Continuing Support for Gulf War Veterans' Illnesses Research: Request for Veterans' Help Chemical rockets destroyed in pit area, March 1991. Predemolition photo of pit area near Khamisiyah, Iraq. Support Efforts. No US troops reported symptoms, or were treated for chemical agent exposure at Khamisiyah. In response to veterans' concerns about Gulf war-related health problems, however, the Central Intelligence Agency and the Department of Defense are searching intelligence and other reports for any information that might address the illnesses of Persian Gulf Veterans. In 1996, a joint CIA-DoD investigation concluded that in March 1991 US troops had unknowingly destroyed Iraqi chemical munitions at two locations near Khamisiyah, Iraq: Bunker 73. US troops destroyed 122-mm (five inches in diameter and eight feet long) chemical rockets stored in one of the 102 bunkers at the Khamisiyah ammunition depot. Subsequent sampling indicates that the rockets contained the nerve agents sarin and GF. Iraq referred to that bunker as "Bunker 73." The "Pit" South of Khamisiyah . US troops destroyed some of the several hundred 122-mm chemical rockets in numerous stacks that had been placed in a 400-meter-long shallow sand pit two kilometers south of the Khamisiyah ammunition depot (see overhead image of the pit, above). Subsequent sampling indicates that the rockets also contained sarin and GF. In May 1996, Iraq told UN inspectors that, just before the Gulf war, it moved about 1,100 chemical rockets from Bunker 73 to the pit.

Uranium Nitricum If you are going to use homeopathic remedies, please see the Guidelines Page Self-treatment with carefully chosen remedies which are taken properly can help those with GWI/GWS. But GWI/GWS is very complex and should be treated professionally. As a classical homeopath, I cannot consult about the homeopathic remedies for Gulf War Illnesses without discussing the true causes and symptoms of GWS. Homeopathic prescribing is most dependent on the individual symptoms of each sufferer, and so it is a most viable method of treatment for the very diverse symptoms of GWS, but finding the causes of GWS is important for prescribing too. GWS causes many illnesses which are real and terrifying. It can be both lethal and moderately contagious. It can be communicable through casual and intimate contact of bodily fluids from sexual exchange and by airborne contact by coughing and perspiration, making for secondary infectees. GWS is not imagined as the U.S. Dept of Defense has alleged for the past 5 years while refusing proper medical care and benefits to the vets and their families. To date GWS affects well over 160,000 of the Gulf War veterans. This ever-growing statistic does not include the secondary infectees: the wives, children, other family members, friends or associates who are sick, disabled, dying or dead.

The MoD has strongly denied jabs given to soldiers about to serve in the 1990 conflict compromised their health. But Lieutenant Colonel Graham Howe, clinical director of psychiatry with the British Forces Health Service in Germany, has questioned this view. Independent research has failed to find conclusive proof of a link. Col Howe was asked by the War Pensions Agency to examine the case of former Lance-Corporal Alex Izett, from Cumbernauld in Lanarkshire, who suffered from osteoporosis, which in turn led to depression. Col Howe wrote in his report that the former Royal Engineer had inoculations prior to the conflict, which were not recorded on his medical documents because they had officially been classified as "secret". Alex Izett suffered depression The Times newspaper report that he concluded: "It seems most likely certain that Mr Izett did in fact receive classified `secret' injections prior to his expected deployment and that in turn these have most probably led to the development of autoimmune-induced osteoporosis."

(Redirected from Gulf War Syndrome Gulf War syndrome is the name given to a variety of psychological and physical symptoms suffered by veterans of the Gulf War (although it is not clear that any of these symptoms are related to Gulf War service, or to each other). The symptoms have been remarkably wide-ranging, and sometimes somewhat ill-defined, but typically include chronic fatigue , loss of muscle control, diarrhea migraines , dizziness, memory problems and loss of balance. Various causes that have been suggested, some more likely than others: Depleted uranium poisoning The side-effects of drugs given for protection against nerve agents Autoimmune diseases induced by squalene , an adjuvant used in anthrax vaccines to speed up the development of anthrax immunity.

