Multiple Chemical Sensitivity on the rise as research exposes dangers
Former sheep farmer Josephine Wadley-Evans was diagnosed with Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS) in the late eighties and said she's now allergic to perfumes, deodorants, washing powders and more.
"I sort of remain as much as I can inside my house," she said.
"All sorts of things set up an impact and I can go into anaphylaxis. The chemicals make me allergic to paramedics and allergic to hospitals."
Ms Wadley-Evans, formerly of Ballarat but now living in Sydney, started getting sick after being exposed to chemicals on her farm.
