Probably Not at all!: Gulf war syndrome is a multisymptom group of problems in returning vets after the persian gulf war. Most symptoms are neurologically related; some memory problems; psychiatric problems; post traumatic stress. Thus far, no increase in birth defects have been linked to gulf war syndrome!

Gulf War Syndrome: Menstrual problems (heavy cycles, menstrual cramping, pregnancy losses, difficulty conceiving, hormonal imbalances, gain or loss of weight) which are chronic and not clearly medically explained (which may be paired with fibromyalgia or joint pain) are eligible to make claim for Gulf War Syndrome.
