irilo

I was wondering if someone could explain to me like I am 5 years old, the difference between the Integrated DES and the Legacy DES. If you elect the LDES which, from what I am seeing, goes much quicker are you locked into that DOD rating forever? How does that effect the medically retired vs...

Hi all, I'm an ANG member who finally just got their LOD back after 13 months with a ILOD determination (yay!), and am struggling to figure out a timeline for next steps based on other NGB cases I've read on the forums. I've been told the AMRO has already met, and now the NARSUM and...

Is it worth it/am I able to ask my PCM if they can just go ahead with an IRILO at the next AMRO? They are talking about waiting until I show stability on my new medication, but I have had zero issues or complications and it’s already greatly improved my quality of life! I don’t want to have...

I just heard back that my IRILO was reviewed by NGB/SG and I was RTD with an ALC2 for one condition. The NARSUM addressed other potentially unfitting conditions as well, but the ALC2 only addresses one of the conditions. Is there a chance that NGB/SG will make a separate determination on the...

My apologies if you see this twice, I also posted this under Cardiac Conditions, I am just desperate for answers or help or even just an uplifting thought. "Hello! This is my first post and honestly, I'm not even completely sure what is going on. I am an AGR member, and I curtailed my orders...

Hello! This is my first post and honestly I'm not even completely sure what is going on. I am an AGR member, and I curtailed my orders last fall with a DOS of 15JAN25. I knew I wasn't able to schedule a SHPE until my latest x-ray last Thursday, but as I called to say I needed a SHPE ASAP because...

Hello, My therapist informed me that I was being sent to AMRO because I've been in treatment for over 12 months. She made a really big deal about it and how my commander has to write an impact statement and her NARSUM and all and how she sees people get kicked out and retained with no rhyme or...

Good morning, Active duty AF, very fit and avid runner, returned home from deployment a little over a year ago and now can't go up stairs without inhaler. I've been on a profile for over a year and my PCM informed me that I was now a code 37 because of an "asthma" diagnosis (still not sure its...

I know I'm being put up for a MEB (still in the early stages) and this was uploaded into my tricare portal. I'm more confused on the fit/unfit part. I had two conditions which I was reffered for does this mean that I was found fit for one and unfit for the other by the AMRO? "This Airman's...

Hey everyone. I’ve lurked around on here the last few months because I was seeking answers on how to get through the medical review process. I was stationed OCONUS and was desperately trying to get back stateside in time simply due to being sick of overseas life. In late 2021 I was diagnosed...