Search Gulf Veterans' Illnesses MEDICAL ASSESSMENT PROGRAMME A Review Of Gulf War Illness by W J Coker OBE Group Captain Coker was head of the Medical Assessment Programme. This paper was first published in the Journal of the Royal Naval Medical Service, Vol 82, Summer 1996, pp. 141-146. INTRODUCTION Approximately 51,000 British troops deployed to the Gulf region in the build up to and during the Gulf War 1990-1991. The air war began on 16 January 1991 and was followed 39 days later by a ground war lasting four days. Combat casualties were far fewer than anticipated and the incidence of non-battle injuries and disease was much lower in comparison with other military campaigns. The conflict was characterised however, by the widely anticipated threat of the use of chemical and biological weapons by Iraq. In response to this threat extensive medical preparations and countermeasures had been made. Following their return from the Gulf region, although the vast majority of veterans remained well and fit for duty, a number of veterans began to report a variety of symptoms with varying degrees of disability. Initially people talked of 'Desert Storm Fever' but later the pattern and variety of illness became known as 'Gulf War Syndrome'. In response to these medical complaints by Gulf veterans, some of whom were still serving, in October 1993 the Ministry of Defence set up the Medical Assessment Programme (MAP). This paper will describe the assessment programme, detail its initial findings and discuss the various current hypotheses which have been advanced to explain the phenomenon of 'Gulf War Syndrome'.

Gulf War Illness Gulf War Syndrome is the title given by the media to dramatize the Gulf war related illnesses that service personnel were suffering. The possible causes of Gulf war Illness consist of exposures to chemical and biological warfare agents. The toxic combination of anti-nerve agent pills and OP's and insecticides, large amount of inoculations, smoke, oil well fires and other infectious diseases all played their part. The symptoms consist of differing combinations of extreme fatigue, joint pain, spinal damage, cancers, heart conditions, muscle aches and spasms, gastro-intestinal disorders, nausea and vomiting, diarrhea, headaches, fevers, neurological problems, birth defects and memory and concentration problems. Recent studies in America point to brain damage and gene manipulation due to the onslaught of toxins to the body's immune system. The Gulf war Veterans Association was formed at the end of November 1994 by veterans of the Gulf War, to support and act for all Veterans of that war, whether Army, Navy, RAF or civilian. Membership since that time has now grown to two thousand. These members cover the full spectrum of the armed services plus Royal Feet Auxiliary and civilians both in Britain and abroad as well as those who have joined in memory of their loved ones lost due to the conflict.

(Photo: AP) Federal research is falling short in large part because studies have not asked important questions and continue to focus on stress to explain the veterans' problems. (AP) Parting company with the findings of a Clinton administration panel on Gulf War illnesses, a new study concludes more must be learned about the effects of toxic substances on those who fought there. The Research Advisory Committee on Gulf War Illness urges that up to $60 million be spent over the next four years to monitor and research the health of Gulf War veterans and their children. In so doing, the panel distanced itself from the earlier body attributed a series of mysterious ailments to stress under conditions of warfare. Scientists are coming close to finding a treatment, the panel said in its report, but it also said researchers need substantially more government financial assistance. The Associated Press obtained a copy of the report in advance of its expected release Friday by Veterans Affairs Secretary Anthony Principi.

Though there have been over 125 studies done by the government at the cost of over $300,000,000 to the taxpayer, we still have no answers as to what caused so many of our soldiers to become ill. Meanwhile, the suffering veterans are receiving little, if any, medical treatment for this illness. It seems that whenever veterans become ill, the term “mystery illness” seems to be the first and often the only diagnosis that is ever made. Veterans are then left to fend for themselves, sick and unable to work, with little hope of a normal life again. Contrary to the “pneumonia” and “mystery illness” labels, enlightening information surfaced today on “THE POWER HOUR” radio show (
