migraines

Air Force Active Duty just hit 10 years. Currently my paperwork went up to the IPEB on April 14th and didn't have my Migraines listed, as there wasn't as much information as there should have been and I have an incompetent PCM. I recently got tests back with more proof of the migraines and...

Hello all, So I just got my permanent profile printed off today. I am a P3 with the condition reading “Bilateral Intractable Headaches” has anyone else had this happen? If so let me know how it went. Kind of shocking.

So I am more than likely going to be referred to a PEB here soon for chronic migraines. With that said, it looks like if my case gets sent to a PEB they will evaluate more than just what I’m being boarded for. Is this correct?
