I worked in an office with very poor air circulation so all that you could smell was perfume, hairspray and even smokes. I suffer from migraine and they are often triggered by perfume, so I talked to my supervisor about the perfume. There were also girls who would go in the bathroom and put more perfume on. It would smell the whole office up and make me really sick and they just don’t understand what they are doing to me.
Talk to your supervisor, explain your situation and the fact that you have talked to the other women with no luck & ask that the boss take action. I also suffer from migraines which are triggered by perfume but also with various different smells. I went to a specialist for my migraine headaches. I have been put on amitriptylinehcl 25 mg for one week. So far no headaches and my pharmacist said that it would take a couple days of getting used to this medication. I will let you know of the outcome.
