During 2005 internship in York International I met Angie. She has severe allergic reaction, sneezing and coughing a lot. She told me she had developed such symptom after stayed in USA for 3-4 years. One intern named Juwan living in Baltimore seems have even more stronger allergic reaction. One time he talked me something, I somehow couldn't get what his meaning even after he repeated couple times. He speaks in ebony accent with heavy breath. Words from him were like spoken with mouthful of food to me. I was in my 5th year in USA and still couldn't get use to different English speaking accents and got really nervous when couldn't get what others' said. Next day he appeared not understand what I said even after I repeated many times. I tried hard to make him understand what I said and didn't think much that time. Now recalling the incidence, I feel that he maybe pretend not understand. I used to think he is friendly person, now feel that he maybe a narrow-minded person. If I didn't remember wrong, Juwan told me that his father is a cardiology doctor working for Johns' Hopkins.
后来搬到 Cockysville Baltimore的租房后，我也开始有些过敏反应，由于房间内的空气味道引起的。有时我会闻到腐烂动物的味道从衣帽间飘出来，但是找不到任何尸体。打电话给了物管。一次物管人员在我套房里搜了一阵，又去楼上找了一下，没得到任何结论。我注意到有个椭圆形脸，中青年，比普通个子稍高的黑人有时会出入我们的这栋楼。
After moved to an apartment in Cockysville Baltimore, I also started to develop some kind of allergic symptoms with the smell inside the apartment. Sometime I would smell rotten animal from the closet area, but couldn't find anything. I called the apartment maintenance office. One time one maintenance guy came to look around my apartment, also the apartment upstairs, but couldn't conclude anything. I did notice that there was one strange oval shaped, younger than middle age, above average height African-American guy coming in and out time by time from our apartment building.
于2007 年圣诞节期间，跟朋友爬了山，吃了海鲜，第二天早上严重咳嗽。我在Mars 超市旁边的Padonia 门诊处看了医生。等了好久。医生取了唾液样，回来后告诉我，没有大碍。他问我中国好还是美国好。说实话，说不上来。咳嗽都咳不上来了。我尽最大的努力跟他说得病过程。
他让我去买不用处方的药Motron。那药没起多大作用。后来感觉到胸闷和呼吸困难，就去看了呼吸系统专科医生, Dr. Randall。他给我开了很多过敏药。用了那些药后，呼吸稍微通畅了一些，但是帮助不是很大。我的喉咙还是红肿。
During 2007 Christmas after hiking and having a seafood dinner with friends, I had extremely sever cough next morning。I visited the doctor in the clinic beside the Mars grocery store. After an extreme long wait, the doctor took some saliva sample from me. He came back and asked me between China and America which country is better. Frankly I have no idea. I tried to feed illness related information to him as much as I can. He told me there was no big problem with me and prescribed over the count medicine, Motron, to me. It didn’t help much. I went to see the pulmonary specialist, Dr. Randall. He prescribed a lot of allergic medicine to me. It reduced some symptoms, but not much. My throat kept having inflammation.
我停止吃那些过敏药，开始了中医治疗。我先拜访了 Rockville的一位不错的针灸师，高忠良医生。他治好了我的咳嗽，喉咙红肿，和胸闷。但是我的喉咙还是不是很舒服。高医生显得很忙。我就继续去我家附近 Kaiing 介绍的针灸师施成章那里治疗。没有吃过敏西药，搬到新家后，我的呼吸问题基本治好了。
I stopped using those allergic medicine and started Chinese traditional treatment。I first visited a good acupuncturist, Dr. GaoZhongLiang, in Rockville. He stopped the cough, inflammation and stuffed chest. But I still felt uncomfortable on my throat, then visited the doctor close to my house that Kaiing introduced to me. Without taking any allergic medicine and after I moved into my new house, I finally got cured. On 25th December, during the friends gathering, Kaiing asked me if I visited Dr. Shi. I told her I've bee cured, so didn't visit him.
