Nicholas,
I don't think I've mentioned it yet on the board, I got a letter from the V.A. Medical Headquarters about 4 years ago telling me that the had determined that the condition I have is due to extreme exposure to "Agent Orange" while I was in Viet Nam. (I had an incident where I was on top of a fuel bladder that they had filled with "Agent Orange" It probably held 3000 gallons or so. well we got mortared and the bladder burst because of impact,I fell into the "Agent Orange" and was completely submerged in it.)
I suspect it's like -We Have little to no Idea what the Heck is causing your pain so It's "Agent Orange Exposure" I never took them serious, Might have some validity after all?
