Does Anyone Else Here Believe Fibro Is Caused By C5 Teflon?

A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭
Marlborough, MA

I once watch Dark Waters about Dow and it's pollutants and it's effect on cows. I then happened across an article that many army women had fibromyalgia. They were all exposed to the same C5 Teflon that was sprayed on tanks and tactical wear. I truly believe that has attacked our nervous system. I'm not sure why it leaves us with those sore points on our arms and thighs and neck.

Extreme heavy chemicals can cause damage to humans. A family member was in the front lines in the Vietnam war. At age 65 he developed Parkinson’s Disease. The doctor said it was related to the chemical agent Orange.
I know that people who have fibromyalgia ,have trouble with regular chemicals, like chlorine ammonia etc
