Thanks Jason. I think I am going to agree to the PEB's findings but ask for a reconsideration of my VA ratings. I don't know if it will push my overall rating any higher but the mental health problems are definitely service connected and should be rated as such. Just dreading the wait it will...

Congrats on getting your NARSUM! I met with the MEB Dr. Who is supposed to be completing my NARSUM on 30 Nov. Anyone know if it should be taking this long? I email my peblo and he just keeps saying it some times takes awhile. BS! Any suggestions on what I can do? or should I just keep waiting...

@gunmate1, The answer to your question is yes. You will still get a check from the va. If you recieve severance and was not combat related you have to pay it back. The VA will deduct the amount based on the % for the unfit condition for which you recieved severance.(I.E. your back). If they rate...

Dusty19D, Refer them to AR 600-9 ch.3 paragraph 3-2(d). I have had to refer my current and previous COC to this regulation a couple of times for the same thing. It has kept them from flagging me or placing me on the ow program while pending the outcome of my meb. It also kept them from giving...

Frator, I have been a recruiter for 10+ years and we are starting to see more and more TDRL cases being returned to active duty. You will not pay back any money recieved while on TDRL. Hope this helps! If you have any other questions just let me know.

Being MED Boarded for Subtalar ankle fusions on both feet with a non-fusion on the right foot. I have already taken my physical through VA but have not done my NARSUM yet. I have been diagnosed with OSA with C-Pap and I am being sent to a pulmonologist because my PCM believes I recieved lung...

I recently took my VA physical for compensation and benefits. At the physical the Dr. recommended I go to my primary care and recieve a referral to a sleep study for possible sleap apnea and that my hearing loss needed to be checked by an ENT specialist to rule out a tumor. He however did not...

flrdnk, I am currently going through an MEB for Osteoarthritis in the joints in my feet. However I did have both of them fused. I have also been diagnosed with it in my right knee. I have 12.5 years active duty and the doctors have told me that I will probably require knee replacements at 40...

Thanks Jason! Believe me I think that $200 is going to go a long way. I was just kind of shocked that they wouldnt request the docs with an authorization for release. But I am all about taking care of it myself. So far browsing through this site is extremely helpful. Thanks for what you do. So...

Just wondering if anyone has gone through a MEB/PEB for having both the Left and Right subtalar joints fused? Im currently in the Army with 12 1/2 years. Over the last 2 years I have had to get both of my subtalar joints fused in my feet due to osteoarthritis. Now both of my knees also have...
