MCS is notoriously difficult to treat, and those who suffer from this disorder are invariably condemned to spend the rest of their lives avoiding whatever chemicals cause their adverse reactions.
In many cases, this means isolation, an end to the type of life that most of us consider normal, and huge expense incurred as a result of having to purchase special chemical-free clothing, bedding and furniture, as well as chenical-free products for personal care and home cleaning, etc.
Fortunately, there is now hope for those with MCS, in the form of helminthic therapy, which is proving to be surprisingly effective against this condition.
Below are a few of the reports of success from people who are using helminths to control their MCS.
“I have MCS and I get (among other things) rashes from exposure to people wearing scents, going into buildings other than my home (due to cleaning chemicals, carpets, air fresheners, etc.), and exposure to the sun… I BELIEVE I’m seeing some improvement in rashes.”

“… my MCS symptoms are also improved… the irritability I get after seeing fragranced students or clients is also gone.”

“… my bronchial tubes no longer react at all to the myriad of lesser triggers (i.e. perfumes, scented products, smoke).”

“… I no longer need to worry at all about fragrance, so can entertain ‘smelly’ people, use ‘smelly’ taxis…”

“Her chemical sensitivity, identified by how much she can smell chemicals, has almost disappear…”

“So my problems ranged from :– chemical allergies especially pesticide and petroleum sensitivity, cold fever on exertion, no energy (running on empty feeling), reacting to nearly all foods, never confident of going out anywhere, mental confusion, ringing ears, extreme itchy ears etc, sensitive to odours etc. etc. (But, after 8 months) things are radically different. That whole dysfunctional autoimmune veneer I was smothered by has gone. Imagine walking out of a fog that has been with you for decades…” (Reported in a private discussion, 2011.)
“I suffer , or should I say, used to suffer from fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, and multiple chemical sensitivities. I have hookworm, follow the SCD diet, ….and seem to be doing much better.” (Reported in a private discussion, January 2012.)
“My wife suffered from allergies, food intolerances and chemical sensitivity for about 13 years and we tried many therapies. 22 months ago, she started helminthic therapy and this is by far the best remedy we have found.” http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/helminthictherapy/message/8886
