  • Hello,
    AD Army 18 months,
    I have been dealing with bilateral hips pain for over a six months. I have had MRIs in my both hips. and they found left hip lebaral tear and my right hip is very painful and needs to be surgery.
    I have been on profile 251 days. My PCM did not mention about MED Board or permanent profile yet. I am in contanst pain but am not sure what a surgery will do to my chances of being medically retired at 30 % if I can even get that high.
    If feasible, can I ask my provider (ctmc) recommending me a Med Board?
    Should I get try to get a surgery during the MEB process if he recommend?

    Thank you very much for the answers.

    Are you trying to stay in or Medical discharge? How long have you been in? VA will not give you a high rating for hips if you have not been on Active duty for 10 years if any at all, it will be deemed non-military related. You need to do your research and read the Army codes and regulations for disability.
