Story about Multiple Chemical Sensitivity , Lyme Disease.

MCS, an isolated life

Mar 1, 2020

Year Condition Began: 2013


I got Lyme disease and developed sensitivities to fragrances and chemicals starting in the fall of 2013. I was seeing a naturopath but appointments and treatment was expensive. Started using HerbPharm herbal tinctures and felt better. The Lyme bacteria is gone but I get sick with nausea and rashes and headaches every time I’m exposed to fragrances, especially and predominantly laundry products.

I’ve changed jobs twice and I haven’t found anyone at work who believes me or will allow/establish a fragrance-free environment. I’m not working now (March 2020) and I haven’t been approved for disability. I’m fearful about running out of money. I want to work but where do I work if no one believes me? I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired.
