Hi everyone,
I hope this post finds everyone as well as they can be right now. I need your help.
I have Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS) I have lung disease, as a result of Lupus. I also have diabetes, hyperparathyroidism and high blood pressure.
Having MCS makes me hypersensitive to almost everything, chemicals, perfume, any strong smell, most household products. I am also sensitive to some foods. I react badly to any of afore mentioned. They body reactions, such as increased blood pressure to dangerous levels, increased heart rate and increased pulsing around body, itching and the smells cause pain in my lungs. I am also very sensitive to meds and have very bad reactions to them. My body goes into flight or fight mode when i encounter them. Also my sense of smell is so hightened now, i am like a blood hound and can smell an offending substances a great distance away. In the last year it has become unbearable and is really affecting my quality of life. I am on prednisolone, Hydroxychloroquine and diabetic meds. I was Just wondering whether anyone has experienced this, if so how have they dealt with it, have they found any meds that have helped? I am getting to the point where i am loosing the will to live, because it is such a blight on my life.
I would appreciate your response and any insight you might have.
Thank you.
