    How early is a lawyer useful

    I was recently notified that I would be going through a full MEB. The letter to my PEBLO said “Refer to IPEB” case. Please do NOT submit to AFPC/DPANM as a “Return to Duty” case...assuming that means I'm on my way out. At what point does a lawyer come into play and what can they do that I cannot...

    What have I missed??? What else do I need to do?

    My case was recalled from a SECAF appeal, but the AF medical system has such poor control of paperwork that they completely lost my case, I did not receive severance, I was not discharged, I continued to serve as if nothing had happened, but they finally realized that they lost my case and just...

    What have I missed??? What else do I need to do?

    They chose to discharge me without benefits at both the informal board and the formal board, stating that my symptoms were incompatible with military service, but since they did not match up to a VSARD code, they did not give me a retirement. I appealed to the SECAF, after 6 months they recalled...

    What have I missed??? What else do I need to do?

    Strange to find this post. I have similar symptoms beginning in 2009. I was initially diagnosed with Hypokalemic Periodic Paralysis in the ER, but the later docs said it was so rare that it was unlikely, but after a million tests they kind of shrugged their shoulders and walked away. They just...

    Question on med benefits expiring when asking for a formal PEB

    If your husband is going to a FPEB, he will not be released from active duty until up to 90 days after the results of the FEB findings (assuming he accepts them and does not appeal again). Because he is still on active duty he will get a new ID card. If he is an officer, they just print them up...

    MEB for epilepsy but the symptoms are not epilepsy

    I got news this week that my SECAF appeal is being recalled and I am getting a new MEB. The informal board originally booted me w/20% rating, & the formal board lowered it to 0% & the boot. Now they are going to pull the whole package back and start from scratch.

    medication side effects

    Is there any provision for an increased rating percentage if symptoms were initially caused by medications perscribed at the base clinic?

    MEB for epilepsy but the symptoms are not epilepsy

    The VA Diagnostic Code they gave me is hyphenated 8199-8911. I called the lawyers in Texas, but apparently they only have 4 that serve as the defense for the entire Air Force and 2 of them are out at the moment. They did not have time to review my case before the 10 days expired, so I gave the...

    MEB for epilepsy but the symptoms are not epilepsy

    I just received my IPEB results of 20% rating discharge with separation pay for "epilepsy like" symptoms. I have until Monday to say if I want to appeal or not. Any advice? My story follows: I woke up and started getting dressed to go to the gym. As I was leaning over and started to pull my...
