Good evening, I posted here a while ago about possibly being placed on a med board from a service academy. I got placed on the board finally (I think). I got placed on administrative leave without pay and placed through the IDES system because of prior service. The Naval Academy was quick to...

Hello all, I'll post my timeline thus far and a bit of background information. Hopefully it helps someone out. Referred conditions: Migraine headaches, PTSD, Unspecified Anxiety Disorder September 2018 - Med Board initiated. February 2019 - NARSUM completed and package sent off to DOD...

I was told I may get Medically retired do to my MEB being 2 different diagnoses but they took one diagnose off and just Med boarding me for Bipolar II disorder. So now may get medically separated but its still possible that i get medically retired. What should I expect? I finished both my C&P...

I feel like I already know the answer to this but want to confirm because I feel like a fellow soldier told me wrong. I am going through the IDES/MEB/PEB process currently. I filed my letter with intent to file a claim with the VA in June of 2018 but just now starting the VA Disability claim as...

I was found unfit on March 23rd 2019, Does anyone know anything about PEBLOs being able to view unofficial findings? Someone in my division told me their PEBLO or IDES attorney could look at their unofficial findings after they were found unfit. Any light shed on this is greatly appreciated...

AGR National Guard, referred to IDES for herniated disc & PTSD. Have LOD for motorcycle accident and PTSD. 26 years over 20 active. Tricare Prime Remote. Should I have my primary care physician (PCP) complete DBQs and upload to the VA website? Would my PCP do the NARSUM? My Psychiatrist could...

Hi All, I was found unfit (didn't fight the IRILO and chose IDES) and my VA claim was filed on 15 JAN 19. My PEBLO estimated I would be out by end of April but there's no way that's going to happen at this point and I have a job in Dallas with a 1 JUN start date. I've been pretty patience up...

Hello everyone, I have just started the whole MEB process two weeks ago. I met with my attorney and he informed me not to write a personal statement. I then attended a DTAPS class where they told all of us that we should submit a personal statement after they found out most of our attorneys...

20 Dec 2018 - Medical board case has been referred to the PEB for action on MOL 4 Mar 2019 - Package signed and sent to PEB Does this mean I was already found unfit? If not, how long will it take to find out?

This is an update to my previous post found here. TL;DR: I was put on a MEDBOARD by my orthopedic surgeon on 11 July, 2018 after a failed labral repair surgery of my right hip. I received my finding back from the VA and PEB on Monday 28 January. I was found unfit for duty. The DoD is...

Hello All! I was wondering if anyone can give any insight as to where I would be in my process I started everything in October and finished and got my PEB submitted in December. I have done all C&P Exams and reviewed my notes and the last time I talked to my VA rep she said that It has...

I just had an MEB initiated for asthma. I am at over 15 years and feel like I am about to be completely railroaded as I think they will only bring me back at 10%, screwing me out of retirement and leaving me jobless at the upper end of my thirties. Some background - My PCM thought I may have...

I served 5 years active duty at ft hood and did two tours to Afghanistan. I have been blown up and have a blown disc (been issued a back brace and medication) have very bad PTSD and have panic attack multiple times a week.been diagnosed with a serious depression and anxiety. I switch to the...

Hi to everyone! I apologize if I'm posting in the wrong forum. I decided to do this thread due to not finding anyone or at least me not finding anything for TMJ cases for MEB/PEB around the site. I know how it feels to stress and rev up the anxiety in doing the whole process and the long...

I hope this information is helpful to some of you going through the process. I have been plodding through the process, but it seems to be moving along relatively quickly. I was initially referred to MEB/PEB for my spinal fusion and the PTSD was added during the MEB before my package was sent...

This DOD Directive Type Memo (DTM) updates the guidelines for time processing of the Integrated Disability Evaluation System. (The DTM is stated as "DTM 18-004;" This seems like a new naming convention for DTM issuances. I have to think this is based on "18" being the year and, perhaps, "004"...

So as the title reads I am worried lol, I have been waiting for about 70 days for the VA to cut some ratings. I have been in "preparation for decision step" on Ebenefits for almost a month now. My PEBLO is never around to answer any questions but I have been told the VA is still working on my...

As the title reads, its a long story but my commander decided to try and chapter me. The medboard and the chapter paperwork started at the exact same time. My question is due to the way the regulation reads should the chapter should fall off? It says unless going through chapter 7, 10, or 14...
