conditions masquerading as PTSD. Finally  the authors touch on other subjects concerning
returning veterans  including pain  disability  facing the end of a career  sleep problems  
suicidal thoughts  violence    and mefloquine toxidrome. Each case study includes a case
presentation  diagnosis and assessment  treatment and management  outcome and case resolution 
and clinical pearls and pitfalls. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and Related Diseases in Combat
Veterans is a valuable resource for civilian and military mental health practitioners  and
primary care physicians on how to treat patients returning from active war zones.
