For the last twenty years, veterans of the Persian Gulf War of 1991 have been complaining of a range of ailments, including pain, fatigue, and problems with memory and concentration. And for just as long, the causes have remained uncertain and there has been a tendency by the military to attribute the complaints to post-traumatic stress disorder.

Now a long-term study at the University of Texas in Dallas has used a new technique to measure blood flow in the brains of sufferers and has detected “marked abnormalities” in brain function that can probably be attributed to low levels of exposure to sarin nerve gas. This abnormal blood flow has persisted or even worsened over the eleven years of the study.

“The findings mark a significant advancement in our understanding of the syndrome, which was for years written off by the Defense Department and the Department of Veterans Affairs as a form of combat stress rather than an objectively diagnosable injury,” reports the Dallas Observer.

“Dr. Robert Haley, chief epidemiologist at UT Southwestern, and a cadre of clinicians and researchers, have struggled with the government for some 18 years for research funding and to have the syndrome recognized as a legitimate war injury,” the paper notes.

Heley’s team has not yet pinpointed the nature of the brain damage, which is estimated to affect 25% of the 700,000 Gulf War veterans, or worked out an effective treatment. He is confident, however, that “the research is really going to come to a head in the next six to 12 months.”

Damn right it’s real! It killed the best friend I had in this world.
- I’m sorry to hear that. In his memory, expose the government death machine.
The real brain damage is to those free republican people who so stupidly arrogantly, criminally and insanely went to the tyranny of Kuwait to restore a lawless-noble criminal racist-eugenic tribal mafia tyrant warlord to an imperial fascist throne – to steal the oil from this suothern port of Iraq
when you’ve got war criminals like rumsfeld and rockefeller running pharmaceutical companies – you’ve got a lot to be concerned about.
research :
gilead sciences – tamiflu – rumsfeld

you’ve got weapons contractors doing virus research
Excessive heat , Sarin gas , depleted uranium , vaccinations out the ying yang , it’s a miracle these guys can function at all . I mean it’s not like they had healthy bodies to start with . Most have been on fluoridated water all their lives , eating GMO foods and now we know , low level radiation . Maybe that’s why they sat on their hands at Fukushima , humans are harder to kill than they thought .
- On top of every other exposure, they were given Diet Coke, chuck full of aspartame, in BPA bottles, sitting in the desert sun. All they could drink. Any possibility of ice was likely fluoridated. Patriotic Americans, especially veterans, are treated like cannon fodder. On behalf of a grateful nation, our veterans and citizens deserve better than drinkable rat poison.
  - Oh yeah. You put a case of soda-pop out in the hot sun, and it bubbles up all sort of interesting chemicals including formaldehyde, depending on the brand …
Heley’s team…doe snot take into account…the heat causing excess ammonia build up in the crown area of the head…blood gets overly alkalized….stagnent…
and that destroys the fatty tissue of the nerve sheath area.
This causes the signals …brianwaves…to be altered…and the auto-immune responses get screwed up…unable to rebuild the nervous system as designed.
The thermo-dynamics of an area of about 2 inches of the crown area of the head…
if that area is treated like a sports injury…heat and cool…
cycling the blood flow responses of those muscles…they will restore normal fucntions…
It is like a lactic acid build up in muscles in reverse…
Lactic acid build up…and the muscles Freeze up…lock up. ..cramp
alkalizing the musles… overly relaxes…and so the blood does not pump normally…
Massaging the crown area lightly …will also trigger the body…
to move the alkalized blood….out of the tiny muscles….
It is all thermo-dynamics…”the feeling fo your brains being fryed in those suits”…
Same thing I experienced working in steam tunnels…welding.
Same exact scenario with heat stroke…that then triggers the liver to not function…
too much ammonia…alkiline…produced in the blood stream…and the liver shuts down…
says “OH NO YOU WON”T KEEP KILLING ME”…you pass out…piss and shit…puke
until excess ammonia is removed…balance is restored…
Thing is…only ingest small amounts of water….after this… episode…
as too much water will keep making too much ammonia…
Oxygen to the lungs…versus fresh air…
fresh air…will not have too much oxygen…shallow breathing slowly to deep breathing.
ammonia… in the lungs …naturally repells pure oxygen…physics.
that can shock the lungs into severe muscle spasms…. of the diaphram.
and can suffocate under pure oxygen.
Helium mixtures…like deep divers use…is a better choice.
Helium moves excess ammonia out of the lungs faster…physics.
and brings in oxygen molecules at the same time…
So put these affected soldiers on that helium deep diving mixture…
for 2 minutes…fresh air for 2 minutes…cycle…
Whe they get a slight headache…not migraine…
stop the procedures…let them rest…recoup…
when the headache stops…good to go.
I am not a doctor… self taught but have reversed many of my poor circulatory conditions.
I have lived through it.
Traced it all to the crown area…of the head.
You know when things are good…when deep breathing automatically kicks in….
that is the time…. for just fresh air…more amounts of water… and rest.
The body will start flexing muscles atomatically…appear to be seizures…. not really…
it is normal…the body is using isometrics…to get the blood flowing and de-tox…
This can occur for many minutes afterwards…the body just doing it’s thing…
this can be misinterpreted by field medics…
who don’t understand the natural processes… in great detail.
inject muscle relaxers…at the wrong time….not needed…then ammonia is not flushed out.
Terrible hangover feeling effect…afterwards.
Like I stated …I am not a doctor…so I cannot be sued either..
but many affected veteran soldiers might read this…help them out.
Especially the ones with post tramatic war syndrome…
Keep this cycling happening…and you can “bring them home”…(field expression of Viet Nam Era)

