Gulf War Syndrome - a Multi Faceted Problem
The below 2 chemicals are listed as solvents the Gulf War Troops 1990-1991 were exposed to
C6H14O2/CH3(CH2)2CH2OCH2CH2OH CAS
number 00111-76-2 2-butoxyethanol Ethylene Glycol Monobutyl Ether
Diethylene Glycol Monobutyl Ether 2-(2-Butoxyethoxy)ethanol
Hmm... the proprietary ingredient of the military's gun cleaner just say linear hydrocarbon, do you think it might be one of these?
If so the troops have been exposed to it many times in repetitive use in the last 30 years (Wear goggles and chemical retardant gloves!)

The troops were exposed to these (What were the exposures?) There are also some unobvious ones.
All by themselves these chemicals cause
all of the symptoms of gulf war syndrome
This is how you test for it www.valdezlink.com/acute.htm
and keep in mind the WHOLE picture
I want to be involved in this study.
The blood will not lie; the gulf
war vets (and a whole lot of the USA population in the last 50 years)
are harmed by these chemicals.
Valdez, ALASKA has a new hospital.
We could dedicate a wing to this ongoing research. As
far as that goes, vets can go to
their local clinic blood lab and ask for these tests: Retic;
comments of a lab tech of the red blood cells; and
survey on these www.valdezlink.com/generic.htm#8
and these http://www.valdezlink.com/acute-hematology-overview.htm
You won't believe it, but the blood was
damaged from day one and underlies all the other health damage.
You can't use some simplistic version of check for hemolytic anemia
... you have to look at a broader range & be more all inclusive in
your research. Hoping something like this never happens to
anyone again www.valdezlink.com/chad_shares.htm#chad
We have poisoned our own people for the
last 50 years and especially the troops in wartime, with too much
exposure to 2-butoxyethanol in our cleaning and degreasers and
pesticides

More things these chemicals do:
Eyes? Blurry vision? Sensitive to light? Please have eyesight checked by an ophthalmologist. There is concern for holes in retina and eventually being declared 'legally blind' Same symptoms as spouse. There is such a thing as second hand solvent exposure - not contagious, but 2nd handedly exposed. Note this study www.valdezlink.com/solvent_studies.htm#story Just last week we had our town chiropractor die of melanoma liver cancer. In 1992 he had survived melanoma eye cancer. My theory is that he had a lot of contact in 1989 with those of the Exxon Valdez oil spill cleanup: cheek to cheek (breathing same breath) and skin to skin in doing his profession. If they tested enough in the blood, they could know for sure; but I don't know of anyone who has had the thorough blood info checked ... because docs don't know that they should be looking there. www.valdezlink.com/complete_blood_check.htm You should know that they did not find his cancer by conventional means. Liver tests were turning up OK. They had to insert a camera at the area of his naval and when they did, they found that he was FULL of cancer. 1-16-04 |
