Here are some web pages about Multiple Chemical Sensitivity I’ve been reviewing this week.
Dr. Grace Ziem's new website header.
Dr. Grace Ziem, a pioneer in the field of chemical injury, has given her website a major renovation. Chemical Injury.net: Improving your quality of life one day at a time.
This website is dedicated to providing both the public and the medical community with the latest research and information on chemical injury. You’ll find articles, lists, and links covering the prevention, evaluation, and treatment of chemical sensitivity and related conditions caused by the thousands of poorly tested or untested, hazardous chemicals you are exposed to every day. Each section features articles specifically written for the general public and articles specifically written for medical professionals.
Topics range from the negative impacts on health due to pesticides to the treatable forms of chemical sensitivity to regular updates on harmful chemicals and medical products and their damaging effects, including chemical causes of memory loss and new evidence that Parkinson’s disease is caused by chemical exposure.
Toni Temple, founder and president at the Ohio Network for the Chemically Injured, reports on Deceived, Disabled, Dejected, Dehumanized, Dismissed, and Dying: The Widespread Dilemma of MCS Disability.
MCS America offers a terrific May 2010 Event Planning Kit for MCS Awareness Month.
In June 2003, the Public Service Alliance of Canada published MULTIPLE CHEMICAL SENSITIVITY AT WORK: Guide for PSAC Members.
Multiple Chemical Sensitivity has become a union health and safety issue. The Public Service Alliance of Canada continues to fight for improved health and safety conditions for our members. Our union is taking a lead in having multiple chemical sensitivity recognized as a work-related illness. As well, we are working to have member benefit entitlements recognized.
In 2008, the Ohio State University Extension office published The Invisible Environment Fact Sheet Series: Multiple Chemical Sensitivity.
