Memorandum
To: Whom it may concern
From:  Don Stewart
Date:  16 January, 2018.
Background
Suggestions have been put forward that Mr Stewart has a skin disorder caused by heavily diluted cleaning chemicals.  The condition pre-dates his current job by 50 years.  Refer attached medical records and reports of Mr Stewart's long struggle with a mysterious and hitherto still undiagnosed condition.
Mr Stewart's medical record for his years spent in Dunedin (November 1962 to January 1979) are lost or perhaps misplaced.  Medical records for his history in England (November 1953 to October 1962) are also unavailable.  They presumably are stored in England unless also lost or misplaced from transfer to Dunedin.  In effect his official medical records begin from his history at the Karori Medical Centre held by Dr Myrta Kenny since circa August 1979.
Between circa May 2006 and June 2009, Mr Stewart was also enrolled at a medical centre in Bloomsbury, central London where his diabetes was first diagnosed in June 2006.  Later (8/11/2011), in Wellington NZ, the diabetes was described as a "latent auto-immune" diabetic situation.  Apart from his research programme, the next main priority for Mr Stewart’s sojourn in various bases in London (circa 2004-9) was to see if he could get a proper diagnosis and perhaps relief for his struggle with an itching condition that by then had replaced his earlier acute difficulties with hay fever in New Zealand, mainly in Dunedin, between 1962 and the early 1980's.
As Mr Stewart began working with personal computers at his office (US Embassy, Wellington) the so-called 'eczema' or itching became chronic in circa 1987-88 where he was surrounded by offices with lots of electronic equipment being used in them.  At this point, electro-magnetic issues came to be suspected as a factor (refer attached history of the problem written in the year 2001).  In early 1992, Mr Stewart resigned from his job at the Embassy because there was no relief for the itching that pockmarked his arms.  After that, the itching remained problematic and very annoying and later again forced him to resign from his custodial role, again on poor health grounds, at the Wellington Jewish Community Centre in 2002.
After a respite for a couple of years in London (circa 2007-9), the condition gradually returned in New Zealand from about early 2010 and has remained ever since at differing levels of intensity or acuteness.
Doctors have no idea what is causing the trouble.  One dermatologist suggested that some trauma early in life may have caused the various conditions Mr Stewart  has suffered (intense hay fever, eczema-itching and possibly "latent"-diabetes).  In London, the medical centre said, "let's solve the diabetes problem first then look at the itching problem" (in June 2006).  The hay fever is gone, diabetes has long been under good control but there is no relief nor diagnosis in sight for this itching condition.
Attachments:
(1)  Brief report to the US Embassy on Mr Stewart's overall health, dated 23/10/87.  
(2)  A review of Mr Stewart's medical circumstances concerning the long-running itching problem written in the wake of a newspaper article in the DominionPost (6 March. 2001).
(3)  "Biochemistry Report" investigating possible allergenic sources for or causes of the itching (December, 2002).
(4)  Application form to join Guy's Drug Research Unit Survey, Southwark, London, for people with extreme 'eczema' conditions.  Guy's Hospital responded that Mr Stewart’s  problem was "not sufficiently acute" for their trials (4/5/2006).
(5)  June 2012 invoice from the NZ Dermatology & Skin Cancer Centre, Wellington, for its attempt to look into the condition.  Its medicaments also failed.  This is where the statement was made that the problem could be related to some long-ago trauma for which there are two or three candidates perhaps:
(a)  Trauma as a result of emergency caesarian birth followed by the Mother's inability to breast-feed;
(b)  Trauma resulting from Vaccinations received in England circa  1955-58 possibly for concerns about overseas travel Mr Stewart’s parents had to undertake in those days but also for things like polio, smallpox etc;
(c)  Impact of two journeys across the world having some hitherto little understood serious negative impacts on an already impaired immune system *.
(*)  UK-NZ return by ocean-going liner through Panama Canal (1956) on the Rangitoto and Corinthic and UK-NZ via Suez Canal on the Oriana (late 1962).
