Vietnam vets only got 1/2 of the disability approvals they should have had. Korean vets should have had the same, plus the others they did get approved. 

 

Gulf war vets have no Presumptive list, sadly ... not even ALS which they have higher incidence of (most exposure to 2-butoxyethanol is what I think)

What happened to our soldiers during war-times came on faster, because they kept getting exposed ... but it is not a different exposure than other military time periods nor than what civilians get, too

Check these things first ... signs of EGBE exposure

Many ailments are exponentially increasing: Autism in 1 of 166 births; Cerebral Palsy in 1 of 800 births. Suspect Diabetes, Leukodystrophies ... many, many autoimmune metabolic issues. How can we keep going on like this?

Treat our soldiers better that's what I say.

More thoughts shared with a Cushing's group

Do those with CFIDS, 'gulf war syndrome' vets and Vietnam vets 'look alike?'

At what cost, war? How many Americans have died in wars?
How many were later lost ... 'to the syndrome?'

The harm of 2-butoxyethanol is unrecognized *

Our gulf war vets are asking for help ... ... ...Contact Congress

In this post I refer only to web pages I have written; 

because I have a different view, and it is my way of sharing it.

I served in several defoliated jungle locations of the III Corps area of South Vietnam(69-70). Before I went I fathered two healthy children. ( My son was born one month before I went to Nam) My wife and I came from large families, and our wish was to have more children when I came back home. In '71 at Ft. Gordon, my wife miscarried at 4 months due to a grossly deformed embryo, and also had to have surgery. After I separated from service, my wife carried for almost six months and lost another. (Stillbirth, grossly deformed embryo, '72) She suffered great physical pain with these pregnancies and lost the ability to ever have children again. This was devastating to us, more so to her than me. I told her we were lucky to have two healthy children, but she really never got over the losses. Her personality changed and she started to blame me for bringing back something from Nam that caused the situation, even tho we knew nothing about agent orange in '72. This was only the beginning..... of my voyage thru a hell of sorrow, tears, heartbreak, illness, pain, suffering and guilt that continues to this day.... because of the effects of agent orange and PTSD.

I am very sorry to hear of your loss of children, loss of health, loss of marriage.

I think the other chemical in the mix is the cause of these things. A member of patriotfiles.com shared with me that the AO was mixed with jet fuel so it would adhere to the foliage. JP 2-6 are labeled as pesticides and have the warnings of 2-butoxyethanol (old name is ethylene glycol monobutyl ether)

This chemical is a teratogen (harms the developing child) a neurotoxin, too. These other nervous system damage issues are often listed with PTSD, but is more probably a poisoning of the Central Nervous System

Short term memory loss
Difficulty concentrating
Personality changes to 'grumpy' - Extreme Irritability
Difficulty sleeping at night - Sleep apnea? Narcolepsy in the opposite extreme?
All the time Depression
Suicidal Tendencies
Mimics true psychiatric disorder

And more

The fatigue clues for autoimmune hemolytic anemia:
Chills
Fatigue
Pale color
Shortness of breath
Rapid heart rate
Yellow skin color (jaundice)
Dark urine
Enlarged spleen

One of our Exxon Valdez oil spill workers who was around the Inipol EAP 22 a great deal ...shared that his child was born dead and deformed.

A vietnam Vet who lives in Kenny Lake, Alaska area has a normal child born before his service, and since a child born with Autism; a child born with growth abnormalities.

If your wife's personality changed, she could have been exposed to the 2-butoxyethanol second hand. As you breath it out ... she can get it in her eyes. Looks like the flu with too much exposure. The diarrhea is what I get when someone comes around overexposed ...a lady with lupus shared with me that that happened to her when she was in the grocery store aisle one time. Doctors were clueless when it happened to President Eisenhower

Other lost children  robin

I even suspect the leukemia that George Bush's sister died of could have been Sr Bush bringing the fumes of jet fuel back to his home. It could have been there somewhere.

This portrait of Pauline Robinson Bush is on display at the George Bush Presidential Library in College Station, Texas.

Birth: Dec. 20, 1949
Death: Oct. 11, 1953

Mrs. Bush noticed something strange in her daughter. Robin woke one morning and was undecided as to what to do. She stated that she might just lie on the grass and watch the cars go by or maybe just stay in bed. Mrs. Bush noticed that this was strange behavior for a three year old.
Doesn't this look like the mental disorientation that a chemical such as 2-butoxyethanol would cause? It does to me



I strongly suspect Pres FDR died of it; it was not polio, by the way, that he had, but now is viewed as an autoimmune issue similar to MS. In the chronic stage, it is CIDP He had Guillain-Barre syndrome (An autoimmune action on the Nervous system that causes paralysis)

Since this is the diabetes-causing, flu-causing, CFIDS-causing chemical, autoimmune-causing chemical, I suspect it starts the immune system attacking the hypothalamus ... and then the red blood cells.

Why doctors don't find the fatigue is the bigger question. They could if they looked into all the variations this chemical would cause along the way: red blood cells that are ragged & beat up in early months ... to small-sized later on

Why FATIGUE?


Blood in urine is also a strong clue

Check more in the blood
& keep copies of all your blood work

What is normal for you?
Compare yourself to yourself
Maybe you will see a pattern
men's chart  ...  women's chart
Stop taking all the meds that are not helping you

Avoid this chemical - or what ails you gets worse
AND take glyconutrient food supplements ...

I must share that this chemical should be suspect for the premature or early births; for jaundice that babies get; for SIDS. It is the cause of much infertility.

For men suspect an autoimmune issue: spontaneous infertility 
 

Spontaneous Infertility is an Autoimmune Condition

I never heard of this before; but it would fit the pattern of 2-butoxyethanol harm & if so, stopping the autoimmune function may restore?  *  

*   Sperm count dropping?   *   Affected by pesticides  *


I think if a system was not autoimmune, more children would be born healthy

High or low blood pressure;  high or low body temp

Same for  lungs filling up with fluid, or the soft tissue sarcomas in lungs  Add herniated discs &  lungs filling up with fluid to Presumptive list *

Autoimmune issues - not related to smoking

 

AO is the buzz term for this chemical's poisoning ... not Dioxin per se

But that's just my opinion

 

I do think that glyconutrients offer best hope for help in causing normal immune system  function

But that is my own feeling on the matter
