Idiopathic intracrainal hypertension

[mar_68x]

I was dx with idiopathic intracrainal hypertension also known as pseudo tumor cerebri in 2008. I tried staying in the Army but I've gotten worse. My limitations don't allow my to function as a Soldier. Since my condition is rare, I'm having a difficult time figuring out what I'll b rated at. I also have tinnitus, tmj, scolosis. Any info would b great! Thx guys!

Even though it is rare condition, the MEB doc can write up a good diagnosis report. You can review this in AR 635-40 and AR 40-501, these regulations will help give you a better idea of what could be the ratings, also do a search for VASRD or click this link, http://evans.amedd.army.mil/meb/VASRD.htm

Good luck
