    Unknown Issue..?

    I have headaches but they don't know what causes them or what type they are. I have been still seeking help while going through the MEB. I would say it is worth the shot. You have to live with your body for the rest of your life. If it hurts but they can't find anything who cares. As long as you...

    When to contact PEB or PEBLO

    Always go to your PEBLO first. If they turn out to be worthless then go find the info yourself. Make sure you document when you contacted you PEBLO and if they responded. Mine never responds and I have saved every email and documented every phone call I have made to him. Once I sign my stuff I...

    Retirement or VA

    Of course because you get paid the rest of your life. Plus you get base access and medical care the rest of your life. IMO the retirement is worth more. But it really depends what you want from life :cool:

    Retirement or VA

    Maybe it is different for NG. I honestly do not know how it works but I know for ADAF that if you get above 30% you are retired.

    Dumb Question

    My base (AF) told me I had to do Pre-Sep and TAP and it was required when first starting the MEB process...Who freaking knows? Seems like every base has their own rules.

    Possible MEB Intro: Now we prepare

    Your husband suffers from what I do. I have 4-5 headaches per day and also have sleep apnea. I have been on 40+ meds and get no relief from a single one. I don't have migraines but have a rare form of headache called chronic paroxysmal hemicrania. Unfortunately for me the VA noly recognizes...

    Not to crush anyone's hopes...

    Wow! Awesome discussion. Just know I didn't post this to poke anyone person or organization in the eye and I knew about the VAs process for along time. It took my grandfather 50 years to get compensation for his hearing loss from the Korean War. I just found it interesting cause I know a lot of...

    Found the following on a website. Made me sick... How To Track Your Claim You can't. Forget about it. Seriously. Really. You can't track your claim. Were you told that your claim is in the decision phase? Of course it is...EVERY claim is in the decision phase from the moment it comes in...

    denying med board

    My MEB was stopped because I asked for a second opinion. When they restarted it, they had to start all over, hence 19 months and counting.

    Finally Emailed AFPC

    Today after emailing my PEBLO with no answer for the past 2 months I emailed AFPC the following message: Sir or Ma'am, My name is XXXXXXXXX. I am currently undergoing a MEB. I am trying to get a status on my package in your office. I know that it was sent to your office in late July. My...

    Email from VA on PEB status- anybody get one like this?

    I don't think there is a regional office in my area so it went straight to Baltimore. I actually got a response from the MSC today...This is his canned answer...He told me nothing that I did not already know...typical government opertaion. Here is what he said: right now, your claim rests with...
