Paint Allergy

 

When I was a undiagnosed coeliac child, I was suffering badly and one of the things the doctor said was that I was allergic to the lead paint then common in houses. So my father burnt it all off and replaced it with the new lead-free paints. Whether it made any difference, I can’t remember, but it was probably at the time, I grew out of the worst effects of the disease.

However, we’ve just had the kitchen painted and for the last few days, I’ve been suffering again.

Does anybody else suffer from fresh paint?
