Sudden onset 4 years ago & then add on issues:

different pigment on skin - Tingling in hands -
Difficulty walking - High Blood Pressure - Chest
pain - Palpitations - Drowziness - Vision
Problems - Weakness - Fatigue - Pain - Very low
Potassium & Sodium levels
Why?
"I'm convinced that
metabolic features (changes in
cholesterol and
lipid profile, changes in glucose uptake and
cell use,
mitochondrial diseases
and so on) are among main underestimated issue
of
2-BE," says a
French journalist
Arunas Brizgys was eventually given a
diagnosis of Acute Intermittent
Porphyria
My e-mail which I hope will reach Dr Sabates:
Dr. Felix Sabates may may like to add the info
on a chemical exposure that would cause such
health issues as Arunus Brizgys had
Because of sudden onset, it should be considered
among the many health issues caused by exposure
to 2-butoxyethanol. The cause of CFIDS and a
great deal of eye damage, diabetes & autoimmune
issues in general, birth defects, etc
Most probably he would have the 'slow cook'
variety of Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia doctors
are looking for the CFIDS population; but it
doesn't show up as they expect.

On a personal note ...

teratogen effects of poisoning of my dad during
WWII ... I have adult onset diabetes, and other
autoimmune metabolic issues. My eyesight went
