2. A trial with medication for the above conditions should be taken. Tests for mold allergy should be done. Damp areas in the house should be bleached.
3. Rare causes include auto-immune disorders, neurological disorders, heavy metal poisoning and so on. These will require a detailed evaluation by a physician.
