    Jason, I sent you and email a few minutes ago. I actually would've loved to have found your contact info PRIOR to submitting my PDBR submission because I'm sure you would've explained exactly the result I received from the PDBR. I look forward to getting you feedback. Thanks in advance!

    Hello Jason, I started the PDBR 4/14 and I was told that a decision was made and a pkg was sent to me 01/16. I was told "your disability rating was increased from a 0% rating, but no money will be paid to you!". During the PDBR my VA rating was only 70%. I just received a 20% increase in April, but the PDBR was already complete. Can you give me some clarity?

    Would need to see findings/any correspondence to know what is going on. But, an educated guess, the PDBR likely changed your disability rating from 0% to 10% or 20% (result= no change as to retirement status, which would require a 30% or higher rating).

    Not sure the relevance of the 20% VA increase from April. In any event, after the PDBR, likely avenue for any further appeals is through the US Court of Federal Claims.

    Best to post a thread with ? as there is only 420 character limit here on profile posts.

    PDBR rate increase from 0-20%. I'd like to appeal to this decision and get retirement. Will you represent me? [email protected]

    Hi Jason. I wonder if we could talk. My husband was originally awarded 30% Service Connected Disability under section 1151. We appealed because we felt the rating should have been higher and after 2 years, they came back with a proposal to sever his service connection. Our local hearing is July 19th. Thanks so much!

    Hello, I know you're a busy man and also know that you make a living, in part, on giving council. But I was hoping you could message me when available. I received ratings already and must decide to accept or not very soon. Appreciate any time you could spare

    I'm at that point where I just can't take it anymore and just want to medically retire so I can get better and take care of my kids. my profile currently is T3 "anxiety, depression". my 1sg, provider, therapist mentioned meb but nobody seems to know (or care) how to initiate the process.

    I would like to provide you a blank copy of the DA Form 7625 (Lotus Forms) so you can place this on your site under the resources, forms section. This would make life easy as this document is still not on USAPA or APD as it also known. Please let me know how I can send you this file or make this happen. Thanks.

    I'm scheduled to go before a Fitness for Duty board this weekend, I have been diagnosed with grade 3 arthritis and patellofemoral syndrome in my knees, SI joint syndrome, bulging disk in my neck with impingement, degenerative disk disease, plus a few other things. Is there a chance that the Army still consider me fit for duty and deployable? Or should I be referred to a MEB?

    Hard to say without knowing a lot more about your case. That said, the fact that your going before a board with several dx's indicates a high likelihood of an ultimate unfit finding. Good luck!

    I would highly consider your options. Just be aware that the Army is going to be changing the Medical/Sick Call/Profile system to draw down. This coming from the Chief of Staff. Basically if you are not world wide deployable, you most likely to go. I am in the process now its a hard one. So close to the finish line but yet so far.....

    Was found not deployable/retainable by FFD, referred to PEB (since I don't have LODs for nonretainable injuries). Still allowed to drill until process is complete, just no PT or wearing of combat load. Had to do an SRP this past weekend because deploying unit didn't start my packet, current one will have to do it. The process is maddening.

    I am currently going through the med board process and I recently appealed my ratings. I am trying to get my back injuries rated by the army but because I didn't receive the diagnoses until after the ratings came the board is saying I still need more documentation to prove that I have back problems. Should I just take what they offered me or should I fight for a better rating?

    Don't have enough information to offer any thoughts. Would need to know a lot more about your case to offer any meaningful input.

    I was medically discharged as an E-5 promotable with 10% for a shoulder injury, but had seizure due to a brain tumor the Army remove. Three weeks after discharge my name was physically on the E-6 list. If I am approved for retirement will it be at an E-5 or E-6 since I would have made it if not medically discharged

    From what you wrote, it seems E5.

    Hi Jason,
    I'm a Pentagon reporter for Stars and Stripes. I'd appreciate connecting with members who were medically retired due to Asthma after serving in Iraq or Afghanistan. I'm at [email protected]. If you would consider posting this query I'd appreciate it.
    Thank you,

    Jason, Quick question I was chaptered with 5-17 Honorable discharge but Doctor did not recommended MEB. However I got a 70% service connected disability rating from the VA of PTSD/MST. Can you help? I sent you a message about it! Thanks

    Quick Question! I am going through the MEB/PEB process for migraines caused during a deployment. My PEBLO just informed me that the DoD has looked at the package and sent it to the VA. Does this mean I am found unfit and should be expecting a rating? Thanks!
    Jason Perry
    Jason Perry
    Yes, that is what that usually means. Best of luck in getting your desired outcome!

    Sorry to bug you but had a specific question that I hoped you can answer. I'm being medboarded due to PTSD from an armed robbery. The PEB wants a police report, but there was no police report filed. My MEBLO said I needed a Line of Duty Determination (which I turned in today) and that would be be fine. Will that be good enough for them? What if they are adamant about getting a police report that doesn't exist?
