We can not tell you: It is very difficult to tell you without knowing what kind of sickness you have and if it may be related to the envoirenment in your New House Consult your Doctor and if your medical condition is considred related to your envoirenment than have your House checked for any things like molds in the house,any source of pollution in the air ducts and others.What about the other members of your family
