		<description>Thanks Jane, as part of the results of your test, they should have came back with how many parts per million (PPM) of Hydrogen Sulfide was detected.  Its definitely without a doubt toxic.   Use the below chart to help you determine your level of Hydrogen Sulfide.

Symptoms at Various Concentrations
 
	0.0047 ppm is the recognition threshold, the concentration at which 50% of humans can detect the characteristic odor of
hydrogen sulfide,normally described as resembling &quot;a rotten egg&quot;. (Well below Gas Badge detection level.)

	 10-20 ppm is the borderline concentration for eye irritation. (Above the Gas Badge detection level.)

	 50-100 ppm leads to eye damage.

 	At 150-250 ppm the olfactory nerve is paralyzed after a few inhalations, and the sense of smell disappears, often together
with awareness of danger

	 320-530 ppm leads to pulmonary edema with the possibility of death.

	 530-1000 ppm causes strong stimulation of the central nervous system and rapid breathing, leading to loss of breathing;

	 800 ppm is the lethal concentration for 50% of humans for 5 minutes exposure (LC50).

	 1000 ppm &gt; cause immediate collapse with loss of breathing, even after inhalation of a single breath.

	Note the huge difference between smell (.0047 ppm) and irritation (10-20 ppm) etc

		<description>Thanks for your website. 
Very informative.  I noticed that you write that Hydrogen Sulfide is one of the toxins released from &quot;toxic dry wall&quot;.
My dry wall has been tested at an independent lab and the results were positive for: 
hydrogen sulfide, carbonyl sulfide, and methyl mercaptan
Can you please tell me, in your opinion, would this mean that this dry wall is &quot;toxic dry wall&quot; ?
Thank you,
