Years ago...in 1970 I worked for a division/plant of Sylvania in San Carlos CA and as workers we use to dip our fingers and hands (unprotected)in TCE every day.

I have often pondered where some of my alergy and food sensitivities and stuff came from which I have no recollection of having prior to then.

I wonder, is there a test for TCE to find out if one has elevated levels in their body? I will have to google this one.

My unprofessional opionion suggests that TCE MAY cause memory loss, not allergies......

This sound pretty series to me!

Let me know what you find out about that 1-1-1 Trichloroethane... I once worked in a place where we used it to clean aluminum. It would leave a funny taste in your mouth when you touched it or got it on your hands, so we would eat a candy when we used it.

I was always afraid to go out and see what it will cause later in life...
