Hi Stephie, I don't like to say " I have PATM". DOESN'T sound right... " I have people are allergic to me"... When I first noticed the symptoms I didn't realize how bizarre a situation life had thrown at me. I have been making people cough relentlessly, clear their throats loudly (just to make sure I hear their suffering), & some even start to gag and gasp for air as if their throat was swelling shut for about 4 years. The first 2 years I thought it was my hygiene since I lived on the street, but since I've been living in my apartment I know it's definitely not my hygiene and never was. I live in Seattle and by now the entire apartment complex knows something is up. I have always had severe social anxiety issues so I would isolate a lot before, but now that I've started to come out more and socialize, I'm being forced back into isolation because of this terrible dilemma. I too have been to the doctors and even though they also get reactions around me they swear they haven't a clue. I know this isn't a solution but even though some of this doesn't make sense, like how people react to us from across the street or two rooms away, I swear some people even start running past me just to get away faster! All I can suggest is read different people's experiences as much as you can, this website is helping me piece together my own theory about my problem. By you sharing your story I share my story, & we all learn from each other & I have A strong feeling there are many different ways to end up with this malady of ours. And one last thing, if anyone's situation is as bad as mine is, HANG IN THERE DON'T GIVE UP! This has kept me from employment, from my family/friends, made my depression worst (on the brink of suicidal). But the best remedy so far for me, when I don't feel like going anywhere because the shame is unbearable, feeling like the new age hunchback of Notre dame, has been to just go outside and yell f+++ everybody! F+++ you, f+++ you, YOU'RE cool! All the while the routine coughing and all that goes on just join in and cough and sneeze burp right back at them. Simply ignore them just do what ever you want to do, life goes on.
Some people have a really negative reaction to flax. I can’t eat it at all. Careful with the flax. It takes a while to heal your intestines. Keep up the gluten free dairy free diet for a month and you should notice results. It should help. And you can eat potato and rice.
It has been like 7 years. It is forever. But it is totally worth it compared to life before. I also had really bad eczema and psoriasis that stays clear if I stay on the diet. I can sleep well at night for the first time in my life and I feel 100 times better than I did before. I hadn’t realized that I had always had digestive problems. Life is so much better now.
I hope you are doing better. I had it for years. I figured out my problem. I needed to completely eliminate all diary and gluten. I need to be extremely vigilant. A can’t have any trace. But, I have a normal life now. Only get reactions from others when I accidentally eat one of these things. I hope this helps, life will get better.
It's a fight or flight reaction. It's not diet, I'm sure of it. Not chemicals in shampoo. It's inside you, endocrine stuff. You used to wonder what it was. Now you're afraid of what your reaction will be to just the idea of everyone being allergic to you. They know it's you, and you know they know. That's when the avoidance comes in, and you are pretty much housebound like a textbook agoraphobic. Am I right?
Stephie,
Further, you're not crazy or imagining this stuff. Fund someone to help you. I waited far too long

I just responded. I am Doug,

Hi. I think it is in part due to a flushing sensation, much like when you are embarrassed. In this situation, chemicals are released, particularly from your feet.
I suffer to. If this sounds right, let me know
It's this skin cleanser called Hibiclens it worked miracles for me. I use it daily as a body wash, you should give it a try.
