    They are most likely very related, and are classical symptoms of a
condition discussed on the Immune and MCS-CI lists.

   Check out http://www.mall-net.com/mcs/crtpain.html

    The site is for those with odd allergies called Multiple Chemical
Sensitivity, which includes some of the fumes from CRT's, automobile
exhaust, etc.
    A related condition is chronic subclinical low body temperature, more
fully described at http://www.mall-net.com/mcs/coldbody.html

Are you also sensitive to bright sunlight?  Char, instead of tan, etc?
terrible headaches from longer exposure to the sun?

   Classical mold allergy reaction

   That is a classical orthodox medical response to Multiple Chemical
Sensitivities.  And is usualy wrong.  Though... low body temperature or
poor nutrition, as well as allergy reactions, CAN interfere with the
proper function of the brain. (Often called "brain fog")  But in that
case, no amount of psych counseling will do much good till the fundamental
contidion is fixed!