2010年12月25日，与凯英，单尔，小金夫妇，小周，和另一对夫妇聚会时，凯英问我有没有去看施医生。我说治好了就没去了。最后一次去看施医生，提到凯英，施医生介绍一个叫王实（名子这么发音）的男人，那人58 岁，有两个长大的儿子，在卖卖房子。我就跟他说，听起来跟凯英的情况很相近。凯英40多岁，快50，也有两个长大的儿子，而且也兼职做房子销售。我说我会跟凯英说的。在回家的路上打电话给凯英，留了言。后来她打给我，我就一五一十的跟凯英说。如果感兴趣让她直接打电话给施医生，可能在施医生家附近的教堂会面。当时她对会面的教堂很纠结。我就问她有没有去，她说也没有。第二天，我打电话给凯英问她想不想参加一个下个周末的活动。她说她身体不舒服，必须呆在家里，准备去看医生。
On December 25, 2010, I attend the friends' gathering with Kaiing, Daner, and other couples in Hunan Taste, then went to the Jin's house to spend time together. The last time when I visited Dr. Shi, he asked me about Kaiing. He told me he knew one guy named WangShi, 58 in age, having two grow up sons, real-estate agent. I told him that this guy seems matching for Kaiing, who is in late 40s, having two grow up sons (living with her ex-husband), and does part time job as real-estate agent. I promised Dr. Shi that I would inform Kaiing. On the way back home, I made phone call to Kaiing and left the message on her phone. She called me back, I told her everything heard from Dr.Shi. I told her if she was interested in that guy, she 'd better contact with Dr. Shi and they may be arranged to meet in the church near by Dr. Shi's house. She wished that guy to visit her in her church. So I asked her if she had visited Dr. Shi. She replied that she didn't either. Next morning I called Kaiing and asked her if she want to attend some events next weekend. She said she got sick and had to stay home.
单尔是凯英的好朋友和同事。第一次遇到她是在2007 情人节朋友聚餐。桌子是凯英的同事叫陆明（这么发音）定的，但是他和老婆没参加。从施医生那里听到单尔有一次全身痛，不得不进医院。我打了一个电话给凯英。凯英跟我说单尔离婚了，是有那么回事。我打电话给单尔。她挺起来还可以。我们聊了一会儿。我跟她说，我们三个人周末没事都可以聚聚。圣诞节前1-2 星期我打电话给她们，想不想去买圣诞礼物。单尔没回话。凯英说要去看电影。这次聚会中，单尔有跟我说不要打电话给她，有事打给凯英。听得很惊讶。后来发了一些可参加的活动清单给她们。单尔回了一份邮件显得很愤怒。我就再没有理单尔了。
Daner is close friend and colleague of Kaiing. First time we met together was back in 2007 Valentine's Day friends' gathering dinner. The dinner was booked by Kaiing's another colleague named LuMing at Little Italy restaurant. But somehow he didn't attend. Heard from Dr. Shi that Daner had extreme body pain and had to visit hospital, I called Kaiing and asked about it. Kaiing told me about Daner had divorced. I made phone call to Daner. She sound fine and told me that she had switched to different acupuncturist that I might visited back in 2006. We had a pleasant chat. I told her that she, Kaiing, and I can always spend time together during weekends if we individually have nothing to do. Kaiing did initiated an activity, but was canceled because Daner had to attend a crab dinner with others. During that dinner gathering, Daner told me not to phone her, but Kaiing only. I sent some event /activity list to both of them. Daner once replied with an email with kind of anger. So I stopped contacting with her.
在中医治疗过程中，我还去了在 Rockville的华裔呼吸科医生。他告诉我成为过敏治疗医生的原因是他在来美国上大学的第5个年头就开始受严重的过敏反应不得不在上课时把鼻孔用卫生纸堵起来不让鼻涕流出。他说很多华裔都会来美国5-7年后产生过敏反应。他在我背上测了过敏源，但是基本没有，只有对螨虫有一点。我呼吸系统的障碍看起来跟过敏没有多大联系。
During Chinese tranditional treatment, I visited another pulmonary Chinese doctor in Rockville. He told me the reason he became an allergist, because he had extremely allergic reaction himself that he had to stuff his nose to stop flowing during the classes after studied in USA for about 5 years. He said many Chinese develop allergic reaction after staying in USA about 6-7 years. He tested me for many different allergens. I'm not allergy to almost any element tested, but little bit to mite. My symptom seems not caused by allergy.
这个医生问我做什么。当我告诉他我在国内生产和出口工艺品后，他告诉我他认识非洲一个国家的皇室人员想买瓷质碟子。我跟他说自从我来美国上学后就不再过问那些生意上的事了，但是我的合作人还继续从中国买工艺品。在下一个就诊，我就把朋友带去，谈谈合作意向，互相交换联系信息。让他把需要的产品样图发给我们。但是就不了了之了。
This Chinese doctor asked me what I do for living. After I told him that I used to manufacture/sell arts&crafts back in China, he told me he knew some royal family members from some African country that were interested in buying porcelain plates. I told him I hadn't working in that field after I studied in USA, but my partner is still traveling back and forth between China and USA to buy and sell crafts. During the next office visit, I took my partner there to discuss the business and exchanged contact information and asked him to send sample pictures. But never heard anything after that.
第一个就诊的呼吸系统专科医生问我吃了什么中药。我问针灸师说明情况，要了一份中药单子给了他。 Kaiing 问我要了高医生的联系信息，她说朋友在 Rockville想看中医。最后一次去看高医生时，他添了一个小年轻帮忙，他的信用卡付款机不在，我不得不写支票给他。
The 1st pulmonary specialist asked me what kind of medicine I took, I got a list of Chinese herb names from the acupuncturist to him. Kaiing asked for the contacting information of the acupuncturist in Rockville, Dr. GaoZhongLiang and told me her friends there look for one. I gave the information to her. During the latest visit to Dr. Gao, I saw a young boy was helping him and his credit card register was not there. I had to write a check to him for the payment.
