You will find all sorts of information by searching "Chernobyl radiation effects."  It's looks rather interesting & so I'm going to read it all now.  It gives many different web sites to chose from.

I had attacks for years that I thought were gas.  Finally, I had a really bad attack.  I had severe pain on the right side of my chest, abdomen and back.  I felt like I had to breathe very shallow because any movement was excruciating.  I had terrible heartburn and vomited bile.

Each tissue of the body is more/less sensitive to radiation.  Each has a threshold where it is severely damaged and/or dies.\nHigh acute dosages result in damage to the nervous system and death follows shortly.  Symptoms include vomiting.\nA lesser dose will damage the crypt cells in the intestines (cells that reproduce a lot and replace those lost on a daily basis).  Over a 2 week (or so) period, the intestines will begin to develop holes as old cells are lost and new ones are not forthcoming.  The patient dies when the contents of the intestines move into the body cavity and massive infection sets in.\nA lesser dose (or where the patient survives the above) will kill the bone marrow cells which produce red blood cells.  Normal attrition of red blood cells (life span roughly 30 days) and the lack of replacement will result in death in roughly a month.  \nLesser doses can lead to other short term complications and in the long term cancer.  The outcome varies greatly on what organs received the radiation, in what amounts, for how long, etc.  Not as clear cut as higher dosages.

As their lungs filled … the patients became short of breath and increasingly cyanotic. After gasping for several hours they became delirious and incontinent, and many died struggling to clear their airways of a blood-tinged froth that sometimes gushed from their nose and mouth. It was a dreadful business.\n\n--Isaac Starr, 3rd year medical student, University of Pennsylvania, 1918.\n\nAll the genes of all influenza viruses in the world are being maintained in aquatic birds, and periodically they transmit to other species... The 1918 viruses are still being maintained in the bird reservoir. So even though these viruses are very ancient, they still have the capacity to evolve, to acquire new genes, new hosts. The potential is still there for the catastrophe of 1918 to happen again.\n\n--Dr. Robert Webster, Influenza Expert, Present Day.\n\nThe pair of quotes presented above were used to begin and end a short essay I wrote many years ago on The 1918 Spanish Flu Pandemic. Isaac Starr's words offer powerful testimonial to the harsh lethality of a killer stain of influenza, and Dr. Robert Websters observation reminds us that it would be dangerous to regard the events of 1918 as an isolated slice of history that we can safely file away and forget. \n\nIn the early part of 1995, as I cast around in search of the disease that would ultimately prove to be the true villian of the science thriller I was planning to write, influenza was scarcely on the radar scope of anyone but virologists specializing in the field of emerging diseases. Because influenza exists in the human population in an ever-present but relatively benign form, changing just a little from year to year, we tend, quite mistakenly, to think we understand the nature of the threat that it presents. \nBird Flu cannot be eradicated, we must learn to live with it\nDespite the apparent "novelty" of a strain of bird flu that can sweep across the globe and kill not only the domesticated foul that carries the virus causing the pandemic, but also those humans unfortunate enough to get too close to the sick birds they tend, finding influenza in domesticated birds is not the least bit uncommon. \n\nThe natural reservoir for influenza virus is in fact the intestines of water fowl. In particular, ducks habor the virus, and suffer no ill effects from doing so. Because these migratory birds are always on the move, and because they shed virus in the waterways that they inhabit, influenza virus travels widely and is easily transmitted from bird to bird. Because of this, domesticated birds, like the turkey and the chicken, which cross paths with the virus, become infected and habor the potential to transmit the virus to humans (for example, virus secreted onto the surface of eggs could end up infecting egg handlers-- for this reason, if bird handlers notice any of the following symptons in their birds they should immediately notify Federal or State animal health officials: sudden death; lack of energy and appetite; decreased egg production; soft-shelled or misshapen eggs; swelling; purple discoloration; nasal discharge; coughing, sneezing; lack of coordination and diarrhea). \n\nOften an intermediate host, the pig, is involved in the cross-species transmission of influenza. When this happens, the result is referred to as Swine Flu. Even so, the source of the virus is generally aquatic birds. \n\nMost strains of bird flu do not cross species and end up infecting humans. However the H5N1 strain that has in the last decade been known to infect humans, and kill them in 5 out of every 10 cases, clearly has surmounted the first of two barriers that must be cleared before a bird flu pandemic can take hold in the human population. The second barrier will be surmounted when this strain acquires the ability to jump from one human to another. This may never happen, and hopefully will not. But based on the history of pandemic flu, it seems more likely that this is just a matter of time.

Soon after you get salmonella off to the bathroom you will go. Diarehha mostly. Headaches, dry mouth. It only lasts about one day. AFter that life is normal again.

When you become sick, your body produces "antibodies". These antibodies fight off the individual pathogens. After these pathogens are destroyed, some of the antibodies remain in your body. If that particular pathogen ever returns, the antibodies will recognize it and attack it before it can manifest itself.

