Traces of blood in urine?
 

I've heard comments from the Exxon Valdez oil spill cleanup workers that they have blood in their urine - one said the tests show that he has blood in his urine with each yearly physical

(This group has KNOWN exposure to 2-butoxyethanol; for gulf war vets it is just one possible exposure)

At first I thought, oh, you must still be being exposed to this chemical, and your red blood cells are dying off prematurely - as happens with hemolytic anemia (AUTOIMMUNE)

Then, a couple with severe joint problems shared with their specialist this info (on a cause of fatigue often overlooked)... which suggests that the 'retic ratio' test would show too many immature red blood cells. Well, the specialist was very interested in this information; however, instead of ordering the blood test, he had another urine test ordered. Was he looking for 'blood in urine?'

I think so.

So, blood in urine with this group must mean that there is an ongoing process of red blood cells being destroyed by the immune system ... and there will be at least traces of blood in urine ... ongoing (!?)

This chemical causes lots and lots of harm; many, many ailments; however, the reason I focus on the blood damage is because it is foudational; there is something in the blood that will prove its harm, whereas all the other things will vary from person to person & doctors think, "Oh, it could have been caused from anything"

At least in the area of the blood damage, you should all look alike

2008 helps:

Be sure to avoid BUTYL, as I suspect that is the teratogen chemical that was the cause of the primary harm to gulf war vets, and vets of other war eras, and civilians, too

Too many things going on differently than the 'norm' so doctors and researchers have largely been stumped, as one variable only ... does not work

I suspect the CFIDS, CFS, FM, ME assortment of AUTOIMMUNE ISSUES is what you are dealing with

Find the ANEMIA, it is your most serious health issue; and the prove that BUTYL or a chemical like 2-butoxyethanol is your chemical of harm

I think there is help with glyconutrients

The Proper View of CFIDS, CFS, FM, ME

Do Gulf War Vets & Vietnam Vets & Korean Vets have Idiopathic Anemia? Autoimmune Hemolytic ANEMIA Signs: (Why is it hard to find?) * *

• Chills 8
• Fatigue Find AIHA or IMHA, THE FATIGUE of CFIDS
• Pale color
• Shortness of breath
• Rapid heart rate **
• Yellow skin color (jaundice)
• Dark urine (indicative of blood in urine - never dismiss this! Stop exposure immediately!)
• Red blood cells that are small-sized, fragility of membranes, etc
• Abnormal Peripheral Blood test/s
• Red Blood Cells 'stick' together - AUTOAGGLUTINATION *
• Enlarged spleen *
• Elevated Sedimentation Rate *
• COOMB's Test? Skip it
• VERY HIGH WHITE BLOOD CELL COUNTS * *

These are symptoms of hemolytic anemia - what this chemical is said to cause.
(AUTOIMMUNE?)
Autoimmune Central Nervous System Signs: Loose your temper easily? Central Nervous System *

• Short term memory loss
• Difficulty concentrating
• Personality changes to 'grumpy' - Extreme Irritability
• Difficulty sleeping at night - Sleep apnea? Narcolepsy in the extreme?
• All-the-time Depression
• Suicidal Tendencies
• Mimics true psychiatric disorder - Paranoia

• (PTSD)

May affect multiple other body systems & organs

Hormones out of range - High or Low - Especially the Pituitary

Horrible Headaches

Ask your doctor for a 'check list' of Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction Syndrome symptoms.

It should 'look' like the list above.

LOOK at the red blood cells and fully describe them.

You should have many AUTOIMMUNE ISSUES. Whether they are the same or not is irrelevant.

Central Nervous System damage also
