Guest guest Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 Hi Penni, You might be developing allergies to several new things, so start keeping a journal of what you ate, where you were, and what was in the air each time this happened. I do not wear perfume because of that problem. Sometimes a woman will walk past me and her perfume is so strong that it practically knocks me over. I have worked at jobs where the other women would make me so sick because of their perfume. Certain cleaning products do the same. You might need to switch to something more natural and mild. I use a lot of fragrance free items. My mom is severely allergic to smoke and musk perfume. Food allergies can be hard to figure out because a product might have so many things in it, most of what you need a translator to figure out the label. When having these reactions, you might want to take large amounts of Vitamin C with Bioflavenoids. Also, Quercitin or Quercitin & Bromelain. You might need to buy and air purifier. I have a small one next to the woodstove in case a little bit of smoke comes out when we open the door to add more wood. I had one on the kitchen counter, but my husband knocked it off and broke it. I need to buy another one. Hubby occasionally gets in a cooking mood, and he turns the burner on the electric stove to the highest possition. He always ends up burning something or spilling it on the burner, and my poor sinuses have a heck of a time.

Guest guest Posted January 8, 2006 Report Share Posted January 8, 2006 Hi Penni: Does your throat or your mouth get itchy when your throat closes over? Does your head feel like it will implode? Do you feel faint or have black outs? We all need to read the ingredients on labels on everything that you put into our mouths. MSG comes under many different names, such as natural flavourings. This is VERY miss leading. I have been doing a lot of research on MSG, it is causing a lot of health problems including weight gain and Parkinson's dis-ease plus many more illness. You may be eating something with MSG in it. Try eating organic fruits and veggies for a while and see what happens. Be well, my dear, Meganteresa <tmbdobie wrote: Hi Penni,You might be developing allergies to several new things, so startkeeping a journal of what you ate, where you were, and what was in theair each time this happened.

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 Do you have an enlarged thyroid? When I had my thyroid and it was enlarged this happened to me too. Just a thought.
