About this test and how it can help you

Aspergillus mold can often be found on dead leaves, compost piles and other decaying vegetable matter, stored grain, and even foods and spices. The mold spores may be carried indoors on shoes and clothing and can grow on carpeting.

Signs and symptoms depend on which organs are affected, but in general, invasive aspergillosis can cause:

  • Fever and chills
  • A cough that brings up blood (hemoptysis)
  • Shortness of breath
  • Chest or joint pain
  • Headaches or eye symptoms
  • Skin lesions

Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (called ABPA for short) is a problem in the lungs that is not very common. It is caused by a severe allergic reaction after being exposed to a type of fungus called Aspergillus. ABPA can be a rare cause of poorly controlled asthma, occurring in less than 1% of asthma patients.