is overly relaxing
- Thank you for sharing. I always wondered why heat took me down so hard. I have found that massaging the crown helps bring relief. I was always thinking it was my sinuses.
- I agree with what you are saying for the most part.
  
  I tuned into Gulf War Syndrome when I as a civilian that had never served developed nearly identical symptoms at about the same time as those that served in the Persian Gulf War.
  
  I work in heavy construction with massive amounts of dust, opening up the earth for foundation work, work with concrete, portland cement, structural steel involving huge amounts of welding, asbestos abatement programs, contact adhesives, plasics and heat seam welding of plastics, asphalt and hot asphalt products – you name it.
  
  I also became aware that many working in the industry have similar/same health problems and some actually die usually in their early 60′s and have all kinds of neurologial and muscular/skeletal problems.
  
  What is most interesting to note, is the fact that no one talks about, that severe health problems involving the immune system seemed to strike Gulf War Veterans and Construction Industry workers at about the same time. And what is even more interesting that no one is talking about, is that whatever it is, it appears to be somewhat contagous. When I was really sick with it just before turning 50, it almost killed me and my parents seemed to develop the exact same symptoms as I got sick, only they did not recover and they both died. When they died it was attributed as old age, but we exchanged notes on all the symptoms when we were sick and realized something “was in the air,” or water, or food.
  
  A lot can be hidden under the blanket of old age, and I suppose Gulf War Syndrome is no different, but as so many now face cancer and immunological diseases that are truely bazzar, one has to ask the question, what is really going on here?
  
  I am in no way implying that the Gulf Veterans are not genuinely aflicted, because they obviously are. So are the 9/11 first responders, they too are genuinely aflicted. And so are their counterparts, many Americans across the country and these totals just DO NOT ADD UP.
  
  IMO, it’s something “in the air,” or perhaps from vaccines or GMO foods and it’s weakening everyone, as each group then gets sick from saw dust to cow farts, but they are actually sick from something else. In the case of our veterans from the Gulf War, it is obvious that extra exposure is involved and greatly accelerating their demise, as we also saw with the 9/11 1st responders.
Better check with the US Government on that one, heck we made saddam hussain and then when he wasn’t convenient we invited him to attack kuwait and then spanked him and made an enemy of him only for us to come back 10 years later with the concocted 911 and finally completely take him out according to georgie and new world order big idea daddy. for crying out loud wake up America!
You don’t need any Sarin to get all screwed up …

All you have to do , is wear one of’em gas masks , helmet , n’ and air tight rubber
suits in a hot desert , while movin’ around under duress , and the heat itself will
fry out your brains out !!!
- Oh yeah, I remember that one.
  
