Shawn...I am almost 65 years old and was born with two birth defects and EVEN I don't have all those symptoms. You deserve compensation and hope you all get it.

Hi Joan, I was not a gulf war vet, although I used most of the chemicals for agent orange while working for the forrest service many many years ago. But had IBS before that even.

I was just posting this for the information.

ibs is bad news and that's all i can say. it is truly an "orphaned" disease. doctors don't think it is important and they say "it is psychological" which is another way of saying "we don't know and we don't care, just pay us".
