Your post resonated with me on several levels. I went through a bout of pneumonia last January, and found it a humbling experience. When walking down the hall to the bathroom leaves one winded, something is definitely Very Wrong. Fortunately, with timely diagnosis and double antibiotics, I got better in about two weeks.
I'm currently helping my sweetie as he sorts through the decades of stuff at his parents' house, which he has inherited. This often involves dust, mildew, etc. We've found that a portable, room-size HEPA filter makes a *huge* difference in keeping the allergens down and our breathing regular. I get that money is tight, but if you can beg, borrow, or rent one, please do. I think you'll find it makes a lot of difference, and can help you toward the goals of clearing your space *and* staying healthy.
