| Subject: | Sobering issue |  |
| Date: | Jun 6, 2003 |
| From: | David Nickels | |
| I just got some scary/sobering information from my doctor yesterday regarding my health. A routine physical and the accompanying bloodwork/tests show that I have liver damage. After the doctor questioned me about what could have caused the problems... IV drug use... no, alcoholism...no; blood transfusions...no; exposure to chemicals...no; WAIT YES! In one form of another I have used pretty toxic chemical products on a daily basis for years and years. Glues, paints, thinners, solvents, etc. I think I am pretty safe with my modelling in that I have good ventillation, take breaks, airbrush outdoors, use acrylics alot for brush painting indoors, etc. Still, now I have an unaccountable health problem. I will keep you all posted as to what transpires. Just something you might want to think about yourself. |
