Little Background, I'm an 11b3O (9+ years)(Infantryman) in the Army, I have recently been to an MMRB, and was recommended to a MEB/PEB.
Reason for MEB:
Knee Injury: ACL Reconstruction Aug 06, also meniscus repair, since the surgery I've been unable to run for long without getting sharp pains in my knee cap, also slight instability, knee get's sore when standing, sitting to long among other things that aggravate it.
Wrist Injury: TFCC repair, motorcycle accident, my wrist was repaired in Aug 08, was injured on March 08, it took almost 3 months to get into a specialst to get my wrist looked at after going to the emergency room, my off post doc put me in a cast, and that didn't work then had the surgery, however still haveing cronic wrist pain, may need another surgery, going in for ct scan next week.
My guess is I'm going to be found "Un-Fit" for duty, one of my questions is if found unfit for duty and my file goes before the PEB to rate disability do my other medical problems get taken into account, such as lower back pain have been seen for it few times in military career, shoulders, I've had shoulder problems for a few years now but just the other day I had them looked at by my doc, he said my shoulders are degenerating probably ordered x-rays, doc said x-rays would come back up during my physical for MEB, also I have High Blood pressure, and I'm currently on Meds, I've had a couple stress fractures in my legs, and I'm going to be seen by Pysch. for possible PTSD.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
Jason
