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.  Exxon tested urine for blood at each shift change for the bioremediation workers.  Exxon knew the research on 2-butoxyethanol (in Inipol EAP 22) caused hemolytic anemia.

(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 foundational; 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
