Are Brain Tumors regarless of
location considered Soft Tissue Sarcomas?
AND is there an autoimmune aspect to it?
Other things like Diabetes and Thyroid
issues and secondary cancers can be suspect
for the teratogen pesticide chemical:
2-butoxyethanol
This has to be 'the other
chemical' in the mix for Vietnam Vets
Dioxin is not a match for
their major list of harm
Are these cancers a
'cluster?' If so, are they all that
rare?
Soft tissue
sarcoma. Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
Hodgkin's disease ... Brain
tumors.
Looks like what
this chemical would do
