A chemical exposure is harming too many of our citizens since the 1930s

Could one chemical be harming people for 75 years

& Go Unnoticed?

Arlen Specter? Brain tumor and now Hodgkin's cancer?

Many others & the military, too since WWII?

And this Navy man with 'the symptoms' starting in 1992

US Rep Matsui? FDR? YOU or a loved one?

Is 62 an OK age to die?http://www.valdezlink.com/pages/62years.htm

What chemical exposures could cause such?

besides 2-butoxyethanol?

Corexit is not safe to put in water for oil spill clean up nor for DoD

This chemical has been harming people since its invention in the 1930s ... harmed FDR? Vietnam Vet? Korean Vet? 'gulf war syndrome' vet ... today's troops, too.

Harms the public - CFS, CFIDS, ME, FM ... depending on which sub sets of harm you want to group together

Our Nation's Health

Why doesn't the USA know that this chemical causes an autoimmune immune system? Do you paint?

2-butoxyethanol chemical causes lots of harm.

It affects so many parts of the body: joints, cartilage, blood, immune system, nervous system, could be any of the*glands/organs, kidneys, liver ... a lot of things. Even 'heart attacks' and 'stroke' may actually be from advance stages of autoimmune hemolytic anemia ... And seizures. And paralysis.

Other things that would most likely show up with it, would be this for fatigue:

Chills
Fatigue
Pale color
Shortness of breath
Rapid heart rate * *
Yellow skin color (jaundice)
Dark urine
Enlarged spleen
Eyes burning & hurting (with initial exposure - flu symptoms, too)
Red blood cells immature
Blood in Urine (part of autoimmune hemolytic anemia)

In addition there are many times, off and on, Horrible Headaches!

The Central Nervous System damage gets the most attention, things like:
Difficulty Concentrating
Short Term Memory Loss
Difficulty Sleeping
Constantly Irritable
Depression
Suicidal Tendencies

Mimics true psychiatric disorder

Way down the road things like brain tumors and leukemias can show up. thankfully not everyone gets everything it does. Stop exposure to 2-butoxyethanol & related chemicals (n-butyl ethers) & you may help prevent the more serious harm.

A group of things to consider

Seizures? I think that it could be from lack of oxygen

The chemical I've learned about

It took me 3 years to learn what I have learned ... Even SIDS and brain tumors could be part of what 2-butoxyethanol can do - Outline

I believe the primary problem is an autoimmune problem with the immune system

GWVRP Question: "Has anyone out there had problems with "false memories" associated after or alongside the seizures? My husband would have a seizure and after wards it was like it took out a large chunk of his memory. He began having memories of things that I know never happened in real life." Heatbird April, 2005

It still amazes me that although 2-butoxyethanol and its complex version, diethylene glycol monobutyl ether are on the list of solvents and pesticides the gulf war troops were exposed to ...

And although they do all the symptoms that I've heard mentioned as symptoms, no one gives it a second thought.

I think you should!

Have you thought of how similar your ailments are to those of Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction?

Have you thought of how similar your ailments are to that of the Vietnam Vet?

& those who became ill at end of WWII?

Some things to consider

Yes, memory loss ... part of the central nervous system damage it can cause:
