one of these days doctors are going to start noticing the harm of butyl
or 2-butoxyethanol.

The anemia is like cinderella's other slipper

The proof of harm is the anemia that underlies all the autoimmune issues
and cancers that can show up



put degenerative disc diseas on the list of autoimmune issues, too

My letter to my Senator:

http://www.valdezlink.com/gwv/whyegbeforcauseandautism.htm
<http://www.valdezlink.com/gwv/whyegbeforcauseandautism.htm>


From: Margaret Diann - January 22, 2009 RE: harm of an organic
solvent, pesticide, poison, teratogen, neurotoxin, autoimmune & cancer
causing chemical
C6H14O2/CH3(CH2)2CH2OCH2CH2OH
Dear Senator Lisa Murkowski,
Thank you for sharing my concerns with the Dept of Defense regarding the
harm of Ethylene Glycol Monobutyl Ether or 2-butoxyethanol ... BUTYL for
short. Although the gulf war vets have many exposures, the Exxon Valdez
oil spill cleanup workers (BIOREMEDIATION workers who sprayed Inipol EAP
22) have this as their primary exposure and there were 1000 young men.
What happened to them (1989) has vital significance for medicine today.

And to today's military and to civilians as well. But the Public does
not know what happened to them. They can make no comparisons. *
<http://www.valdezlink.com/evos/afteroil.htm>

Many are dead already, just as many gulf war vets are dead. And many
others affected, too! (Non exclusive harm)

Too much exposure looks like the flu. A virus should not be suspect for
most of the 'flu symptoms.' EGBE causes one's body's immune system to
rapidly attack them. The proof that this chemical is the culprit is the
anemia of CFIDS that it causes ... but which doctors do not generally
find. (Too many things going on at the same time prevents discovery).
Butyl exposure causes infinite variations. The numbers doctors look at
can go high (with acute exposure or early on) to low (later years).

Both Senators Kennedy and Byrd would be helped if their doctors
understood THIS anemia. It is more life threatening than any other
autoimmune issue or cancer that subsequently shows up. Yes, it would be
the FATIGUE that caused Senator Kennedy's recent seizure (lack of
oxygen) and doctors should look at the red blood cells. They are not
the right type of red blood cells, as would be expected per 'the
numbers' Gulf war vet, Cesar Arreola, became dizzy with shortness of
breath after strenuous exercise. Dies 1/18/09 at age 37. I suspect he
used up the oxygen that his red blood cells had to offer, and then died
from the lack of oxygen (THE FATIGUE, THE ANEMIA) ... when the red blood
cells could not easily replace it.

I also suspect this as the most probable cause of Jett Travolta's death:
advance anemia after near death from Kawasaki syndrome when he was 2
years old (exposure was this chemical in carpet cleaning) ... would lead
to a very advance anemia years later. *

I think there may be some helps here for our Senators & others affected

<http://www.valdezlink.com/gwv/diesafterworkout2.htm#is>

The autoimmune metabolic causing chemical should also be suspect for the
cause of Autism. I was noticing in UK research that there is an
autoimmune metabolic aspect to Autism & nervous system issues would be a
part of it. The UK has better research on this chemical causing a
multitude of cancers, as well *
<http://www.valdezlink.com/pages/crackthecase.htm#these> An EVOS
worker, Richard Nagel, has looked into the French Inipol and said there
was research on what happened to those workers and that cancers were a
stand out harm. Even our President has been touched by the type of
cancers this chemical would cause, with very possible exposures to his
mom & his grandparents *
<http://www.valdezlink.com/re/anndunhamobama.htm>

There is research that shows that there is a preponderance of Autism
among gulf war vets. And since I suspect EGBE for the primary harm of
these vets .... so also do I suspect it for Autism in general *
<http://www.valdezlink.com/re/discussautism.htm> and also for the
epidemic of cancers and autoimmune metabolic issues such as Syndrome X
and diabetes (only a side effect that is easy to find).

We need to help today's Vets as they are at risk even more than those of
other war eras. We need to be looking for what is alike for every war
era from WWI, WWII, Vietnam War *
<http://www.valdezlink.com/re/achemicaltosuspect.htm> , Korean War,
Panama & Somalia conflicts, Gulf War I, Iraqi war, and that in
Afghanistan. Any and all autoimmune issues for them and for their
children (Serious birth defects from this teratogen chemical). My
condolences go out to all who have had too much exposure to this
chemical ... which also I suspect *
<http://www.valdezlink.com/gwv/alfordhad.htm> for SSG James Alford of
Karnack, TX who died last month of 'mad cow disease' ... actually the
most serious autoimmune issue that trumps even ALS, Parkinson's, MS.
www.valdezlink.com/pages/autoimmune.htm
<http://www.valdezlink.com/pages/autoimmune.htm> There are so many
autoimmune issues that some of them don't even have names yet *
<http://www.valdezlink.com/re/medh/oilycrownhair.htm>

In advance anemia you start to see very high white blood cell counts
(not likely an infection for these - an anemia sign) and what do white
blood cells do in a system that has become autoimmune? Attack even our
bones (Degenerative Disc Disease is often an autoimmune issue.) *
<http://www.valdezlink.com/re/discussdegenerativediscs.htm> I see
Senator Kennedy walking with a cane ... also our Dick Cheney, Former
Justice Rehnquist, etc

I hope doctors will consider looking at the same medical info in a new
light. I can't think of anything worse than letting this chemical
continue to harm us ... and for us to give more chemical exposures
(often even medications) hoping for help. I suppose our health care
costs could bankrupt us all by themselves. Continuing on the road of
'helps' we have been on would be a big mistake. A new direction will
definitely be in order.

Since EPA lifted all restrictions on this chemical at the lobbying of
chemical companies in 2003, I suspect EGBE should be suspect for
contributing to the rapid acceleration of global warming and the melting
of the polar ice caps. *
<http://www.valdezlink.com/re/barkingupthewrongtree.htm>

I thank you for your interest and I hope that your influence, and what
Alaska can contribute to our Nation's health information will help this
chemical from continuing to harm our soldiers and our babies & our moms
and dads and the hardworking people who are most at risk (Those who
clean, who paint, who WORK) Worst exposure is vapors in your eyes.
Everyone also needs to understand 'secondhand solvent exposure'

Beyond poisoning of our Troops and not knowing by what ... the next most
troubling issue is the damage to the children. The birth defects *
<http://www.valdezlink.com/re/vetstodayandkids.htm> , the inability to
have a full term baby (or any baby at all) ... the loss of hearing, the
loss of eyesight, loss of sense of taste and smell, the loss of touch'
... even short term memory loss. Study for class & know what you need
to know the night before, and forget 80% by the next day. There are
widespread implications for Alzheimer's for those who will need special
education. The burden upon our families ... upon our schools ... upon
our healthcare system ... and upon our Military ... should not be. Even
our pets are at risk *
<http://www.valdezlink.com/re/anothercat.htm#cat>

We need new laws of disclosure. As it is now, companies do not have to
disclose to housewives what is in the cleaning products they use. We
should consider banning this chemical and if not learn to avoid it! *
