husband's formal board is being scheduled, he gets the date tomorrow. he was found fit, contested, and now this.
for those who have been found fit, then contested to be found unfit - is it frowned upon if you are unable to attend the FPEB in person? my husband's referring condition to the MEB in the first place is severe migraines [4-6 times a week, depending] and long car travels and flights upset the migraines, greatly, and cause them to come on full force.
we have been told by members here that you can do this via telephone - but for those who have been through a FPEB, do you feel it was frowned upon that you did not show? do you feel your DOD rating was a certain number due to you not being there? there's no rating he is hoping for, he would be happy with 10% honestly - but just trying to get feedback from those who have been through the process. we are 5-7 hours from DC, but there is no way he can make the trip
