Abstract
Introduction: There is currently no recognized association between intracranial hypertension and multiple chemical sensitivity, despite nearly identical symptomatology and similar findings. Case Report: This case report details the complex case of a woman who has multiple chemical sensitivity and idiopathic intracranial hypertension, as well as obstructive sleep apnea. Upon exposure to inhaled common air deodorizer products, her intracranial pressure increased significantly by 7%, during a lumbar puncture. Conclusions: This paper discusses the similarity between the neurological symptoms and the illness model of multiple chemical sensitivity as it compares to intracranial hypertension.
