INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -
About 60 members of Army Re
serve units from Indiana have
complained of mysterious illness
es since returning from Persian
Gulf duty and Army officials con
firmed Wednesday they are
studying the ailments.
Reported symptoms include
hair loss, muscle aches and chron
ic fatigue, officials said. Other
symptoms include aching teeth
and gums, and thick saliva.
"It was so bad that when 1
showered, both my hands would
be covered with hair," reservist
Sgt. Lori Rosalius said in a tele-
Members of units from Indiana report
symptoms following Persian Gulf duty
phone interview. She said she felt
so ill shortly after returning to the
United States last June that she
thought she was "dying from
some disease."
Mrs. Rosalius, 28, of Crescent
City, TIL, near the Indiana line,
consulted two doctors and a nutri
tionist before she found any relief.
The complaints have been lim
ited to about 60 members of three
combat support units under the
the 123rd U.S. Army Reserve
Command based in Indianapolis,
said Steve Stromvall, spokesman
for the Army Reserve Command
in Atlanta. Those units were de
ployed to five locations in Saudi
Arabia.
Army officials were trying to
trace other units that served in the
same areas to determine whether
similar complaints have been re
ported, Stromvall said.
