Hi :)

Well it's time for my re-evaluation. I have to report to Dover AFB in late January. The orders state to report to the Psych. clinic at 0800; no other info was provided besides the date, time, and address (and to bring my med. records). So when I show up at 0800, will I just meet with the psych. and that's it? SHould I expect to see a PEBLO at some point?

Thanks! (I'm a bit nervous, and for those who are wondering, I received 30% TDRL for Bipolar and was rated 70% by the VA)
 
Hey I also am in the process of a Med board for Bipolar 1, I should hear from the IPEB by next month. I'm a little worried of the fact that I could get only 30%, which is from what I hear is the usual rating for bipolar disorder and i have a family to take care of. Although you and one other person on here got 70%, was there anything in particular why you got that much? Any advise you could give me when I go do my VA claim?
Thank you and good luck
 
Mine isn't from Bi-polar, but PTSD, and I was intially rated at 50% for that and 10% for my ankle having no cartilage in it. I was also placed on TRDL and my re-eval is this week. My questions are 1) how does this work? Do I get to review the narrative summary before it's submitted? 2) Why am I required to go to physical therapy for evaluation for my ankle? Physical therapy isn't going to be able to x-ray or MRI my ankle to see if it's gotten worse or stayed the same. It just seems to make more sense to see the orthopedics than to go to to physical therapy. But what do I know? I'm just worried that they'll drop me down to 10% for my ankle and 10% for my PTSD (even though I'm still being treated for it).
