I have posted a couple of times about my son (9 years old) and it is looking

increasingly

likely that neurosarc. may be my son's final dx. He was always ill as a

toddler, young

child... often ill for 3 weeks out of every four... and I mean really high

fevers, etc., etc. Not

just normal childhood stuff. All the docotrs said, " He'll grow out of it. "

Yeah, right.

Anyway, I have done some research and reading and come across the fact that some

Vietnam War vets are receiving disability as they effectively proved their

sarc. was caused

by Agent Orange exposure during the war.

This is of interest to me as my son is Vietnamese and was adopted from an

orphanage in

Phu Yen province.

If anyone knows more about sarc. and pesticides (especially Agent Orange), can

you please

let me know. I'm looking for all the info I can get my hands on,
