Hey,
I'm new to the forum and have quite a few questions in which i don't see on here. I was Diagnosed with MS in FEB and have been having a rough time pushing my paperwork threw. I am starting to make some progress with my paperwork but the WWSC(Wounded Warrior Support Center) gave me orders to go to WTU 1 MAY. I dont know if going to WTU will speed up my process or slow it down. My chain of command is very supportive in letting me do anything i need to do to speed up the process with the medical personel here. I am an E-5 with 3 1/2yrs of service and 14 months in Iraq. I did go threw an MTBI when i was hit by multiple IED's whiel in Iraq. Now for my questions.
1. Has everyone's MEB process been so hard to do?
2. Has anyone received a rating of higher than 30% for MS?
3. Does the VA rate MS and its supporting symptoms different?
4. What kind of rating does the army see TBI/MTBI?
5. What can speed this SLOW process up?
6. And has anyone heard how the new process with all the physicals and everything going to be both the VA and the ARMY's physical to evaluate a soldier?
Any awnsers to these questions will be greatly appreciated.
