Book excerpt: A compelling account of Multiple Chemical Sensitivity illness (MCS): Multiple Chemical Sensitivity is a modern environmental illness that is difficult to live with, often misdiagnosed, and frustratingly misunderstood by many people. This book provides one woman's detailed story of her inklings of illness, its relentless worsening, discovering the cause of her odd symptoms, and the realization of the changes and impact it would have on her life. It also provides a comparison of her experience with another woman's long-term MCS, including the similarities and differences between them. This book includes some of the latest medical findings of the MCS condition, a description of the quirks of the illness and their medical explanations. Learn what can be expected during the course of the illness, numerous tips on how to live with it, and suggestions for others who wish to support you. Unfortunately, we are all susceptible to this illness in our modern chemical-laden world. Will your stress, circumstance and/or genetics, together with hundreds of detectable chemicals in your body, change your immune system forever? Do you know what is really causing your cough, your anxiety, your inability to focus, your inability to sleep well, or your brain fog? Find out what you can do to help ward off MCS.

Download or read book Chemical Sensitivity written by Stephen J. Barrett and published by Prometheus Books. This book was released on 2010-12-31 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chemical sensitivity (or "multiple chemical sensitivity") describes people with numerous troubling symptoms attributed to environmental factors, from simple housepaint to complex building structures and materials in offices and schools. Many such people are seeking special accommodations, applying for disability benefits, and filing lawsuits claiming that exposure to common foods and chemicals has made them ill. Their efforts are supported by some physicians who refer themselves as clinical ecologists. They use questionable diagnoses and treatment methods, while critics charge that these approaches are bogus and that "chemical sensitivity" is not a valid diagnosis. The complaints associated with chemical sensitivity include depression, irritability, poor memory, fatigue, drowsiness, constipation, sneezing, wheezing, skin rashes, headache, chest pain, pounding heart, swelling, upset stomach, paralysis, AIDS-like illnesses, psychotic experiences, and just about every other symptom noted in medical textbooks. One prominent clinical ecologist even claimed that chemical sensitivity patients may well be human "canaries" on an increasingly poisoned planet, and others have actually labeled chemical sensitivity as a disease. While some people are adversely affected by exposure to some chemicals, there is an overwhelming increase in false claims and reports from misled obsessive patients and opportunistic doctors. Chemical Sensitivity examines this phenomenon in depth and the scientific, legal, ethical, and political issues that surround it. The authors explore the speculations about environmental exposure in the light of scientific knowledge of human physiology, allergy and immunology, pathology, toxicology, and clinical medicine. They evaluate cases of chemical sensitivity relative to controlled tests, and reveal that symptoms were brought on by psychological factors rather than physical ones. Chemical Sensitivity also critically assesses claims related to "sick building syndrome," "mercury-amalgam toxicity," "yeast allergy," and Gulf War syndrome.

It then discusses triggering agents such as natural gas, pesticides, solvents, and micotoxins. The authors include new data for indoor and outdoor air pollution that harms the chemically sensitive and chronic degenerative diseased patient as well as new data for breath analysis. They also describe the physiology of chemical sensitivity and chronic degenerative diseases, their manifestations, diagnosis, and approaches to reverse dysfunction. The second volume of a five-volume set, the book provides an essential resource for health care providers diagnosing and treating chemical sensitivity and chronic degenerative disease.
