If so maybe you have become dulled to fragrances and your nose isn’t picking up on something unless it is really overpowering.I just can’t recommend not going to the hospital.”. One of them had allergies and asthma and said “I can’t tell you not to… but if it were me…” (detailed what happened, reactions, getting out of the scents/heat into the amulance/getting O2, how I felt) “and if it were me and I felt like you say you do now, I’d just go home and drink a lot of fluids, have dinner, and take it easy for the night… but if you do that and have any problems don’t hesitate to call us. I’m like not really but if I need to I need to and you’re the professionals. The ambulance techs were awesome and treated me in the ambulance then asked if I wanted to go to the hospital. I heard the first responders (firemen) were all really cute, but I don’t remember them. Then I went outside (told a workmate… who thankfully followed me… and I remember her calling 911 wishing I could tell her not to but I was sprawled out on the concrete and couldn’t). I’d had trouble breathing before but never needed an ambulance! I used my inhaler. Bonus? Everyone told me she did it the afternoon before while I was out so I went and asked her not too… said she wouldn’t, then did half an hour later. Kicker? She was the HR person and had to do all the workers comp paperwork :)… karma. I actually worked at a place where a lady sprayed so many different scents so heavily that I needed an ambulance… twice (about a year apart). That’s fine… I know not to get that close. I’ve worked with some people where I could only smell their scents if I was RIGHT next to them, like helping them on a pc. Seriously I want to say “If I can smell your perfume/cologne from 20 feet away… it’s TOO MUCH.”. Wedding: October Agreed, but most people don’t have any health issues with scents so they don’t even think about what’s in the products or how it effects other people.I’ve just got a super sensitive and allergic nose.Įven for me though who uses unscented almost everything… I love scents that don’t bother my allergies (like real vanilla, cinnamon, peppermint, or tea tree) and even I’ll get used to it and not notice/smell it and then someone comes over and goes “Oh, your home smells like cinnamon!” and I’m like “It does?” cause I haven’t used it that day. That I can’t be around much scents is just my bad luck lol. I still like smelling scented stuff for a short bit but I can’t be around it long… only being able to smell the chemicals is what’s gross to me. It’s really kinda gross (to me), which is why I call it that. As soon as he walks in the door I can smell the chemical “funk” as I call it because by the time he gets home the scented part of what they were supposed to smell like has faded and he just smells like some weird chemical concoction (not oh, that smells like X but I’m allergic which frequently happens elsewhere or when the scent is present). And when he visits them and returns home he strips and heads straight for the shower because I’m sensitive to smells. DH said he could smell it when he walked in. My DH has a friend, his wife LOVES scents on anything and in everything and she recently complained a candle didn’t have much smell. Kinda like how we tune out a sound we hear all the time but someone visiting asks about it right away. Like if you walk outside and the grass is freshly cut that first inhale is very obvious to your nose, but then if you’re outside a while you don’t even notice it. If you love scents and use them a lot your nose sometimes can’t go “oh yeah, here’s this scent I smell all the time” but instead it’s like “oh yeah that, doesn’t matter”. Also I’d pick one scent at a time to focus on (foral, citrus, musk, whatever and not mix them). Definitely have someone else smell test your freshly laundered clothes.
