Guest guest Posted September 26, 2003 Report Share Posted September 26, 2003 Hi Y'all, I was just wondering if anyone has heard of a link between PCB exposure and fibromyalgia. My husband has just been diagnosed with fibro after a long list of symptoms occured and this has been going on for years. Years ago, he was exposed to PCB's on his job(way before they knew how harmful they were). I can't seem to find anything through an internet search- but I may be searching with the wrong info. Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 26, 2003 Report Share Posted September 26, 2003 Hi , That's weird. I used to live in Waukegan, Illinois, and our water came from Lake Michigan, through the harbor. About 20 years after I moved there from California, they found the PCB's in the harbor and removed them over a period of a few years. You've got me curious!
