MCS and Meetings - Not a Good Mix

Had an early meeting in a relatively small room today and spent the entire time with my eyes tearing and my head feeling like it was going to explode. Add to that my pounding heart and the mixture is fairly lethal. Trying to get my point across when I could barely see let alone think coherently was not easy. The day didn't get much better since the exposure to so many toxins gave me a really pounding headache and everyone on my team seemed to need my expertise in some form or another all day. Fortunately the further I got from the toxins the better I felt so by the time I arrived home, poof - no headache.

I stopped going to meetings at the office because of the new furnishings, new carpet, new paint, and everyone's perfume and cologne making me so sick I couldn't concentrate on anything, and now I attend all meetings by teleconference. It works just fine and they get my brain power at optimum best. You have a right to ask for an alternative way to attend meetings if you are getting sick from the office environment. I hate to see you suffer through this in silence!
