Would
appreciate YOUR input! I've been hoping to get the attention
of Dr.
Ben Carson
who is in the Washington DC area. He has a good philosophy of physician
care &
is a top neurosurgeon as well.
It was a very sad thing to hear that the emergency room is LESS
responsive to Chad
when he shares that he is a Gulf War Vet. Very sad indeed. Probably
they have learned over the years they don't know how to help.
If you move to a new area, ask the nurses and people in the community
which doctor is a humble doctor. That way, the doctor will be more
open to input from specialists (You may need a blood specialist and an
endocrinologist and a toxicologist or someone who understands chemical
harm to humans & that kind of approach to health, too -less
chemicals/medications in future, as much as possible, etc) and to hear
'God's input, too'
Before you set an appointment, ask the nurse to ask the doctor if
he/she would be interested in working with you on this; that you have
some information on past history and a probable chemical you were
exposed to; that you need more than a cursory look at the blood; and
would they be willing to consult with experts and look at some
information on the chemical?
Fill out this form: gws_too_much_chemicals.htm
Get the list on the 33 health concerns of Gulf War Syndrome Vets, and
let the doctor know which ones you have concerns about. For sure ask
that they check everything about your health that the blood can tell
them (kidney and liver function, too). Bring with you all past blood
work from before as well as after your military service. Sometimes
borderline OK for the general public on red blood cells is OK; but for
you it may NOT be OK.
How do we find a doctor that wants to look into this? Who wants to
help?
It is obviously not 'business as usual' If they're not interested, it
would be best that they refer you to someone who is, right? generic.htm#interested
Point is, you need to be involved in your health care decisions ...
especially since this is not an 'easy fix'
A good doctor will not feel threatened, this is the coming trend.
There is some good information and medical research, 2003,
here that you and your doctor will be interested in.
Here are more helps for doctors regarding this chemical. MD_helps.htm
If you really do eliminated 2-butoxyethanol type chemicals as harming
you, great, but I would be sure to check the blood thoroughly before
heading on to other possibilities. complete_blood_check.htm
look_further.htm
There are known sources of 2-butoxyethanol and diethylene glycol
monobutyl ether. What are they? ... and what might be some
unknown sources: gun cleaners and degreasers; bug spray with those
horrible warnings of Personal Protective Equipment Level IV; Navy jet
fuels JP-3, JP-4, JP-5 and JP-6 declare pesticide ingredient USEPA/OPP
PC Code: 063515 (This will affect military personnel before and after
the Gulf War time period.) 'Cisero'
Before I knew about your group, I shared these thoughts with Exxon
Valdez oil spill cleanup workers: no_fear.htm
One fellow
shared with me, "Maybe I don't want to know what's wrong."
To anyone with those thoughts I say, "Now, now; your family loves
you; the sooner you take care of yourself, the better off you'll be:
catch problems early rather than late, right?"
Troops
were exposed to these:
pesticides, poisons, solvents, so it is reasonable to have yourself
checked for the harm they can cause. http://www.valdezlink.com/gulfweborg.htm
Feel
like you're in 'checkmate?'
Just remember, the King has one more move! God still does miracles!

Are there any helps for you here? changes.htm
There are suggestions on MDs who are also expert in toxicology or
chemical effects - for your doctor to consult with. Other
recommendations?
