    Do this look like I was still fit for duty

    Hi, I'm trying to get others opinions about being labeled "fit for duty" when the Dr notes seem to contradict this. I don't want to put to much out there and want to keep this simple to understand. Came back from Iraq in 2005 where I was sniper for that entire year. Lots of documented combat...

    Referred to FFD for recurrent Rhabdomyolysis

    Long story short I’ve had three cases of rhabdomyolysis in the last 6 months. Two were pretty severe with one CK over 70,000 and the other over 120,000. My primary care during this last episode activated my order for a Fit For Duty. I called to schedule the FFD and the order was terminated by...

    IDES vs LDES

    I was wondering if someone could explain to me like I am 5 years old, the difference between the Integrated DES and the Legacy DES. If you elect the LDES which, from what I am seeing, goes much quicker are you locked into that DOD rating forever? How does that effect the medically retired vs...

    Do all unfitting conditions need to be on my 0819, or just the one that started a MEB?

    I'm starting my MEB process and my PEBLO is seemingly only wanting to put one condition on my 0819, it only rates 10%. I know that I can get the VA to rate me later on in the process, but will other unfitting conditions be added to the DOD rating still, or not because they are not on the 0819?

    Can I have conditions added after my 0819 is sent forward?

    Sorry if the title is confusing. I was just notified of a full MEB on Friday, and yesterday (Tuesday) I had my initial MEB briefing with my PEBLO. My PEBLO mentioned I need to get all of my records sent over via MHS Genesis from civilian doctors. One of my doctors (civilian) says I possibly...

    Just got notified I am likely going to be MEB'd. For my DoD rating, do they look at JUST the driving condition, or secondary conditions as well?

    My RILO was sent up with "Do Not Retain", so I am doing some preparation for the likely outcome of a MEB. My condition on its own only rates 20% tops. Does this mean this is the most I can get from the DoD rating? Or can I also couple in secondary conditions with the DoD rating (ROM, migraines...

    Out of area SkillBridge during MEB??

    Is it possible and or FEASIBLE to do a SkillBridge across the country from where my MEB is being processed? Am I able to coordinate via email, and do my C&P exams at a clinic near my SkillBridge location? Or is the only feasible option to do an online/local SkillBridge where I’m at?
