chemical sensitivity

well, dr m thinks i might have some kinda chemical sensitivity. Something about the free radicals not detoxings and going round and round. i paid for a genetic test to see if there is some problem with the pathways that do all this stuff. (ok, yes, i am kinda fuzzy on the details except for the $4oo test not covered by insurance, that part is crystal clear). she is thinking this explains the horrible headache i got at christmas time when i was making the postcards and snowman. since then i'v kinda gone up and down with them. got an instant one in evey's class as soon as the iron hit the fabric (nonfused fabric but the ironing board was kinda gunky), cooking on the stove top, and a host of other times i couldn't begin to even figure out what might have triggered it. until i get this sorted out, i don't see a lot of fusing in my future. and this is bad cuz i just not good at the complex piecing needed for pictorials. and if i'm going to react to nonfused fabric at random...
any
one want a brand new sewing room completely stocked?

i see her next week to get the verdict.
