Blebs

I was in Viet Nam in the late 60s.  I had major surgery for blebs on my left lung a few years after getting out of the service.  Is there any known connection between agent orange and blebs?

I just happened upon your comment.  It is amazing to me that NO ONE has commented to you about this.  I have had the very same thing happen to me and I was in Nam 66-67.  I seem to be doing fare now but have more blebs on the right lung at the bottom.  My surgery was much later than yours ( last year)_
There has been some research done by the Air force and the document is there but I can't seem to retrieve it.  I will continue because it is something that I believe that every Viet Vet need to know about.
