In response to Fibromyalgia agent orange Vietnam - gulf war posted by rlafave:
In reply to your question...the answer should be yes.
there's a thin line there. Agent Orange is the name of the chemical "DIOXIN" that was used in the Herbicide treatment.
(The soldiers were told this herbicide was safe..but it was taken off the market shortly after.) My husband is a Vietnam Vet '69-70. My son & daughter both have symptoms from Agent Orange, daughter researched and went to specialists and been diagnosed with FibroMyalgia,but still in testing. This specialist told her what she had, she was born with. My husband has been in pest control for 40 years. He has been schooled and lectured on these chemicals..so..he knows what this chemical, and what it does to creatures and the human body. For one this chemical attacks the nerves from the spine that go to all parts of the body, and it is passed thru to the children and grandchildren..with sorts of different effects. The gov. isn't going to tell you THAT! If you go to a Dr. don't mention ANYTHING about Agent Orange or Vietnam. I could go into a great deal of detail but it will tak a while. If you or anyone with symptoms on this (and you or a parent are a Vietnam Vet.) would like to contact me feel free to do so at: dckshr@graceba.net
sincerely,
sharon
