Pituitary Tumors. Does anyone know anything about pituitary tumors? My boyfriend has a 3mm one on the right side of his pituitary gland. The doctor just wants to observe it but not do anything. His cortisol levels are low but his DHEA levels are high..... He's had Erectile Dysfunction for over 2 years now.
Thanks Celia
Listen in to an e-mail conversation I had yesterday with Dr. Sherman, she states, "I wrote a book, Life's Delicate Balance - Causes and Prevention of Breast Cancer. The chemicals, solvents, pesticides, pharmaceuticals and nuclear materials that cause breast cancer also cause cancer of the prostate and testicles in men, and a variety of cancers in children. My book was selling well in its' 3rd printing when the publisher took it out of print. Was it because I criticized these various industries?"

I shared with Dr. Sherman about 2-butoxyethanol ...
to which she replied, "Bad Chemical" On 3/27/06, Janette Sherman wrote:
& I replied: That's for sure!
The only chemical exposure that the gulf war syndrome vets have (after oil) that the Exxon Valdez oil spill cleanup workers have ... is 2-butoxyethanol. It is also one of the chemical exposures that has NOT been studied by the VA
I have gathered mostly vets' comments that look to me like what the pattern of EGBE exposure would look like http://www.valdezlink.com
I suspect it causes Erectile Dysfunction ... not the high bad cholesterol, the diabetes, the high blood pressure that often goes along with ... The pituitary gland looks as though it is very strongly affected; but then hormonal levels can be high or low .. www.valdezlink.com/scenario.htm affects adrenals, thyroid ... probably glands that regulate temperature, etc. It is an autoimmune causing chemical. And the prove is the fatigue that it causes: CFIDS Thankfully not everyone gets everything this chemical does, but for those with CFIDS (those with their own primary exposure) the fatigue would be acquired compensated autoimmune hemolytic anemia ... & it's been hiding out.
Lots of things are autoimmune, as you know.
Our town of Valdez was largely affected by the second hand exposure, too. Our people have been dying off from various cancers, brain tumors, 'diabetes' kidney and liver failures since 1989. Especially those who were around the workers ... tending bar, in the small tax offices, chiropractic office, etc.
I think we could get an NIH grant to find out the true epidemiology info for Valdez & our Native Villages around the State who sent workers. They have expressed interest in looking into this chemical, if I would work with a researcher.
Because we are small ... we know who our people are. One man died in Idaho one year after he moved from Valdez, and his cancers: LUNG, LIVER, LYMPH, BONE ... are listed with Idaho.
I know about 5 workers who were bioremediation workers (the Experiment that Exxon monitored with Coast Guard & their own). But when EPA scratched that for future use ... Exxon sold one 3 times worse to the DEPT of Defense, Australia, Karachi.
(Port of Karachi said OK to health studies for their people, but I'm sure they don't know how to go abut it) Where is Corexit in the military today? (It is 38% 2-butoxyethanol; not just 12% like Inipol EAP 22 was)
Vapors in one's eyes is a serious exposure, and the researchers are finding the harm of this chemical without checking this out. I know of a handyman who just worked for an afternoon painting a small bathroom & his normal sex life ended that day.
I had a Col in the USAF contact me and say he only cleaned the bathtub for 15 minutes with Simple Green & he has had trouble breathing. Yesterday a man shared that he has been diagnosed with bladder cancer, and he used Simple green to clean his air brushes ... which put a fine mist into the air.
A lady in Australia feels she was harmed by this chemical and has been looking into it. She insists that 1/10 of 1% is the maximum strength for 2-butoxyethanol in a product. Simple Green is 6% & they give a lousy excuse to say that it is non-toxic. It is used exclusively in our nation's penitentiaries. Martha?
With no warnings of any kind, Spot Shot Carpet cleaner is 25% 2-butoxyethanol. Harmed a couple of cats. Probably some babies, too, if the truth be known. SIDS?
What about Mesothelioma? What about Vioxx? What about smoking getting the blame for lung cancer? I think that it is primarily the 2-butoxyethanol that would cause the harm these other things get blamed for ... and that the reason other things get the blame, as usual, is that they are dealing with populations that are prone to strokes/cancers anyway as the 2-butoxyethanol harmed are ... AND attorneys are looking for the 'deep pocket' and have clouded the truth. In fact THEY do not care about the truth.
