Subject: Kidney Stones

I have had trouble with kidney stones and urinary tract infections, and I was probably exposed to Agent Orange in Vietnam in 1967 because we flew out of base camp in Tua Hoa to 10 differentnt locations in S. Vietnam during my year there. Had lithotripsy to break up stones in 2005 and 2007 and was hospitalized with UTI in 2000, and in 2011 UTI pushed my temp up to 107 (yeah, WOW) before I was taken to the hospital by ambulance and treated, with urinary backup causing me to wear a catheter for severals days. Going to Gainesville VA Hospital on May 17, 2013 for the the Agent Orange Registry Exam. Sorry to hear on this website that VA doesn't connect these problems with Agent Orange exposure. More than 600,000 have take the Agent Orange Resgistry Exam, and if they keep asking about a kidney stones or UTI connections, maybe VA policies will change. They have after other studies were completed. Would appreciate any advice/comments.
