How Many Of You Have Odor, Light, Etc. Sensitivity? I Ended Up With What Seems Chemical And Odor Sensitivity Some Years Ago.

A myMPNteam Member asked a question 💭

This creates often immediate or soon after migraine head pain, stress, anxiety, and extra tight neck and shoulders.

Bright and flashing lights cause head pain and can make head feel weird.

Brain cat scan April 2023 was normal.

Researching if this is ET, or blood disorder related.

Makes much sense it is bc of the high inflammatory part of ET, blood disorders. 🩸

Hi and good wishes being sent your way today . I have not noticed these sensitivities, but it may be that I’m so preoccupied with all of the other stuff going on in my body and my head that I just haven’t noticed😀 I’ll pay some attention to this just to see if maybe these are things that are happening. I do seem to be totally enjoying my food, wine and dessert loaves that I bake and I can certainly smell any dished being baked with garlic but that’s not really agreed indicator since garlic is such a strong scent. Maybe others can shine some light on this today. Meantime, enjoy your weekend and try to stay positive as we all do.