Elena 的婚礼结束后第二天早上，我请她的朋友，王梅，在我的住处借宿一夜到 Ihop吃早餐。她没吃多少食品，倒是吃了很多药片。她跟我说她每天都必须吃的。Elena 的另一个朋友，凯英老跟我说她有这样那样的病，手指甲，膀子，泌尿系统等等。特别是她的胃。因为这，她晚上都不能睡觉。不过她特别爱吃日本料理的生鱼片和寿司。Elena 的老公和公公都是Johns' Hopkins 医院的医生。
Next morning after the Elena's wedding, I invited her friend, May Wang, who stayed in my apartment for the night for the breakfast in Ihop. She didn't eat much food, but handful of pills. She told me she had to eat that every day. Kaiing kept telling me that she has all kind of health problems, nails, arms, urinate system ...etc. especially her stomach problem, she couldn't sleep because of it. But she does eat sushi-me and sushi, her favorite food. Both Elena's husband and father in law are the doctors from John's Hopkins.
自从2011年，时不时我会在半夜因打喷嚏，咳嗽，或喉咙干躁惊醒，引起的原因是不知从哪里飘进房间的刺激性很强的气体。我看到那个同一个椭圆形脸的黑人从我左边的邻居家跟着穿着黑裙的女主人走出来。这个黑人出没于我以前租房的大楼。后又在新家附近的修车库见过这个黑男人和一个黑女人。
好一阵没看到女主人的父母来拜访了。
8月1日凌晨，我被同样味道和感觉的气体惊醒，就换了一个房间睡觉。听到左边邻居小女儿的哭声。紧接着同样味道和感觉的气体飘进鼻子。这天后没见他们的小孩。
8月10日，11日临晨，同样被奇怪的气体惊醒，不过，味道没有了，只是对鼻子和皮肤刺激很大。
8月10 日下午收垃圾的黑人到我隔间清垃圾桶，很突然的来一句 “How are you？” （以前从没说过）。 没理。
8 月11日早上走出家门，就看到一只腹部朝天的死蝉躺在台阶上。晚上回家时就找不到了。今天坐着上班突然感觉脑后颈子上一点热，然后脑袋重重的，手脚一阵麻木感觉好像后脑勺被电击一样。真觉得不舒服，John Beasley 叫Kyle Wilitte 来我隔间问问题。他自己一边说着走过了我的隔间。
8月12日早上被同样刺激性的空气惊醒，今天脑袋沉重的感觉不见了，但是移动膀子时，会有发麻的感觉。
8月13日早上6点15分左右被同样刺激性的空气惊醒，这种气体持续了20分钟左右散了。
Since 2011, time by time I could smell strange air flowing into the house. I had hard time to figure out how the air gets into my house. It comes even the air conditioning system and fan were turned off and no strange air outside the house. I would be woken up by sneezing, coughing, or dry throat at the middle of night caused by that strange air. I saw the same oval face black guy coming out from my left side neighbor. Didn't see the woman’s parents.
August 1st, smelled funny air and woke up and moved to different room. Just settled for little while, then heard a little girl's crying ( left side neighbor's daughter). A breath of air with the same smell and sensation blew to my nose. Didn't see their kids after this day.
On August 10th ,11th , I was also woken up by strange air, except it has no smell, but irritates my nose and skin.
On August 10th afternoon, a garbage collector came to the cubicle to empty trash cans, and suddenly popped out “How are you”. I didn't reply.
On August 11th morning, saw a dead cicada lying outside my door and came back evening and couldn't find it anymore. At work, suddenly I felt point of burn on the lower back of my head on the neck, then head became so heavy and tight and my arms and legs feel numb sensation as if I got electrical shot. Feeling so bad, I heard John Beasley asked Kyle Willette to ask me some questions about the work. So I turned my back and answered questions Kyle asked while he stood at the entrance of my cubical. John walked away.
On August 12th morning, smelled the similar kind of air with irritation. My head feels fine, but I can still fill the numb sensation when my arms move.
On August 13th morning around 6:15am, smelled the similar kind of air with irritation. It lasted 20 minutes also.
On August 14th , no strange air. The woman's SUV wasn't there since August 13th night until then.
On August 15th, no strange air
On August 16th , strange air blew in around 7:00am
On August 19th , strange air blew in at 11:00pm middle of night last until 3:03am of August 20th . Smell it while sitting at the living room. Left the door open.
Started Around October 4th , for about over one week the air appeared normal and I had peaceful sleep.
October 13th, the same air came in again around 10:30pm.
October 24th, the same air came in around 4:00am. My face was irritated. Same air came in around 20:00pm
