A member asked:

Only at work and only on the 2nd floor my throat immediately becomes very dry but no cough and my nose becomes runny but no sneezing. what is this?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sick building : This could be a condition called sick building syndrome. Has their been construction or remodeling recently? Is it an old building (before 1990 or so)? Are others sick? What are your allergies and sensitivities? Sometimes, vapors/fumes from chemicals or hvac units in buildings can cause hypersensitivity reactions.
