Hi there. I am an ET3 in the Navy and recently have been informed by my doctor that I am going to be placed on a medication to treat me. The drug (Requip) he informed me that it will disqualify me. I have been in a LIMDU status since I completed prototype and have yet to be out to the fleet. I have been in for 2 years now. I am curious how all of this works with re-rating and medical benefits. Since in the pipeline I have been treated for skin cancer twice, awaiting a surgery for a hiatal hernia and fundoplication, type 2 hypertension, and my extremities fale around over 100 times an hour determined by 2 sleep studies, which is what the Requip is for. The reason Im worried about the re-rating is that the jobs that were offered to someone else that was here at the command I am currently at was CS and DC.
What can I do if I dont like the jobs offered?
What is this whole process like and what is entailed in it?
Will I be entitled to my Tricare if I am separated?
Thank you in advance for any input on this subject.