I used to live in Japan and I have been to Hiroshima. As horrible as it was I really think the bombs saved lives on both sides. I have met older Japanese who have told me about being trained to repel the invasion with bamboo spears as children. Even after Nagasaki an anti-surrender faction attempted a coup. A blockade might have been an alternative strategy but then a lot of Japanese would have starved to death. Don't forget that there were POWs and civilian internees that were dieing from disease and starvation at the time in Japanese camps. Truman's first responsibilty was to bring the war to it's earliest possible conclusion.

It depends, there are so many.  Did you just get sick?  Then it could be complications from a cold virus...pneumonia, bronchitis, etc.  Long term conditions like emphysema, fibrosis, asthma require medical treatment for the rest of your life, most likely

I'm sorry to tell you that the spread of pathogens is an ever present danger during and after any earthquake. Just look at the recent example in Pakistan, just a few months ago. \nThey are thankful my fellow American doctors helped as much as humanly possible!\nTake care and be safe !!!

On the morning of August 6, 1945, the United States Army Air Forces dropped the nuclear weapon "Little Boy" on the city of Hiroshima, followed three days later by the detonation of the "Fat Man" bomb over Nagasaki, Japan. The estimates of the combined death toll range from 100,000 to 220,000, with some estimates considerably higher when delayed deaths from radiation exposure are counted. More than 90% of the casualties were civilians.\n\nThe role of the bombings in Japan's surrender, as well as the effects and justification of them, have been subject to much debate. In the U.S., the prevailing view is that the bombings ended the war months sooner than would otherwise have been the case, saving many lives that would have been lost on both sides if the planned invasion of Japan had taken place[1]. In Japan, the general public tends to think that the bombings were needless as the preparation for the surrender was in progress in Tokyo[2].

I would guess anxiety/panic attack.  I was physically ill also for quite some time before my last attack.  The E.R. doesn't deal with mental health issues very well; they're always looking for a physical cause.  I'd suggest while you're waiting, seek the advise of a councelor who deals with mental health in your area.  Please don't wait long though, as anxiety can snowball and get out of control without help.  Good luck to you, and I hope you let us know how things work out.

If you are talking about the effects of radioactive material (alpha, beta and gamma particles) on the human body then in layman's terms prolonged exposure would lead to burns, radioactive sickness - the bodies organs deteriorate and collapse, hair and teeth start to fall out and various cancers and other serious heavy metal / radioactivity induced conditions develop, etc.

this is the report on the one dropped on hiroshima it was the same as 12.5 thousand tons of tnt think tiny in comparison to the monsters now in the inventory Intense thermal heat emitted by the fireball caused severe burns and loss of eyesight. Thermal burns of bare skin occurred as far as 3.5 kilometers from ground zero (directly below the burst point). Most people exposed to thermal rays within 1-kilometer radius of ground zero died. Tile and glass melted; all combustible materials were consumed. \nBlast. An atomic explosion causes an enormous shock wave followed instanteneously by a rapid expansion of air called the blast; these represent roughtly half the explosion's released energy. Maximum wind pressure of the blast: 35 tons per square meter. Maximum wind velocity: 440 meters per second. Wooden houses within 2.3 kilometers of ground zero collapsed. Concrete buildings near ground zero (thus hit by the blast from above) had ceilings crushed and windows and doors blown off. Many people were trapped under fallen strunctures and burned to death. \nRadiation. People exposure within 500 meters of ground zero was fatal. People exposed at distances of 3 to 5 kilometers later showed symptoms of aftereffects, including radiation-induced cancers. exploded

I cannot imagine what this must be like for you and my heart goes out to you.  I'm sure you've 'tried it all' by now but I do have two thoughts that you might consider:\n\nFirst: can you determine whether in the weeks prior to becoming sick, did you become exposed to something new?  Building materials in a new house?  Mold?  Chemicals or fumes from paint, body piercing, tattoos, etc?  I know it's been a long time now and you may not be able to reconstruct the past entirely (but perhaps there are times when you feel better or the symptoms disappear??)\n\nSecond, I believe very very strongly that the additives in the things we eat can wreak havoc with our bodies.  A long time ago I read a book called "Diet for a Poisoned Planet", and it dealt with all the toxins in our water, the sulfa drugs and antibiotics that are placed into the feed given to livestock but which is not regulated by the FDA, and the preservatives and additives found in things as simple as a box of Frosted Flakes.\n\nThe case studies presented by the author were astounding, and it caused me to be more alert to changes in my general health and to try tracing those changes back to things I've eaten.\n\nHave you done a food journal at all?  I know they're a pain to maintain but maybe it will start to show a pattern.  Everything you put in your mouth and the time of day should be recorded.  It may be something as simple as sugar-free gum or a tic-tac.  \n\nThen see if you can find a nutritionist who will work with you.  Consider a detoxification program.  I have a friend who goes to a naturopath, I think, and through some blood screens they decided she had some sensitivities to certain types of foods.  So they eliminated just about everything and found a base diet for her to eat until she'd gone through this cleansing process (that took a long time and she did have to buy special foods and nutrition supplements). \n\nThen they started adding back some of the foods to see how she tolerated them.  \n\nI hope you find the right combination of solutions to get relief.  I'll say a prayer for you... good luck!
