Hi, @drsharon - I'd like to tag a few members who have mentioned in various groups across Mayo Clinic Connect something about formaldehyde causing reactions. @pkalkstein @colely @gjs @champton @jenniferhunter @lvnl @rashida @ailsas @northerner may have some thoughts from their personal experiences about whether formaldehyde could be causing so many of your asthmatic and skin reactions you've developed and also advise about how to pursue, if yes.

@lisalucier I am hypersensitive to formaldehyde odors. I knew someone working with pathogenic fungi. Flormaldehyde was used as the mounting medium. The skin not protected by the eye pieces was burned. In my teens a doctor prescribed a formaldehyde mouth wash for mouths ulcers Luckily my mother listened when I complained. Cause of sores : vitamin B deficiency. All of which is to say it is highly toxic …it is embalming fluid
