Smell

Is anyone else horribly sensitive to odor?

Oh my goodness, I had to use some of that anti static spray today on my skirt and I am so sick now.

The smell is just killing me.

And I can't change because i'm still at work....

I can hardly wear any perfume.

there is only one cologn i'll let my husband wear and only about two perfumes i can wear.

Can anyone relate?

Yes I can totally relate too! Any strong smell from cigarette smoke to loo cleaner. My son insists on using aerosol deodorant which makes it hurt. I cannot use any perfume now and have to becareful of cleaners etc. My son keeps forgetting - when you are trying to attract the girls mums headache doesn't seem to count! Hope you feel better soon.

Most people are extremely sensitive to odors, sounds, and lights during a migraine.

I get so incredibly cranky sometimes because the littlest things hurt...someone in the other room watching tv too loudly, smells of someone else's lunch, bright lights on, and you can't turn them off...(at work or someone else using them)

Then I get mad because I know I shouldn't be grouchy...but when the migraines hit with all their little "extras" I just can't help it!
