JodanAL, I experienced the same problem with my Endo. She would not state that I had any restrictions saying I would be retained and nothing to worry about. It wasn't until I was going through my eval with the VA as part of the MEB that I told the Dr doing my exam about my limitations and she...

JBrown7, I'm sorry to hear that your IPEB came back with 20%. That is what i thought mine was going to come back with as well. I would very much like to appeal mine as well to be found fit but i'm so scared to give up a retirement that so many others are having to appeal and fight to get. I...

Jason, thanks for the feedback. I have a couple of other questions and was hoping for some last bits of information. Could I or can't i still appeal and not on the grounds that i'm disagreeing with their decision of me being rated at 40% or my regulation of activities but more the fact that i'm...

Just wanted to post some updates. It's been awhile but I just received my findings from my PEB today. They rated me at 40% permanent retirement. I should feel lucky as most of whom I've seen on here have been having to appeal to get a rating of 40%. But I was really hoping to be able to stay...

Joshua, have you heard anything on your board yet? I'm in the same situation as you and i'm curious if you have found out anything yet from the board. My package hasn't been sent off yet but probably will be by next week sometime. w_ildjian, I see they gave you a return to duty so thats good...

I would like to make it to 20 but i don't know if that will happen or not seeing as how others are being rated. I don't know what the likely hood of the board returning me to duty is. If not then of course i am and will continue to push for the 40%. I will make sure that it is in my records that...

Thank you Ruptured Duck and Mike for the information. Ruptured Duck, you are correct, i am still in the MEB process. My package has not even been sent off yet. I still have to sit down with my commander to help him write my letter for the board. I have a appointment to meet with him tomorrow to...

I met with my liaison again this morning. Now I'm being told it's not because of my career field, it is strictly because I am type 1 diabetic that I have to go through this process. Since i do have to take injections, she showed me where if i were type 2 and taking pills i could through the fast...

I am active duty AF. I think my only option at this point is like you said for me to wait for the results and if I have to go before the formal board I can make sure my records show the regulation of activities for occupational as well as recreational. Also I think I am u der the legacy...

Also, i don't know if it makes a difference or not, but i had just returned from a deployment from Iraq in Nov 2010, then diagnosed in Jan 2011

Hello, I wish i would have found this site sooner, I was diagnosed as Type 1 in Jan this year, and now they are putting together my package to be sent off for the IPEB. I have over 14yrs active service (E-7) with no other unfitting conditions and PT scores are good. My diabetes are controlled...
