First I would like to point out that I find it sad that martin has to give up something he loves because of this issue but at least he knows when enough is enough and I applaud Martin for his decision. second I do know for a fact that being around certain substances can have dramatic effects on your body over a period of time in fact some substances can cause you to become allergic to them such as latex and quite possibly the chemicals in paragon can to. We all have different immune systems and all react differently to chemicals so again. I wish Martin the best and hope he can fine a resolution to the issue so he can enjoy this hobby again.
