Answer to Question 2

Multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS) is also called environmentally triggered illness because it arises from low-level chemical exposure to ordinary substances in the environment, e.g., perfume and tobacco smoke. Symptoms of this new disease include runny nose, breathing difficulties, memory problems, chest pain, depression, dizziness, fatigue, headache, inability to concentrate, nausea, aches and pains in muscles and joints, and heart palpitations. MCS was first described almost a half century ago when a Chicago allergist treated a number of patients who reported becoming ill after being exposed to various petrochemical. Since that time, many more cases of MCS have been reported, yet there is no agreed-upon definition of the condition, no medical test that can diagnose it, and no proven treatment.
