This is what Sandy shared with me Her immunologist just said that the 'spikes' on her red blood cells had something to do with her chemical exposure. (They must be the immune cells attacking the red blood cells) ... autoimmune red blood cells such as 2-butoxyethanol exposure would cause

I just listed the medical dictionary's list of symptoms for hemolytic anemia here.

Well, it's understandable for 60 years ago when Pres FDR had 'the symptoms' that this chemical's harm went undetected ... by still?

All these years later & ethylene glycol monobutyl ether exposure effects is STILL going unrecognized? ... & not even recognized until an extreme version of it?

The best doctors in the nation don't know what to think about VP Dick Cheney's shortness of breath unrelated to heart concerns? It could be this chemical's effects:

The news said Cheney was on medication for a sore foot and the medication caused fluid retention that caused shortness of breath. I remember when his doctors were concerned about 'shortness of breath' a couple of months ago

They always blame what 2-butoxyethanol poisoning does on something else (That's what I suspect)

They don't know if it's this

Didn't know for Pres FDR, either, and he must have had some pretty good doctors

A 42-year-old woman I know had burning foot syndrome before she collapsed from the advanced fatigue

I faxed the following to several Senators and to the President's office,

Judiciary office (where all the action is now):

Could be part of the FATIGUE of Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction Syndrome:

The Fatigue is acquired autoimmune compensated hemolytic anemia

Other signs: www.valdezlink.com/pages/cfsclues.htm

These are symptoms of hemolytic anemia - what this chemical is said to cause:

Chills

Fatigue

Pale color

Shortness of breath

Rapid heart rate * *

Yellow skin color (jaundice)

Dark urine (indicative of blood in urine )

Red blood cells that are small-sized, fragility of membranes, etc http://www.valdezlink.com/pages/notdioxin-gwv.htm#small

Enlarged spleen *

Look for red blood cells that are small-sized; fragility of membranes

Look for trace blood in urine

Look for exposures to 2-butoxyethanol -

often shows up as 'flu-like' symptoms

I think it causes CFS, FM, CFIDS, ME ... 'gulf war syndrome' ... a lot of diabetes

Counts of red blood cells and hemoglobin can look OK,

but red blood cells must be IMMATURE - & do not function as needed to distribute oxygen & help body store & utilize iron ... needed for Red Blood Cell production. If RBCs found to be immature, lab tests need to be done manually & not by computer to adjust for this & get accurate results (especially for liver, WBCs)

Well, if our Vice President collapses from the advanced fatigue ...

they'll just call it a heart attack (not that it was) & we'll be having a funeral in our Nation

Yes, I suspect when the long list of 2-butoxyethanol is finally blamed for just a little of what it does, the US Congress with BAN it. Not the least of which is the causing of CFS, CFIDS, diabetes, NHL, overweight and a whole long list of autoimmune issues and 'syndromes' ... anything to do with glands and hormones being 'out of the normal range' high or low ... on and on and on and on.
