Hi Folks
Never used this forum or any other. I looking for some info to help. In the AF reserve component and on my 16 year. Recently was seen at the VA for PTSD from active duty years well before. During my physical PHA mental health review they flagged me on a depression med and another med that civilian psych put me on just a few weeks ago. I did not think anything of it when I spoke to the nurse. Now Im grounded to just Drill weekends, I can TDY until they see the records of the civilian psych appt and why I was put on this med. They told me worse case scenario Id be medboard - Im sure how that works in the reserve component. I know this - I dont want a med board. Im also being sent to get a psych eval at an active base.
What can I do? What are my options? Because it was a civilian doc can I still be medboard or just tossed out?
