I was ...I was discharged from the US Army in 1976. I was given so many injections of God knows what. No person in the history of my family has ever been dx'd with ms until I was in 1993. Mind you, that was the end of the Viet Nam war time (when I was in). More street type drugs and usage than I had ever been exposed to. I tried to get out for that reason and it was a no-go. Back to subject, Besides what I was exposed to then, my father was an Instructor in (Thermal Nuke Weapons) while in US Airforce in the 1950's. He was exposed to (unknown). Treatment given was Bed in military hospital, large intake (oral) of BEER, yes beer, to make him urinate a lot. I quess to pee out what he had been exposed to. I was conceived shortly ther after As ealier reported, I was dx'd with ms in 1993.<BR/>With the reported increase in Military dx's of ms in soldiers, even back to VN era and before. This May Very Well Be Something the DOD wants to be mindful of. If for no other reason than to help eradicate this slow death dx. They may, in some unknowing-way, be responsible<BR/> PLEASE, do what is right, not only what is right in your head but in your heart as well.<BR/><BR/>With Respect<BR/>Jeffrey A Miller (fuzzythirty)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
