Take a TV with you
I also came back from Vietnam a little differant. Went from 6' 1" and 200# to 6' 1" and 129#. Thought I had Malaria but it turned out it was a parasite that needed the food worse than I did. Got rid of it and since no other problems. Now all that were with me in my Unit are falling prey to cancers and I attribute these to agent orange, which we were around on a daily basis, I can even remember the taste of it. To make a long story short, make sure you all get these tests.....not very comfortable but it is a lot better than the alternative. The older we get the more we are likely to get something. Take a TV into the bathroom with you, it makes the time pass faster.......................and it ain't over till it's over.........so don't think you can make it to the test UNTIL all the artillary is through exploding!
