I was hoping someone could help me. I'm not very far into this process. I posted something similar in another forum, but I feel like they are avoiding sending me to a PEB so that they can make me PCS first and was hoping for any kind of guidance.
I was a top sailor, I put on first in 4 years and was picked up for STA-21. About a year into the STA-21 program I started having severe issues with sleep. This led to depression, I then lost a friend to suicide which made that worse and my serious sleep issues we finally found out were from undiagnosed narcolepsy. After sending the medical paperwork to the nearest MTF I was recommended for LIMDU and all I have so far is an AMERB report. (I'm pissed about the back pain because that was a fuck up on my civilian doctors part. I don't have chronic back pain, I have piriformis syndrome.)
The report is just for Placement on LIMDU but says for my treatment plan:
NARCOLEPSY: EVALUATION COMPLETE, INTEND TO RECOMMEND PEB AFTER MEMBER EXECUTES 105 ORDERS.
MAJOR DEPRESSION: EVALUATION BY MTF PROVIDER AND ENDORSEMENT OF NETWORK/CIVILIAN PROVIDER FINDINGS. MH ADDENDUM.
BACK PAIN: CHRONIC, NEEDS FURTHER CHARACTERIZATION. DUTY LIMITATIONS BELOW ENTERED CONSERVATIVELY PENDING
ADDITIONAL HISTORY AND LIKELY FURTHER MTF EVALUATION.
The naval message says in regards to orders:

I was told earlier this week that I would be getting PCS orders to a MTF(it's about 4-5 hours away) and when I asked why it was because there isn't a billet here for me. (NOT because I needed medical care. I have a fantastic sleep specialist here and 2 VA clinics within 30 minutes). My chain of command supports them moving me because they don't like me coming into the unit and having nothing to do. They feel like I need to "Earn" my paycheck. I do what ever random tasking they have for me but it's not enough for a full-time job.
I know that I am not in a nuclear billet and I understand that I don't exactly have a job here, but the stress of selling my house and moving my family 4-5 hours away with the possibility of being found unfit and separated within a year is ridiculous. I really would prefer to just stay here until I know for sure what's going to be happening. I don't care if I have to go to the MTF for a few weeks at a time and do whatever testing they want. But making me PCS forces me to choose between uprooting my life with no idea of whats going to happen or geo-baching for an unknown period of time all because I don't "Earn" my paycheck.
I'm frustrated and upset. I'm not fit for any of jobs in my rate, so if they do PCS me I'm just going to be in a LIMDU holding div and doing the exact same shit I am here of coming in and doing random stuff.
I'm scared and stressed. This entire process is frustrating and I just want to avoid unnecessary stress.
