Wilting tops of tomato plants

Crazy....I had a friend of mine this year give me these polish tomato plants...Well I am having the same wilting at the top issue as you. However I looked closely on the stems coming up from the ground and it looks like there are tiny gnat like bugs on them...I spray so I dont know for sure, could be dirt kicking up from watering. I learned something though. If you have a good system and your plant thrive every year DONT take plants from other people or at least plant them far away. I literally planted 30 of these polish tomatoes and all of the have willted top with much darker green color at the top with some of the leaves not only wilting but shrivelling up. Everything below the top looks great and I have tomatoes on them that look fine also. I thought maybe it was some kind of mosaic disease...you dont by chance happen to smoke do you
