Doctor, Some helps in diagnosis of unexplainable fatigue (red blood damage?)

I am so hopeful that doctors who understand these things will help you and the many others even in the general population who are harmed by this chemical. It is in many, many products and the public is not suspecting the serious harm it can cause.

March 24 is the 15 year 'anniversary' of the Exxon Valdez oil spill

2-butoxyethanol is the chemical of harm for the Exxon Valdez oil spill cleanup workers; also a chemical that Gulf War Troops were exposed to.

12% by weight in Inipol EAP 22 -
the 'bioremediation' compound of Exxon's Experiment
also in Corexit at 38% NOT SAFE (somewhere in the military today?) Jet Fuel?

I feel that if anyone cared what happened to the Exxon Valdez oil spill cleanup workers in the first place, there never would have been a 'gulf war syndrome'
