Hey
I’ve been in the AF Reserve for nearly two years. My first year and a half was spent on active orders. During this I was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis, symptoms started several months after being in. I am now on Remicade and have a LOD for my UC (and my depression caused by it). My NARSUM was sent to AFPC/SG (<—-I think) recently. My PEBLO told me that they will decide my C Code and will probably want to monitor me for a few years before thinking about sending me to MEB. However, my military doc told me that Remicade usually warrants a MEB right away. Can someone help shed some light on this for me? Am I likely to be MEB’d? Timeline? Any previous experiences that might reflect mine? Possible ratings if MEB’d out?
Thank you.
