But now they call it Fibromyalgia. I got it after I came back from Aden in 1968. I have suffered for over 40 years from this debilitating illness and was told by doctors "it is all in your mind". I have been unable to work since I was medically discharged from the Army. When will the MOD own up to this and give us veterans a decent pension? - lennox helft Wed, 08 Apr 2009 21:48:22 +0100 http://www.ei-resource.org/news/gulf-war-syndrome-news/uk-government-to-recognize-gulf-war-syndrome/#comment-171 The goverment didn,t admit it was through vacines infact they employed a proffessor Lee from harris hospital in london to research into vaccines and his report shows it wasn ,t the cause I never said it was vaccines thats what they blamed it on in the first instance WHAT ABOUT ALL THE IRAQI PEOPLE WHAT DEVELOPED THE SAME SYMPTOMS.tHEY DIDN,T HAVE INJECTIONS.Don,t believe everthing the goverment tee you Labour in 1994 promised a public enquiry into gulf war but when they came to power they changed thier policyAs for what I BELIEVE caused my illness is without question what ever was mixed in with the sand I suspect depleted uranium dust wish was inhaled through my mouth an nose the natural immuity defence of the body attack these particles causing my white blood cells to multiply damaging my tear ducts and slavia glands which the doctors diagnosed as sergrons syndrome and I believe caused the bleeding from the rectrum and muscle weakness I thank you for your interest and welcome a open debate the doctors employed by the goverment could try to prove it exists rather trying to prove it dosn,t which they have not been able to The americans except it why can,t are goverment could it be to do with money! P.S. They have stopped using deleted uranium weapons QUOTE FROM THE GOVERMENT they are not as accurate as accurate on missiles as some other metals e.g Tungston AND to think I was so daft I always thought they were guided by computers. yours faithfully J.K.GIBBONS - MR J,K,GIBBONS Mon, 08 Sep 2008 02:10:51 +0100 http://www.ei-resource.org/news/gulf-war-syndrome-news/uk-government-to-recognize-gulf-war-syndrome/#comment-131 this doesnt add up. if government says gulf war syndrome is from vacines given to troops then why would you have contracted it just by working close to a plane. have they not investigated the use of depleted uranium. this would leave high levels on the plane that you would have been exposed to back in england and although i am no doctor would probably explain the terrible side effects you have suffered - rich Wed, 09 Jul 2008 07:43:28 +0100 http://www.ei-resource.org/news/gulf-war-syndrome-news/uk-government-to-recognize-gulf-war-syndrome/#comment-37 I was sent home from B.A.E.in dec 1992 after R.A.F.TORNADO,S WAS SENT BACK UNCLEAN IN BATTLE FATIGUE CONDITION TO WARTON PRESTON THEY WAS PLACED IN A DISUSED HANGAR WERE I WAS WORKING.I STARTED TO HAVE SEVERE MUSCLE PROBLEMS BLEEDING FROM THE RECTRUM MEMORY LOSS AND EXTREME FATIGUE.i WAS RETIRED ON ILL HEALTH TOLD I WOULD NEVER WORK AGAIN MY WHITE BLOOD CELL COUNT WAS 1500 THE NORM BEING 250 IT DESTROYED MY SLAVIA GLANDS AND TEAR DUCTS - MR J GIBBONS Fri, 08 Feb 2008 10:31:09 +0100
