I agree with the concern for
vision & those with CFIDS
* ...
C6H14O2/CH3(CH2)2CH2OCH2CH2OH
with 'gulf
war syndrome' vets
Robin of EVOS ... lost 80% of
her vision and had holes in her retina
*
gall bladder, child with
serious heart issues
Another bioremediation worker
says he is dealing with macular degeneration
I feel my health issues as a
'baby boomer' are late to show up issues
from a kid
of a WWII vet who saw
military 'action'
& must have had what today is
called CFIDS
WWII Vets health AND children
The VA should stop giving you 'the run
around'

Vision problems with gulf war vets
with CFS needs to be investigated!
[Pathology of the organ of vision in
chronic fatigue syndrome]
[Article in Russian]
218 patients were examined and the
chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) was
diagnosed in them on the basis of
clinical-and- immunologic data. 126
somatically healthy persons of the
same age and sex were in the control
group. Vascular pathology of the
vision organ was found in 153
(70.2%) persons, and dystrophic
pathology was found in 115 (52.8%)
persons. A combination of vascular
and dystrophic pathologies of the
vision organ was diagnosed in 46
(21.1%) patients. The detection of
vision pathology in the CFS patients
essentially exceeded the morbidity
of similar pathology in the
controls. No reliable differences of
refraction anomalies were found
between the CFS patients and the
controls.
PMID: 13678013 [PubMed - indexed for
MEDLINE]
The key here is that a lot of clues and
hints to cancer, vascular problems,
neurological diseases can be found in
the full examination of the eyes! MS,
parkinson's, Lupus, Cancers, sclerosis,
autoimmune disorders.
A lot of times vision changes are the
earliest changes that will be able to be
found easily if examined!
Now the gulf war veterans have higher
occurrence of brain cancers, ALS, MS so
it might behoove all of us gulf war
veterans, veterans advocates, supporters
to look at resources re does the VA have
adequate high level neuro-opthamologist
to help?, do we need fee basis, do we
need just a little bit of research into
very specific areas?, do we need VA
benefits to look at this? do we need
legislation to do any of the above?
DO we need to push UTSW med to at least
do one study?
Also the problem with hearing re ringing
in ears that leads us to think about
chemical poisoning otology and effect on
nerves and demylineration? Ototoxicity?
These are definite areas that could help
prove a connection THAT HAVE NOT BEEN
INCLUDED.
