I need some help
I
have been doing a lot of
research lately on the internet
to get answers on Gulf War
Syndrome. I served one tour in
Afghanistan on 02 and 2 in Iraq
04 and 05. Since coming home in
December I started showing odd
health problems. It all came to
a peak in July when it felt like
I was having a heart attack.
Being 29 and in excellent shape
I was freaked out and confused.
Since that time my health has
deteriorated. Everyday I am
having chest pains, difficulty
breathing, muscle and joint
pains, and fatigue. I also was
experiencing difficulty with
balance and falling over.. that
also got worse. Two weeks ago I
completely passed out and then a
week ago I started having all
out seizures. The two times I
have been to the ER the docs
just look at me like I am
retarded. I have been trying to
get into the VA to see a doc but
that has been a joke and from
what I seen recently they don't
want to support us vets either.
I found a Dr. Garth Nicolson on
the internet. He has been doing
research on GWS since the
original war. I started
corresponding with him and he
gave me a lot of information
showing that a lot of time GWS
is a microbial bacterial
infection in the mycoplasm
family. I took all this research
to my doctor and he finally
seemed to be concerned. I have
an appointment tomorrow to do an
EEG for the seizures and then my
family doc is going to do the
blood work and have it sent to
Dr. Nicolson.
I
was never ill before serving so
this has been a real scary time
for me. I work as a field tech
for Tmobile and driving is a
vital part of my job so I am
worried now with the seizures I
am going to lose my license.

Gulf
war syndrome vets?
Ask your doctor to check the
blood work manually ... and
find out all he/she can
about the red blood cells. I
suspect you are dealing with
exposure to 2-butoxyethanol
which has been a problem
down through the decades
&before that in periods of
war. Bomb fumes in your eyes
The fatigue I suspect is
approaching ... or full
blown .... autoimmune
hemolytic anemia which this
chemical causes.
Is there blood in urine?
<http://www.valdezlink.com/pages/foryourdoctor.htm#for>
That is also one of its
clues for those with direct
exposure. Many people have a
specialty interest & want to
focus on just the nervous
system issues.
You are dealing primarily
with an autoimmune immune
system & lots of glandular
hormones can go high or low
& still be part of what this
chemical exposure does.
I think seizures can be from
lack of oxygen ... still
part of the
fatigue.
I've talked to a lot of gulf
war vets ... most by
internet

How many of the CFIDS
symptoms
<http://www.valdezlink.com/pages/flunotflu.htm#is>
do you have?
I would like to know what
these 3 soldiers were doing
before the 'flu-like'
symptoms started:
<http://valdezlink.com/pages/soldiersdie.htm>
I think a study should be
done on how EVOS workers
look like the 'gulf war
syndrome' vets ... and LIKE
others

It all really
started with flu like symptoms then I
had all the signs of a heart attack..
from there
on a daily basis I have headaches,*
*
muscle/joint pains,*
fatigue,*
*
chest pains, difficulty breathing, seizures
(as of last two weeks) temper problems
*
..
get mad quick and easy which is way
different than before I started getting
sick.
My fiancé did
notice that when I came home in December 05
I was kicking thrashing screaming and
moaning in my sleep. doctors have said that
I do have post traumatic stress disorder but
that does not explain all my problems. both
times I went to the ER i was treated like I
was a nutcase and the last time I was
referred to a mental facility. I was never
sick before so I know something is wrong. I
am going to present this information to the
doctors tomorrow.
Is there any
cure for this? I am just starting to dig
into what you sent me. you can call me but
it would have to be 3p your time 9-14-06
thank you for
your help... wally (In 2000 a gulf war
vet has a question also

)

I
have also wondered whether or
not there was a connection
between Exxon Valdez oil spill
cleanup workers... and how the
1989 oil spill was cleaned up
... and how they cleaned up the
oil in the 1991 oil spill

Our Nation
also needs to know what happened to the EVOS
workers
