Yes @Owlunar. Mums bruised area has dark thick hair growing on it and it sweats. It is more sensitive than other parts of her leg.
Her immune system is shot. Fibro Myalgia is caused by a virus. And because her immune system was already compromised, she wasn't able to battle this condition away.
Our whole family, especially the women have severe allergies. Mum and I are chemically sensitive. My Gran was too. It starts with a reaction to perfume in our late teens and early 20's. Then over time, we become sensitive to other things. I have to buy non perfumed shampoo, conditioner, soap, deoderant, washing powder, dishwashing liquid. I cannot use any products in my hair and can't dye it.
My neice has Hosimoto's Disease (probably spelt wrong), which is an auto immune disorder that affects the thyroid. So she is on permanent medication for life.
The men in our family don't get as sick as us. No chemical sensitivities, only hayfever and epidpen allergy to bees.
You'll never guess what my sons girlfriend is allergic to? Cold Weather. She carries an epipen with her whereever she goes. My Grans partner (no relation) was allergic to the sun. It developed as he got older.
Mum and I often talk about those of us with chemical sensitivities as being like the canaries in the mine shafts. We are the first group to be hit and affected by all the chemicals. We are the warning that the world should be looking at and saying "no more"
Do you know, if a chemical has been tested and found to be 'safe' and another chemical has also been found to be 'saf'e. companies can mix those 2 chemicals together and because they have been tested separately, they don't get tested as to what their reaction might be together.
This goes for all the products people use in their houses and businesses. The chemical that makes your tooth paste froth up (serves no purpose other than to froth), is toxic if swallowed. But how many of us may accidently swallow small amounts every day? It adds up. The foaming agent in your shampoo is toxic if injested. Although many people are now reacting to this everyday chemical which is in 99.9% of all shampoos. They are reacting through their skin.
The huge number of exhema (can't spell) increase. And people don't find out what it causing it. Exchema is an allergic reaction. People just treat it. Most doctors don't even explain that properly to people.
The world is full of harmful chemicals. Research confirms this is why the male baby making thingy (not allowed to use the proper words here) count is dropping so low.
It's incidious. But companies just keep putting two or more chemicals together, no ttesting done, and we are all the guinea pigs.
Agent Orange - They now know that the Grandchildren of Vietnam Vets and the Vietnamese people, have a higher risk of being born with certain deformities. Yet they still don't acknowledge all of the deformities and diseases that are showing up in this generation of children. It is so scary. But they haven't learnt from the past. It all just seems to be about profits and all costs.
