What is the Gulf War Syndrome?
The Gulf War Syndrome is the health condition of unknown causes characterized by statistically unlikely similar symptoms that occur especially in the veterans of the first Gulf and their families. Many theories were set for the causes of the Gulf War Syndrome and the situation was largely studied by the government of the United States and other nations. Syndrome is also a topic of controversy, because some authorities believe that it does not actually exist. It seems that American and British soldiers actively suffer from the Gulf War Syndrome, although other allied units also reported symptoms. Veterans reported fatigue, joint pain, nausea, headaches, unexplained skin rashes, respiratory disorders, sexual dysfunction, dizziness and nervous system syndromes. Several specific conditions including brain cancer, fibromyalgia, and Lou Gehrig's disease was also associated specifically with the service of the Gulf War. Due to the large range of symptoms, the warrior syndrome isGulf very difficult to classify and diagnose accurately.
Post traumatic stress also often accompanies the Gulf War Syndrome, and some authorities claimed that the syndrome was caused by stress. It may also be associated with exposing pesticides, burning oil, prophylactic drugs, vaccines, depleted uranium and chemical exposure. All these substances were demonstrably present during the Gulf War. The United States and Britain used prophylactic drugs and pesticides during the conflict, explaining why the syndrome has a higher incidence among soldiers from these nations. Other theorists suggest that syndrome may be related to bacteria, endemic diseases in the Middle East, or chemical and biological weapons supplied in Iraq
Unsamotte states deployed to the Middle East during the first war in the Gulf of 697,000 men and women. Up to 10 of these individuals reported symptoms in the mid -90s. Some of the symptoms alsoThey expanded to families of these soldiers, many of whom brought back Memento from Iraq, which could be contaminated, in addition to their polluted equipment.
The dispute over the cause of the Gulf War Syndrome has led to a public debate in the United States and other countries. Some veterans feel that they were treated by a veteran administration that often denies the benefits of soldiers and claims that their symptoms may not be their service. Among the civilian community with the Gulf War Syndrome, it also fell under control, especially after the functions of main magazines, such as the time for this issue. The Iraqi War Veterans in 2003 also began to report similar symptoms, which brought renewed control of the Gulf syndrome along with an attempt at clipping the cause and possible treatment.
