I'm trying to find out the best course of action for my fiance which was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis while deployed. Her doctor told her that she is not 100% sure if this is the right diagnose since she is not responding to any of the medication for this chronic disease, her doctor is not sure what she has. She is going thru the meb board proceeding and the board granted a 50% disability. The question is, should she appeal the decision in hope that she can qualify for medical retirement?
