Hello,
I’m relatively new to the whole IDES/MEB/PEB forums and I can’t seem to find any help outside of these forums. I’m hoping anyone has any pointers/guidance to share with me.
Backstory:
I got notified in January that I will need an IRILO. I completed that with my PCM and a NARSUM was drafted. I then was notified by leadership to finish sign the Commander’s Impact Statement in which I concurred with the “Do not retain” selection. Within about 3 days, I found out that the AFPC simply noted a “RTD” and that left me with my FL4:Return to Duty with limitations. I spoke with my PEBLO about the disposition and was informed that there are many different ways this can play out. If I’m put up for an assignment/TDY and I’m limited because of my condition, that’s potentially when the process can be restarted but other than that, I’m at a dead end. I get that every case is different but I feel like this can’t be the end of the journey. Is there anything/anyone I can talk to about the findings from AFPC? I’m curious about alternative avenues I may be able to take because a full MEB wasn’t initiated. I’ve also have been shooting in the dark because I can’t reach the right people to talk to about this. Has anyone else experienced something like this and found a way to get the MEB rolling? I just feel like my condition is being down-played as something mild.
*I forgot to note that I’m undergoing treatment bi-weekly with biologics
