Conclusions
MCS is a disease that causes physical, psychological, and
existential suffering. The severity of symptoms generates the most
suffering, followed by QoL constraints, while the number and
severity of inhalation intolerances decrease overall suffering.
Musculoskeletal and respiratory problems cause the most physical
suffering. Psychological suffering is marked by worry or anxiety and
joylessness. Existential suffering reveals thoughts of failure and lack
of inner harmony
