I have heard a lot of stories about several different illnesses which come on after being in any of the Gulf Wars.

A small suggestion. Try taking a supplement for tyhroid function. There are "over the counter" pills for this. Coping with this type of stress often makes your tyhroid underactive, and this is a problem doctors are slow to pick up. Try one of the medicines available - if you take the recommended dose it can do no harm, and you will soon notice if it is doing any good. If it is no good then discontinue it, but it is mainly a vitamin and mineral pill, so not dangerous.

Do you have any recommendations on specific brands/formulas etc? I hadn't heard that there were OTC supplements for this problem.

Thanks! :)
