It might be a
good idea to keep a
list of a
lot of the symptoms you have, as you can't remember everything at the
appt and the doctors need to see the whole picture of what you are
dealing with.
I'm putting
together a list of ailments that could be part of the Chronic Fatigue
Immune Dysfunction Syndrome ... which I suspect could be the harm to
many in our military from WWII days to the present.
Do
this questionnaire & share it with your doctor.
Thankfully,
everyone doesn't get everything on the list. The chemical
exposure I am concerned with is ethylene
glycol monobutyl ether. The biggest clue to its harm is blood
in urine. Next clue is red
blood cells that are small sized (immature?) You
need to know that, because liver and white blood cell tests don't read
right if red blood cells are predominately immature.
It is said that the dioxin mixture was
mixed with Jet fuel so it would adhere to the foliage.
So it may be another chemical, not dioxin, that is the
primary cause of the vietnam vets' harm
