Hello All,

Due to a number of medical conditions that occurred/worsened during my last deployment:

Bipolar Disorder
PTSD
Lower Back Problems
Joint Problems
Tinnitus
Hearing Loss
Sleep Apnea (Severe)

I have been told by the Nvy that I must choose between electing a Line of Duty (LOD) or Medical Retention Review (MRR) page 13. I have been seen by the VA Hospital since December of 2011 for these various issues. I have also worked with my County Veterans Service OFficer to file a VA disability claim. I am not interested in staying in the navy after 8.5 years of service.

I have not lost any time of employment as I didn't have a job to come back to after this deployment, not ESGR related, so don't have any eligibility for incapacitation pay.

My question is, which program is better for me as the service member.
