I am a vietnam vet that had visited the da nang hopital with a high fever, vomiting & a diagnosis of viral infection unkown.  I had hemmorroids while in the army.  i was exposed to agent orange and now have colitis that graduated to cronic crohns.
The VA has approved the connection of hemmorroids to the service but I keep getting denied on the more cronic symptoms of crohns.  
Can anyone help me get service related.  Also, they keep saying that they can't find the records of my stay in the da nang hospital

I don't think I can help, but I have heard so many stories like yours before and it is sad, actually terrible! You guys laid your lives on the line for our country, the least they should do is to take care of you in your time of need. I will ask around...I have some vets in my family who might know what avenues to take. Sunny

hey brother welcome home .Combat Nam vet my self, who is helping you with your claim? and do you have aclaim pending?
You need to try and geta copy of your 201 file you might be surprised whats in it. do yuoe any trouble with nevers or depression?
iof so sub mot a claim geta soem one from DAv or VFW to help you with it, the VA has a habit of loosing records,
hang in there and stay after them.
