cleaning products & dizzyness
My whole family is filled with clean freaks. Basically, we are the family with perfectly clean carpets, no dust or mold anywhere. You could eat off the floor.
Anyway, my Mom usually does the cleaning & today she was cleaning the bathrooms with all her cleaning stuff. She got really dizzy & had to sit down & she was crying. I want to help but I have the same symptoms. She had brain surgery last summer so now she's super paranoid about headaches & dizzyness.
My question is how can we prevent this happening in the future? Is there anything we should or should not use?
We mostly use lysol products with bleach [I think] but no actual bleach or chlorine.
Thanks a lot!

Maybe give some free advice about: Cleaning?
Open all the windows when you're cleaning. Pretty much anyone will get dizzy after inhaling Lysol long enough. Any cleaner, really, should be used with really good ventilation, even if it's winter. Just turn the heat off in the room you're cleaning.
It's possible that you just inhaled more than usual, and that's why you both had the symptoms. If you normally pour the cleaner in a bucket with water [to dilute it, like floor cleaner] try mixing it outside. The worst of the fumes won't linger in your house that way. And turn on a fan or two- it'll keep the air circulating :)

I'm not sure if this is it, but sometimes when you breath in to much of thoses chemicals it can make you feel dizzy and give you a headache, you just need fresh air, and be careful with the amount you are using and try not to inhale it all. And your mom might be extra sensitive to it. im not exactly sure, but i do know that if you inhale to much of that cleaning stuff you will get headaches, and feel dizzy.
hope i helped :]
