Yes. I also want to let everyone know that we used other stuff besides Agent Orange and let you know that one of these is Agent Blue which was used in Nam. There is not much research on what problems is associated with it. I have lots of skin cancers and I believe that that is caused by Agent Blue.

Welcome @jimmyray, Sorry to hear you were also affected by a chemical agent used in Vietnam. You are right that there does not seem to be a lot of research on the problems associated with it. I did find a couple of articles that you may have already seen.

Have you had any problems with the VA getting treatments?
