The number of people suffering from Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS) is greater than the number suffering from AIDS, yet the general public and the medical community know very little about the disease. More and more people are disabled daily, despite the fact that the condition does not have to occur. In Part One of this work, experts review the research into the disease, along with treatment strategies. Part Two examines the legal recourses available to MCS sufferers, such as workers' compensation claims and product liability suits. How the medical community has often worked against MCS sufferers is the focus of Part Three, demonstrating that medical opposition to the disease is unfounded. The editor, an MCS sufferer, details her own case in Part Four.

Multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS) has been defined as a chronic condition in which the symptoms are reproducible with repeated low level chemical exposure (lower than previously or commonly tolerated). The symptoms improve or resolve themselves when the incitants (chemicals) are removed. The responses occur to multiple chemically unrelated substances and symptoms involve multiple organ systems. The patient records together with a completed 217 item questionnaire have been used to explore various concepts on the nature of MCS. A framework has been developed to help understand the perplexities of MCS, taking into account environmental and host factors. It is concluded that the response to environmental triggers leading to the onset of symptoms is not a toxic reaction, but represents a threshold response to low level irritant exposure. The patient with MCS now reacts to various stimuli in an exaggerated manner; it is proposed that the state of ill health that develops would be better referred to as a State of Heightened Reactivity to the Environment.

This workshop had the following objectives: to stimulate further research into multiple chemical sensitivities (MCS) and advise on research priorities; to consider the operational definition of MCS proposed by Miller and Ashford, and if appropriate, to promote its use in further research; and to assist practitioners in the management of persons presenting a syndrome compatible with a diagnosis of MCS. This document includes the reports from the workshop working groups on diagnostics and research, the nine workshop presentations, and eight speakers' papers. Topics of the presentations and papers include the clinical picture of MCS, adaptation and controlled challenges, discrimination between MCS and affective disorders, depression, somatization and the chronic fatigue syndrome, MCS and low-level exposures, and the role of the Environmental Control Unit in diagnosing chemical sensitivity.
