9. After I was poisoned with Malathion by a city worker

Using the wrong pesticide 3 days in a row for mosquito spraying by trucks in my neighborhood,I got Multiple Chemical Sensitivity and severe smell sensitivity. My whole neighborhood got sick. The smell of broccoli cooking on the stove would close my throat - let along perfume. I could not even put gas in the car because of the smell. Then I became very allergic to most food. I moved to the country for clean air am about 80% improved.

Have you been exposed to any chemicals, pesticides, mold, gas, propane etc?

Check out the Multiple Chemical Sensitivity forums all over the web and on Facebook. Hightened smell is one of the main symptoms - many get food sensitivities too.

My heightened smell is way reduced but I still have it. When you smell something strongly - leave or walk away fast as your body might start reacting in various ways.

Masking can help - buffered vitamin C or anything buffered like Tri Salts or AlkaSeltzer Gold. Also fruit helps. My PhD Allergy Dr said, when you react, your body turns acidic and you need to buffer it right away. Many have had to quit their jobs. Leave the area if you can, explain to co workers your perfume sensitivity.
