Trying to go to work with fibromyalgia..

Have you tried to change out all your chemically laden scented products in your hope. That caused major trouble with my husband and my sister and their fibromyalgia pain. My sister walked out on her job because they wouldn't believe she was in the pain she was experiencing. I have MCS (multiple chemical sensitivity). When I talked to her about that she started changing things that were scented in her home. It didn't completely solve the problem but it did help her lot.
The chemicals they put in our everyday products are so toxic they make me want to die, I get so sick and the pain is so tremendous that I just want to give up. I have made my home as scent free and chemically free as I can and it makes a huge difference. So maybe some of your pain could be helped by eliminating scented products like laundry detergent. dryer sheets. perfume. cologne. dish soap. hand lotion, shampoo, any other products in your home that is scented. This save me and my husband his fibromyalgia and my sisters also. Hope you find a solution and I hope this could help.

Wise move and I completely agree!

So many everyday products we use at home are carcinogenic and toxic. I’ve never really used scented sprays in my home, only essential oils from Holland and Barrett, a wholesome food chain in the UK, I also use paraben-free and sulphate hair products and skincare.

I have skin and smell sensitivity, which is terrible when I’m out. It’s terrible when I smell someone’s perfume, especially since I have a citrus allergy, so eating out is a nightmare. Restaurants don’t recognise that on their allergy lists.

Anything which eases our symptoms is a good decision.
