Is Brain Fog treated by VA -gulf war
I have see a lot articles and studies on gulf war veterans which have noticed Impaired Cognitive Function which many vets called Brain Fog.
I have seen studies saying this Brain Fog is aggravated by poor quality of sleep. (see blow)
I have seen studies which chronic pain aggravates ones brain fog/ Impaired Cognitive Function (see blow)
I have seen studies which say Stress like PTSD as aggravates our brain fog.
(see blow)
I question how many vets with Mild brain injury or concussions are left with Impaired Cognitive Function/Brain Fog ?
I question why Dr. Haley imaging studies has not address these issues of brain function ?
I question why the VA-RAC-GWI has not recommended studies to address this symptom - brain fog, which is in the top 10 of 33 symptom list created by the IOM and Congress ?
