I’m undergoing an Air Force MEB for asthma.
My current profile restricts me from doing a large portion of my job; I needed this profile when the asthma first started. After treatment and taking a lung test that came back normal, not only do I no longer need the profile, I’ve been doing things that the profile restricts me from with ease. I plan on asking my PCM to release these restrictions at our next appointment.
My 1185 was written shortly after diagnosis, while I required duty restrictions, and recommends ‘do not retain’. Despite my progress, the commander will not update the 1185.
I’ve explained my progress in the comments block and have character statements from my leadership explaining the asthma does not affect me while on medication. My question: How much will the CIS influence the 'retain' or 'do not retain' recommendation by the AMRO board, and ultimately AFPC's final decision?
Thanks!
