"There
is another cause of flu
symptoms that is very
serious. Exposure to glycol
ether.

There would be blood in
urine from the anemia it
causes: AIHA and there would
be shortness of breath,
rapid heart beat, abnormal
body temperature, abnormal
blood pressure, abnormal
blood sugar (autoimmune
hypothalamus). "The chills"
is also often found and
serious HEADACHES and memory
loss. Body's immune system
turns autoimmune & ignores
the real job it is supposed
to be doing. High white
blood cells can show up as
advanced anemia (not an
infection per se). Whole
blood transfusion can do
wonders. In the extreme,
however, organs can shut
down." 10-19-09
There was an El Paso
gulf war vet who was doing
strenuous exercise for a new
job he wanted. He died & I
suspect it was from lack of
oxygen the red blood cells
could deliver. There is a
serious anemia, autoimmune
hemolytic anemia, that goes
undetected for those with
too much exposure to glycol
ether. I suspect this is the
cause of the odd symptoms of
'CFIDS, CFS, FM, gulf war
syndrome.' There is
also a 'second hand' solvent
exposure.
* If you
ran in the wrong place in
the race, the expelled
breath of those nearby, if
they were poisoned by glycol
ether ... would be getting
in the eyes of those nearby.

Thank you for your comments
about exposure to glycol ethers
and subsequent anemia. The
scientific literature seems to
support your concerns. Thanks
for contacting the National
Institute of Environmental
Health Sciences!
Dear Diann, "In Chinese
medicine, fall is the weak time
of the year for the lungs. The
other organs must help get the
lungs strong like a child/parent
relationship. A lot of people
have seasonal colds right now
with the change in weather. My
daughter calls it the piglet flu
as opposed to swine flu. Could
it also coincide with being
indoors and less air
circulation? Every store, gym,
etc. is using cleaners now on
door knobs, shopping carts, gym
equipment to fight H1N1. Could
the cleaners be causing the flu
like symptoms? Could children
actually be dying from the
cleaners? I don't know but it is
an intriguing concept." Mr
P
"Please consider
staying away from those vaccines
- a number of people in the
Illinois area took that new
vaccine and wound up just as
sick from the shot as they would
have been if they had simply had
the flu." Mr S

2-butoxyethanol * * exposure can lead to hemolytic anemia. Other Glycol Ethers, too?
8 signs of hemolytic anemia per medical dictionary (AIHA or IMHA)
Chills
Fatigue
Pale color
Shortness of breath
Rapid heart rate * *
Yellow skin color (jaundice)
Dark urine (Blood in Urine)
Enlarged spleen
