Make sure to get with the ODC ASAP if there are any discrepancies. During MEB Phase, the board will make a recommendation, which can be rebutted, to move your case to PEB Phase, or return you to duty. There it gets looked at a couple times. I'm just entering the PEB Phase. My first hand...

I'm in the same boat! I could barely bend over during my exam. The examiner put my ROM as 80deg. Your examiner marked you down as being able to bend over almost all the way, not just the 15deg. I had to search for clarification for my situation as well. The VA told me that they can't do...

Took 21 days for my general exam to get uploaded

AD Air Force. Referred condition was lower back pain. This is a severe understatement. Currently trying to have my referred condition terminology changed to DDD. Not sure why they didn't do that to begin with, but it is causing problems with my board considering me unfit. I'm confused why...

Has anyone been successful in utilizing the skillbridge program while going through an MEB? I'm trying now and no one seems to have solid information for me. The hardest part being is that they need a solid separation date, which is impossible to pinpoint. Currently going through C&P exams.

I experienced the exact same situation as you minus the hyperflxibility. Chronic hip and back pain. Went from Chiro, to PT, to constant injections(TFESI with RF has helped the most with mobility). The Pain in constant and the spasms are fully incapacitating. Code 37 6 January. I'm currently...

11yrs AD AF I've had hip and back problems for 4+ years after a mishap on a deployment. I've only had a handful of pain free days in that same time. Being stubborn as most of us on here are, i pushed through, having crippling spasms every three weeks, each fit lasting almost two weeks. After...