  When going through weapons training at Camp Pendleton and finishing up with basic training, we had the full gear including the steel pot helmet … and I could feel the full summer sun in southern California just cooking my brain. Just a few minutes in the midday sun, and I felt dizzy and disoriented in the full gear …
- The navy put me in one of those suits . It’s like a green house with no air. felt like I was going to pass out from lack of air. Brain damage for sure but you learn never to trust any so called leaders. I didn’t join, the draft was after my body and that’s all you are ,a body to be use for war profits. At less the Vietnam Vets. came home and join the protester. Theses Vets. will come home and turn on us, half of them got green cards and the other half are just killers. The Dream ACT will put more foreign people in the military if past.
The military has never wanted to admit the Gulf War syndrome because they would have to take care of these people and that would cost them mega money.
- Several years ago, I met a few of the guys who had the Gulf War syndrome while at the VA Hospital, and just talking to them about the symptoms told me it was a really strange condition. Of course, the VA denied at first, just like Agent Orange from Vietnam, but some of these guys were really messed up.
  
  I also heard about some experimental vaccines as a possible cause of GWS.
  - IMO, it’s the vaccines primarily that really weakens the immune system and then any other added stressors like heat build up and other toxins that totally distroys one’s health.
    
    Consuming mass amounts of antioxidants and green, broad leaf vegitables, berries of all types and believe it or not medicinal mushrooms like Reishi and Cordyceps, along with LOTS of herbs like garlic, Celantro, oregano, dandelion greens and ROOTS, herb nettles, vitamin C with flavenoids and filtered drinking water really helps and slowly you can recover IMO. But it takes sustained effort for years!!! and whatever you do, NO MORE VACCINES once you develop ANY symptoms!!!
    
    You may also need to add in some OTC antihistamines which include MaHong herbal derivatives in the class of Pseudophedrine and some dextromethorphan HBr.
    
    If you use the OTC meds, you must drink lots of water, eat brown rice and keep up with the greens. Stay on a detox program and DON’T FORGET to take concentrated trace minerals frequently with lots of water. If you are not getting the right amount and types of minerals, the detox treatment and greens don’t work very well.
    
    You will recognize some success when you cough loosens up and is wetter and more productive and you can taste the minerals salt in your spit. It’s a real balancing act but anyone can learn how to do it and I am pretty sure I got it down pat now after about 10 or 12 years and leaning to work it like kid yo-yo doing all the yo-yo tricks from the cradle to around the world, if you get my drift.
    
    Whew, what a wake up and what journey!
    - And if you really tune into natural herbs, research them and how to use them. When I was really sick all the time, I found that massive amounts of garlic really helped. When I say massive amounts, it’s by the hand full of whole spears, steamed only enough to take out the sharp onion sting so you can eat lots of it every day.
      
      Yeah, I know it makes for bad breath and body odor, but I got used to it and I work out doors for the most part and past the age of 60 I can still out work the kids once again.
      
      Read my other posts about this on this forum and it’s kind of lie a package.
      
      I am not a doctor, but I did a real lot of research because I refused to give up, sit back and die.
      
      YOU’VE GOTTA GET OFF YOUR ASS AND FIGHT. FIGHT THIS THING AND HAVE SOME FAITH THAT YOU CAN BEAT IT IF YOU REALLY WANT TO. FOLLOW THE QUIETER VOICE!!!
    - You did mention something interesting in the previous post about immunological diseases, Unspun.
      
      A couple of years ago, I got interested in reading and researching about HIV/AIDS and other autoimmune disorders, and found an interesting case where this man had developed what appeared to be full-blown AIDS but he was not homo-sexual, nor an IV drug user, and consistently tested negative for the HIV retro-virus.
      
      The patient had worked a career of about a decade or more in the aircraft construction industry and had been constantly exposed to the various solvents, chemicals, and materials in his job and it was established by his doctor that the constant exposure to the chemicals and materials in the workplace had cause the immune deficiency disease that this patient was suffering.
      
      I wonder how much other chemical and material exposure may affect the health of us all?
    - You got that right Leonard59, there are so many solvents, shemicals and “plasticizers” in everything and they get absorbed and make people’s immune systems very weak.
      
      Check out the research on Bis Phenol A, it’s just one(1) type of plasicizer in the plastics industry and there are many. This crap actually throws cell metabolism so out of wack, it’s only funny if you come from someplace like hell, or Mars. Now there is a place on Mars if no one ever told you about it, where the women smoke cigars – – – and I’ll let you figure out the rest.
OK, well… who TF deployed the sarin nerve gas?
