| C6H14O2/CH3(CH2)2CH2OCH2CH2OH | | Eyes Burning? Diarrhea? Flu-like symptoms? FATIGUE! | Dear Dr Reg ... and other doctors: The central issue of the chemical exposure I've looked into is, "Why does research say it causes hemolytic anemia, yet it is not found by the doctors of those with exposure?" 2-butoxyethanol causes an autoimmune immune system, first I believe towards the hypothalamus, then against the red blood cells ... and on and on (diabetes, leukemias, brain tumors, ALS, soft tissue sarcomas ... headaches ... all types and all locations) Research says it targets the liver and kidneys, all glands and organs and body systems are likely at risk as well * Those with CFIDS are told by their doctors that there is nothing wrong with them, that they are faking the fatigue, the dizziness, etc. I'm wondering whether there may be oxygen there (hemoglobin) but it can't be utilized by the body ... There may be iron there or Vit B or many things, but can not be utilized by the body? With your heart to help and your medical background, maybe you could help out the military (they have this chemical exposure in common) Can you help us all? http://groups.msn.com/Avoid2-BEforHealth-MM/helpusall.msnw | Why check 2-butoxyethanol? ... cause of harm to Exxon Valdez oil spill cleanup workers? and to Gulf War Vets, too?
