Multiple Chemical Sensitivity

My name is Wendy, and I have been an active member on The Mighty for a few years now. This is my first time being a group leader, and I am so excited and honored to serve in this capacity.

I am a positive, vibrant person who lives with M.E./CFS, fibromyalgia, Epstein Barr Virus, hypothyroidism, and multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS). I have been sick for 20 years, but my illness progressed throughout the years, to where I could no longer work, and now it’s been five years since I worked. As you well know, living with chronic illness changes everything, but I insist on living my best life everyday and enjoying what I can!

I love movies, hanging out with family and friends, unique tasty foods, working on my YouTube Channel, gardening, rich conversations, and being creative!

I want the best for us all and wish you peace and love on your journey!🌻💞Wendy #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis #Fibromyalgia #ChronicEpsteinBarrVirus #LymeDisease #MultipleChemicalSensitivity #HypothyroidismUnderactiveThyroidDisease #MentalHealth #ChronicIllness #CheckInWithMe #DistractMe

Hey, y’all! With ME/CFS, sometimes it is hard to even do the things you enjoy.😩 But part of living our best lives is to insert fun things that add to our overall quality of life.

In this gardening video I feel rough but carryon anyway. This is not to say that I always push through or that I don’t have bed days. This is just a day in my life.

Gardening and creating videos helps me to feel like I’m contributing to the world and gives me purpose. I invite you to SUBSCRIBE 🥳 to my YouTube Channel to see glimpses of how I live my best life with chronic illness! What are some hobbies you enjoy? ❤️🌻Wendy

If you have ME/CFS, you understand how difficult it is starting and completing ANYTHING! Well, I finally cleaned out my bathroom cabinet, and I feel so much better, sans the clutter! 😘🌻 youtu.be/oYlWpBhAkEQ #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis #ChronicFatigueSyndrome #Fibromyalgia #MultipleChemicalSensitivity #ChronicIllness #HypothyroidismUnderactiveThyroidDisease #MentalHealth

Hi, fellow spoonies!🥰 Since retiring due to chronic illness, my money is not as “long”😆 as it once was, which is one reason why I had to become more selective in what I purchased. Check out my video on the 24 Things I No Longer Purchase! Are there things you no longer purchase since you’ve been sick? Love ya for watching!🥰🌻Wendy

Hey, y’all! Some of us spoonies are not able to handle employment, so it can be frustrating when people ask what you do for a living. Here are my thoughts on how to respond when they ask that pesky question!🤗🧡 youtu.be/YM5fQug4Wgs #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis #Fibromyalgia #MultipleChemicalSensitivity #HypothyroidismUnderactiveThyroidDisease #ChronicEpsteinBarrVirus

Has anyone in America lived in a prefabricated home/double wide trailer/manufactured home? (I’m not sure if they have them in other countries, but if they do, please share your experience too!)
I need to buy a house. But I might only be able to afford one of these type of homes.
Have any of you Mighty disabled folks bought one? What was your experience like? Do you regret it? How is it specifically with regards to disability and illness? Also any insight with regards to mold? I have mold toxicity and am extra sensitive.
