    I got out in late 91 after the war. I had symptoms soon after. And I went to the VA. But they weren't overly bad so I never really pursued it much. Now 20 years later I am receiving 80% pension for depression and heart disease. But the fatigue, Joint and muscle pain, Memory difficulties seem to have suddenly exploded. It's tiring just to walk up a flight of stairs. Is there a precedent for the symptoms of whatever it is to take that long to get worse?

    BTW the VA can't find my records from the 90s.
