AN for Viet Nam vets ?
« on: September 09, 2019, 11:25:39 am »
 Checking to see if there are other Viet Nam vets who have experienced AN.... Researching to see if agent orange could be a factor...

I’m a Vietnam vet. ANs are not a product of agent orange.  You can contact the VA but you know how that system works.

Find the best doctors, interview them, get recommendations, and decide how you want to proceed.
