I had an inguinal hernia repair about a year before I joined and all was well until the site started progressively more and more painful. I first went to see my PCM and after my second appointment was referred to General Surgery for an evaluation. After being told I dont have another hernia and have chronic pain, my PCM referred me to pain management. On my second appointment they said the only thing they could do is a nerve block which can carry complications of its own. I declined it in fear of being in more pain than I already am so the pain management clinic sent their notes back to my PCM. I called my PCM and he emailed me a list of info he would need. I sent it and almost got an immediate response that he submitted my MEB paperwork. I received a call from someone that said they received my doctors request and would call within 2-3 weeks to schedule my first appointment.
What worries me is how fast this happened, from the time I was first seen to the MEB being initiated has only been 3 months. Ive read on here where it takes forever to even have it started I just dont know why mine started so fast???
thanks in advance for any help
