Dec 3rd 2011 Injured my shoulder
MAR 1st 2012 - 1ST LIMDU
APR 13th 2012 - Surgery w/ complications
Aug 1st 2012 - Limdu ends FWD to IDES
Aug 20th 2012 - Limdu Sent paperwork to command
Sep 3rd 2012- Command comments unfit to continue service fwd back to limdu office
Oct 15 2012 - Paperwork forwarded to DC awating fit or unfit

Ive been told that once my findings come back unfit i will be sent to the states.

Just to note there are no VA reps here in japan so no exams have been done just with the local navel hospital. I read alot of posts where you get the VA exams done before everything is submitted to DC? Does anyone knwo how long it takes to get orders after being found unfit?

Base on your conditions you should get 30% from your branch and around 60-70% from the VA, give or take. Not bad numbers my friend. I just retired yesterday, 30% Navy and 100% VA. God Bless and wish you the best.
 
Don im in a very similar boat

By the way im currently in JP as well on Okinawa.

Injured Shoulder Nov 2011

signed and submited my OIDES package w/ NARSUM and NMA Feb 14 2013
now just awaiting results

Don please keep me posted on your progress i would like to see what eventually may happen to me. if you dont mind sharing the info. Are you on long term narcotic care for you pain management? i have so many questions for you. please feel free to PM me.
 
Just waiting now, the peblo says from the time i sign i can plan on 2-3 months left before everything is completed.
As for pain management I was on narco up until last month now i have a BioTENS2 that shocks my shoulder and disrupts the pain receptors.
 
Update: While still getting treatment found out the right shoulder strain is actually: will have to wait to submit this once my findings come back or is there a way to add this to the allready submitted documents
Glenoid Dysplasia; severe
