MCS (Multiple Chemical Sensitivity) and/or fragrance intolerance

[markinaboat]

This is something that rears it's head once in a while. For some reason, I've never considered a link with the fact that in recent years, perfumes make me reel, eyes itch like mad, rhinitis, skin heats up, nasty head/eye ache etc. Have found much info online but this is an easy read. Would be interesting to hear from others who have experienced this?

I've just realised that for some reason, we can't paste a url here. Maybe I can pm it on request? Admins?

In the meantime, you can google on "Multiple Chemical Sensitivity in Fibromyalgia and ME/CFS" where it led me to verywellhealth .... where it looks at the connection with MCS and ME/FMS

You cannot paste a URL here on this forum, nor get permission to do so, because outside links are a potential threat to the person clicking on it. It is a forum rule that none are allowed. If an outside link is posted the post will be removed or most of the time will not appear at all.
You can tell people about something in the way you just did, by telling them what to Google to get there.
