I am in the same stage as you. My packet was IPEB on 12 September. Last update I got from my PEBLO was it was pending vote as of 19 SEPT. I called her this morning and she is going to check the system today and call me back this afternoon. Hope everything works out for you.
 
update: found out that my packet was not sent to PEB when I was told it was going to be for some reason the server went down and they didn't get it sent until last Thursday so more time waiting. hopefully it will speed up soon this is getting crazy specially since I am 48 days behind.
 
Hey there, I'm at Lee also. My VA exams were sent from the VA Rep to my PEBLO on 22 August. I'm anxiously awaiting my NARSUM even though I'm hearing it's about a 30 day turn around. Hope your packet gets through the PEB fast.
 
FightLikeAGirl who is your PEBLO. When did you start your process? it took about two weeks after they sent exams to get to see the draft of my NARSUM. It is crazy how they don't keep us updated here at Ft. Lee. I can never get ahold of my PEBLO which does not help.
 
My PEBLO is Ms. Blocker. She's usually pretty good with keeping me updated when I ask questions. I've gotten helpful updates from the VA rep as well, he's very quick to respond to my emails. The biggest lag I had was that he was on leave when I first met Ms. Blocker so I had to wait to get an appointment with him.

This forum has kept me sane for a few months now even though I haven't really posted before yesterday. I've been reading as much as I can, it seems to help a lot.

This is my timeline so far:

MEB profile signed 7/11/2016
Med record turn in 7/13/2016
Initial PEBLO meeting 7/14/2016
VA MSC initial meeting with claims list 8/1/2016
C&P Exams 8/9/2016 - 9/20/2016
Exams sent to MEB doc 9/22/2016

She is mine to and have not been very helpful to me I been having to go to her boss to get answers. I know this is a crazy ? but if you don't mind what is you rank? I been in the system a while. Maybe she will start informing more hopefully. Also what is your referring conditions? Mine is leg and back
 
also your case is moving fast by the looks of it.

Hmm I wonder why she isn't being very helpful to you. I'm an E7, although I hope rank does not play a role in her interactions with Soldiers.

My referring conditions are lower back and bilateral knees. It took forever for my MEB profile to be written. The MEB was recommended back in March by ortho and it took until July to get my PCM to send it up for signature. Now that I'm actually in the process it's going a bit better than I expected. I hope you hear something soon on yours.
 
Ok well I guess it is not the rank due to the fact I am a E-7 also. Yeah mine has taken awhile also in the VA stage for C and P exam results to get to Dr. Washington. It seems like every time I try to call she does not answer, does not return calls, and does not return emails so it gets aggravating when I don't get no answers. Plus it seems like she is never in her office. I went through the MAR2 process to reclass so mine has been in the works for awhile. Hopefully the speed picks up soon.


my referring conditions was lower back and right ankle
 
Hello, I am at Fort Lee as well. My MEB began May 8, 2016, this is the date I received MEB memorandum. My IDES dashboard reads PEB findings complete (green check mark) however there is not a date next to the green check mark. I have the same PEBLO as FlightLikeaGirl, she stated that my PEB was "probably" waiting signature in DC. Frustrated as always.
 
Any updates from either of you guys case. Mine was sent to the VA for ratings on the 17th. this needs to pick up some speed that is for sure.
 
Nope... still waiting on my narsum. Apparently they sent some out to Ft Stewart to help eliminate the backlog and mine was in that batch. I have a note on Tricare online that says the narsum was produced but that was 11 days ago. I'm getting antsy. Glad yours is moving though!!
 
Congrats!!! Very happy for you. Do you know your percentages yet?
 
So I went by the PAD office today and found out my narsum was completed 19 October. Still waiting on the 3947 (I think that's the one?). I read the narsum and it listed my back and both knees as not meeting retention standards which is good news. However the narsum downplayed my BH c&p and stated since I'm decently well controlled with meds that I have no occupational or social problems. Not sure when I can challenge that as it's not a referred condition. Anyway I guess I'll get the official call to review it sometime next week. I had to request a couple admin changes (my middle name was wrong and my third deployment wasn't listed).

I was quite surprised, next step is to wait for retirement orders, out process (10 days), PTDY (20 days) and transitional leave (44 days) I will be so glad to leave Fort Lee.

I suggest you begin doing research on this forum what to expect for VA ratings for your knees and back. Was it your lumbar, cervical or thoracic. Understand that the ROM is used as the primary rating. Did you receive a copy of your C&P? I received a 10% VA rating for my lower back and 30% for cervical.
 
I just got off chat with VA due to my status changing from prep for decision to review of evidence. they said they need more information from the VA in Richmond. This is getting crazy I am already 55 days behind and now will be longer. I tried to ask what they needed and they would not say. I guess more waiting for me on my end. why cant this move more smoothly for personnel that are getting out on medical.
