There is no doubt this would be an extreme hard limit for me but an understandable one. I have enough problems with asthma
and bronchial disorders in which I cough uncontrollably to the gag stage. On top of that is something I developed a few years
ago called vasovagel syncope in which, during this uncontrollable coughing fit, I literally cut off the blood supply to my brain and
pass out. (Knock yourself out take on a new meaning, doesn't it?) And I don't do this just once. It is a recurring, repetitive thing.
When I have a bad bout of this I am swigging down codeine (cough medicine) like it's water.I therefore have a horror of anything
coming near my mouth or nose that might contribute to these problems and over which I have no control. I would be too afraid
all this would happen and I would choke on or drown in my own vomit before anyone realized what was happening and did
anything. I don't even like to look at pictures with hoods in them. HUGE TURN-OFF.
