  I'm afraid to go back down. Anyone have an idea of how bad I just fucked up?

In an apartment I used to live in there was pink mold on the walls at places, you should be fine. I'm no expert though interested to see what others say.

Yeah I've been reading about pink colored molds and all the articles say its somewhat dangerous, but not immediately life threatening. But they were talking about it growing on tile grout and stuff. This was an air tight bag that i opened about a foot and a half from my face. And the smell was really strong so I definitely inhaled some spores (a bunch from the strength of the smell :sad:)

...I don't wanna die yet...:tongue:

...but seriously :sad:

Nasty dude. Bad hygiene FTL.
I'd keep an eye out for any symptoms like sort of breath, etc, etc.

Pain is temporary. It may last for a minute or an hour or a day or even a year but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it will last forever.

If you still have the bag and really are worried, go find a doctor or toxicologist and explain what happened, and give them the bag in the hopes they can characterize what you inhaled.  I don't know what they would really do, but I bet they could help more than we could. 

Sending good vibes your way brother
