    **TIME-SENSITIVE ?s** - OFFICIAL FINDINGS RECEIVED

    I'll try to update my timeline soon, but wanted to post that I received my findings. As I already knew from receiving my VA Findings, I was rated 90% Overall from the VA. However, the DoD rated me as Unfit at 10% to be placed on the Permanent Disability Retirement List (PDRL). They rated my...

    My Timeline, to date. Questions.

    So, as is in my Timeline in my Sig Block I just created, here's where I'm at. I'm seeing people who have dates associated with their eBenefits as to when a decision is expected, though I do not have this information in my eBenefits. When will this information 'pop' into my eBenefits? Will that...

    Potential Wrist/Knee Rating Inputs Requested

    So these are two conditions I'm also wondering about. I have pretty 'bad' tendinitis for my Wrist, but there's not much they can do, so I just press on. Same with my knees, but for those, it's Degenerative Joint Disease. To me, it looks as if possible 20% for wrist and 10% for...

    IPEB--2nd Go-around--Questions

    So, I'm about to be submitted to my second IPEB. Last year I was found FIT and was thrilled, because I wanted to stay in, so I didn't appeal. Unfortunately, about 2 months later, my conditions worsened and I started missing a lot more work for SIQ and appointments. I again, was waived from the...

    HELP!-Referral to 2nd MEB After Being Found FIT

Since such time, one of my conditions have progressed, causing me to miss more time from work due to SIQ days or Appointments. I have had a Navy PRT Waiver for the last two cycles for both...

    NARSUM Rebuttal/IMR

    I received my NARSUM last Friday, and had some issues with it, so I sent back a rebuttal. Basically, the characterizations of some of my conditions were incomplete, changed, or wrong. The Dr. provided a surrebuttal stating that he wasn't changing anything. It stands as is. So I requested an...
