Unexplained WOUNDS
October 2, 2000

I was cut by some wire in Northern Iraq. The wound appeared to heal normally until my return to Germany. Wound had scar tissues,  I went to the field and returned with what appeared to be a rash. Was treated for a number of things and it appeared to be going away, but always returned. It has been 10 years and I have seen 12 doctors. Had biopsy last week and waiting for results. Wound was only initially 2 inches and is now covering the entire front half of my L R leg. Any info or ideas? Anyone else out there with similar situation? Please e-mail me.

Karen - "feel like this?"

Anyone in the Gulf war experience this: Two years ago my son's leg mid distance from ankle to knee opened with a very deep hole. Just erupted-doesn't remember ever bumping it. Doctors can't seem to take care of it. Had about every test done to it. Now wound much wider and shallower and more painful. Would like to know of anyone with similar problem and how it was treated. Many thanks. Karen

MY HUSBAND HAS HAD A HOLE IN HIS LEG FOR TWO YEARS NOW. HE HAS BEEN THROUGH SO MUCH THERAPY, WOUND TREATMENT, surgery YOU NAME IT, HE'S HAD IT. I AM CURIOUS TO KNOW IF YOUR SON HEALED, AND WHAT KIND OF TREATMENTS OR SURGERIES THAT HE HAD. I AM DESPERATE. THANK YOU


Of course, you know what I suspect causes 'gulf war syndrome'

adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma   link
An aggressive (fast-growing) type of T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma caused by the human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1). It is marked by bone and skin lesions, high calcium levels, and enlarged lymph nodes, spleen* , and liver. Also called ATLL.

I never heard of this before,

but it is the kind of thing that exposure to glycol ether would cause

Recall a serious flu?  ... or a lot of 'the sniffles?'

'the sniffles'

We had a 3 year old girl in our town who collapsed a year ago with almost NO red blood cells.  The diagnosis came back as ALL, but I strongly suspect it was NHL with AIHA.  The computer picked out Rituxan for her treatment and she is doing well today.  Taken the last treatment / and is now in remission

ALL or AIHA + NHL

and Rituxan here:  www.valdezlink.com/re/jan08.htm

Rituxan for AIHA?
