Lola Sohappy Chief Judge, Warm Springs Tribal Court The Indian Warrior -The Veterans Corner Persian Gulf Veteran's Department of Veterans Affairs J ' -Xl . Is there a persian Gulf Syndrome? A. Persian Gulf Syndrome is a term used by some people. It describes symptoms and illnesses reported by some Persiun Gulf veterans who served in Operation Desert ShieldStorm in 1990 and 1991. But it's not a very accurate term. Many highly respected scientific experts have reviewed the available information and concluded there is no single desease causing the illnesses of Persian Gulf veterans. In fact, most of the veterans examined so far have many different but common medical problems that can be easily diagnosed. Q. What symptoms and illnesses are Persian Gulf veterans having? A. The most common symptoms reported by veterans who are part of VA's Persian Gulf Registry program are fatigue, skin rash, muscle and joint pain, headache and difficulty in concentrating. The veterans also report forgetfulness, irritability, sleep problems, diarrhea, stomach cramps or intestinal problems, cough and upper respiratory complaints. Q. What is the Department of Veterans Affairs doing to help Persian Culf veterans with these problems' A VA is helping Persian Gulf veterans in many different ways. VA offers Persian Gulf Registry exams, special eligibility for medical care and disability compensation. VA alsoisdoing outreach and providing information to all interested Persian Gulf veterans. Persian Gulf veterans can also seek help through VA's Vet Centers. Q. What is the Persian Gulf Registry examination program? A. The registry is a voluntary health assessment program offered by all VA medical centers. It is for veterans who served in the Southwest Asia theater of operations during the Persian Gulf War. Veterans who join are interviewed about their medical history and their possible exposures to environmental hazards. They are also asked about any health problems they've had since they returned from the Persian Gulf area. They get a complete physical exam and are given basic laboratory tests on blood and urine. If needed, the veterans may receive more specialized tests and consultations. All veterans in the registry are given the results of their examinations and all tests results in a follow-up letter mailed to their home.

Born August 29, 1932 to parents Myrtle: (Queahpama) & Wallace Scott at Simnasho, Oregon, LeRoy was one of six children. Mr. Scott was a lifelong resident of Warm Springs and an enrolled member of the Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs. He went to the Warm Springs Boarding school up to grade 8, then enlisted in the Navy, where he was a 1st gunner mate on the U.S. Cunningham during the Korean War. When he came home, he mar ried Delphine Moody at Camas, Fred Johnson Sr. passed away Friday, May 1, 1998 at Yakama, Washington. He was 84 years old. Mr. Johnson was born at Simnasho, Oregon to parents Isabel (VanPelt) and William Johnson. He was an enrolled member of the Yakama Tribe but resided in Warm Springs until he went to live with his daugh ter in Yakama. Q. What happens to the information in the registry? A. The findings are analyzed together to look for clues that might be addressed through research studies. The results of each examination are kept in the veteran's permanent medical record and may help in adjudication of claims for compensation. So far, in the first 2 1 2 years of the program, more than 40,000 veterans have participated. Q. What happens if a veteran has symptoms that cannot be diagnosed by doctors at the local VA medical center? A. Those veterans with difficult to diagnose illnesses can be referred to three special Persian Gulf referral Centers created in August 1992. At these special centers, the veterans may undergo more extensive evaluations that take from one to two weeks. Additional laboratory studies may be done, as well as consultations with other specialists. The medical work-up is tailored to each veteran's individual symptoms. Q. How do I get referred to the special centers? A. The decision to refer a veteran to one of the special centers is made by the veteran's VA physician in consultation with a referral center's physician director. Veterans interested in referral should speak to their local VA physician. . What kind of research is going on or planned? A. VA is committed to investigating all possible causes for the health problems of Persian Gulf troops. In 1994, VA established three national environmental research centers. These centers are exploring the health consequences of military service in the Persian Gulf War. Some projects are relatively small, while others involve thousands of participants. Researchers are looking into possible causes such as oil well fires, vaccinations, infections, chemicals, pesticides, microwaves, and other causes as well. Epidemiological studies will compare the health of Persian Gulf veterans with veterans who didn't go to the Persian Gulf. Q. Is there any evidence that Persian Gulf veterans may be sick because of chemical warfare or chemicals such as pesticides? A. Although alarms went off during the war warning that protective gear was needed, there is no scientific evidence that the illness of some Persian Gulf veterans were caused by chemical warfare agents. A complete scientific review was done by the Defense Science Board Task Force on Persian Gulf War Health Effects. This task force of eight civilians experts was created by the Department of Defense in 1 994. its job was to review all available information on chemical or biological agent detection and possible health effects.
