Post: I have mold growing in bedroom of rental

The bedroom is adjacent to the bathroom. At first there was green stuff growing on the wall. I don't know if this is mold or mildew. Then later white stuff was accumulating on leather surfaces on the floor of the closet, and later it turned greenish and had a musty odor. There was also dusty, greenish stuff accumulating on the bedside tables and dressers. When the technician came out the second time they said I need to open the bathroom window after I shower. My girlfriend and I were sleeping in there and she got bronchitis. I cleared most of the things out of there except the bed, and we no longer use that room. There is still a strong musty odor in there. 

Another technician with my management is coming out to assess the humidity. However, I will strongly consider the suggestion of hiring my own contractor to assess it.

I am renting a two bedroom and a severe amount of mold is growing in one of the bedrooms. I notified my management about it, two technicians have looked at it and the property manager, and they basically blamed me saying I have to open the windows more. They said there is nothing wrong with the walls. I bleached the walls and cleared most the items out but there is still a strong musty odor. I am concerned they will charge me for it when I move out. What are my rights?
