The IDC-10 code for MCS
We know from a letter sent by Dr. Ursula Küppers of the DIMDI (The Deuth Institute for the Scientific Documentation and Medical Information) to a patient that MCS is classified in the International Code of Disease ICD-10-GM. In particular it is listed under the chapter:
T78.4... Allergies, not precisely qualified;
Chapter 19 (Injuries, Poisonings, and other injuries with external causes) Sezione T66-T78 (Altri e non precisati danni attraverso cause esterne)
There is no any classification for MCS under the Chapter 5 (psychic and behavioural problems).
