With so many brain injured soldiers returning from Iraq and Afganistan, are drs. seeing symptoms of KLS within the diagnosis of PTS or at least along side of it.  If not, why not?  Are the symptoms of PTS such as nightmares and hallucinations actually part of a KLS-type injury to the hypothalmus?  What kind of treatment is the VA following with their PTS patients? Is there anything in the protocol that KLS reporters could use?  What about medication prescribed by VA docs?  Rehabilitation?
