I posted this over at SOCNET also but thought of you gentlemen here too.
I found this on one of the support sites I go to as I have a hereditary variant of this. There are approximately 6 or 7 variants. I figured I'd share on this site. Thank you all for your service and sacrifice.
"Over the years, the APF has fought hard for Veterans with exposure to "Agent Orange." Finally, here's some important information for Veterans.
Porphyria is one of the 14 diseases and disorders presumed by the U.S. Veterans Administration to be the result of Agent Orange exposure in "Boots-on-the-Ground" Vietnam Veterans. Veterans diagnosed with any health condition on the "presumptive disease list" may be entitled to medical care and other benefits.
If this fits your experience, please contact the APF. We will be receiving pertinent information on the subject and will forward it to you. 1- 866- APF- 3635
Thank You Veterans for Serving our Country and Protected our Freedoms!"
