Hopefully this is the right location for this question. Recently was referred into IDES and began my MEB 29 June for SI issues, three herniated/degenerating discs (DDD) and fairly severe GAD. At this point, I am sick of sucking it up and working through my pain and intend to push for an unfit...
Hey guys,
Just wanted to get on here and share my story so that others may prevent themselves from entering the same situation.
Back in March of 2013 I injured myself PTing on base (Severe high ankle sprain). I reported the the Naval hospital where they gave me an injection of ibuprofen and...
My packet was sent to the IPEB on 27JAN and still no answer on fit/unfit determination. How long has it been taking others out there to get their notification? Thanks.
So my case was submitted to IPEB on 28SEP2016 and I finally just called the VA and they said my case was recieved 08NOV2016 and I called again today and they have my proposed ratings that were completed 17NOV2016. They wouldn't tell me what my ratings are. From what I read if you make it to the...

I've had my reports for a while, and I have a ton of questions. I've posted in this forum twice with no response, and I'm really just needing some help. I can provide any information that may be needed.
Hello all, I just got my NARSUM today with 3 unfitting conditon PTSD, Sleep Disorder and Herniated Disc my question is when this goes to the PEB for review do they only look at the NARSUM only to make there decsion since from my understanding its a summary for my medical record or would they...
Last information that I got (no thanks to PEBLO) was that my case is listed as "QA READY." Calling the PEB allowed me to find out that I'm "Pre VA." This was all a couple of weeks ago. I'm up to 78 days now, and still no fit or unfit rating. Is this a bad sign? PEBLO continues to say "no...
I'm officially unfit. I was found unfit on July 27 2016. My case has been at the VA for almost 1 month so now I'm just waiting for them to rate me and send my ratings to the IPEB. My PEBLO said the VA should send my ratings to the IPEB any day now.
How long does it take for the IPEB to rate me...
hey y'all, my packet was recieved by the IPEB on July 19th, my peblo said it would be back in 14 days. Today's the 14th day and I was told the memo hasn't moved since July 25th. Can anyone explain what that means or why it would be taking so long?
Hey, my case was accepted to the PEB june 8th and has said pending decision approval ever since. I've been trying to find out why it is taking so long because others on here seem to have gotten their unfit memo in a few weeks after it was accepted. Yesterday I called my regional office and they...
Finally, my ebenies updated and had a second claim on June 29th that initially was "Under Review". Within a few hours the second claim's status went to "Preparation for Decision" with an estimated completion date of 8/14/16 - 8/23/16. When I spoke with my MedBoard office (I would say PEBLO but...
Hi all,
We have been waiting since January for an answer regarding my husband's case. We still have not heard if he is fit or unfit, but assuming by the length of time it has taken, we believe he will be unfit.
His compensation claim was closed 6/1/16 and updates read "development letter...
I will try to condense this in hopes someone will have some guidance. I just started my IDES/MEB process, after several attempts from my providers and specialist to diagnose me one came up with hypermobility disorder. I say providers because I had to request a change from my previous one for...
As the title states, I want to know if a failed PFT test will automatically be found as an unfitting condition.
I already have 2 unfitting mental health conditions, but just in case something stupid happens and the PEB people try to find them both fit, I want to know if I can fall back on my...

My husband has been on limited duty since February 2015 due to ulcerative colitis and UC-related arthritis. He's had two flares while waiting and has taken prednisone for each one. Since the second dose of prednisone and after regularly taking probiotics, he is doing better. He still has regular...
