I know this sounds CRAZY but since I've been diagnosed in April 2016, the smell of bleach makes me "physically" ill. I've used it my entire for cleaning but NOW it gives me severe headache & sick to my stomach. Cannot get the smell out if my nostrils for hours. So everyone... How crazy am I??? Lol

    Your not crazy, I have become really sensitive to smells and odours. Scented candles and plug ins are a no no in our house now. They make me sneeze and my nose streams, plus a headache. It happens with other house hold cleaners and some food odours seem very strong.
