Donald Hurlburt

I was stationed at George from may 77 to Nov80 and lived in the barracks. Due to the heat drank a ton of water all time from community water fountains. Should I be concerned? Thru the years I have had periods of blackouts and have had problems controlling my urinal and bowel movements. Outside of that, I’ve been getting gout from time to time. Been taking medications for that for 23 years now, I thought it was strange as I was 34 the first time I had a gout attack and thought that was normal for older people to contract that. Gout is your kidneys not filtering the bodies waste products correctly, basically, my kidneys are starting to fail. And all the chemicals I worked with on a daily basis that is no longer in use as they are not EPA approved. The one that sticks out the most is Varsol, we used it to decrease and remove oil contamination from jet engines. Please feel free to contact me at xxx and thank you.
