Will mold forming in a coffee cup & sitting under your desk for several months cause mold poisoning?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: Unless you're very sensitive to mold I wouldn't expect any problems with exposure to this small amount of mold. Symptoms would consist of watery eyes, sneezing,coughing,wheezing, throat irritation.
