Gulf War Illness Symptom Severity and Onset: A Cross-Sectional Survey.

CONCLUSIONS: This cross-sectional sample of self-selected veterans with GWI demonstrates a high current burden of disease and reveals symptom onset patterns. The information from this study can be used to better understand the long-term trajectory of GWI and be integrated into the treatment and diagnosis of impacted veterans. It can also be used as historical deployed health data and inform the future medical care of combat veterans experiencing health effects from war exposures.
