The woman allergic to her own FEELINGS



Chloe Print-Lambert loved being outdoors. She spent all her time riding horse, mucking in at the stables, and going to Zumba classes. But now, the 20-year-old is confined to a wheelchair, unable to walk or look after herself, at risk of suffering a deadly allergic reaction to anything at all - including her own feelings. Miss Print-Lambert, from Bidford-on-Avon, Warwickshire, suffers from a slew of conditions, which are severely debilitating. She has already suffered seizures caused by jewellery, medication, temperature change - and even feeling excited - and has no way of knowing what her body will develop an allergy to next.

 According to Miss Print-Lambert, 'My reactions can cause skin rashes, swelling, heart rate increase, breathing difficulties - at worse they could be fatal - and because they can come at any time, with no warning, I always have to be on alert. 'I've reacted to everything from a necklace I'd been wearing for years, to the medication I take to control my illness. 'A change in temperature can cause me to have a reaction - I have to sleep with a fan in my room so I can cool down straight away if I need to. 'I've even developed allergies to my emotions. On Mother's day, I'd been in hospital for weeks, and my whole family were coming to see me. 'I was so excited, I went out into the corridor to see them, and had a seizure straight away.' She explained. More photos after the cut...
