Yes I ressenly was exposed to peppermint on cotton balls that someone placed in my daughters home to keep mice a away well it was so strong I got sick burned my throat and nose and made me feel really sick .i got over that then when two weeks later I was helping her move out did not smell the peppermint but I felt my nose burning and got sick again plus I lost my taste . Now two weeks later went to look at a job with my husband he hangs wallpaper I got sick again the house had mold .why am I so sensitive to all this the second time at my daughters why I got sick because of all the mice in the house.one time I lost my taste for a year and no knew why .i did go to the doctors he gave me a antibiotic but did not seem to care.
