is the NLT date your official retirement date(after terminal and PTDY) or your last day in the uniform going to work?

possibly, but they'll still do xrays for it, since you claim pain...the VA examiner ultimately will then become the diagnoser for that condition, not your PCM. of course, if your xray shows no signs to why you are hurting, i'm not sure what will happen next...possibly CT or MRI?!

EPR and being in MEB process...when to stop worrying about bullets?! My leadership is still having me complete an EPR due in Jan si Che we do t know when I’ll be out, but I will definitely be out within the next 8 months. Advice is requested!

Is UC the only condition you were referred for?

I just messaged my PCM about half-days or a decreased work week. We’ll see what he says. If he doesn’t do it , maybe my Rheumatologist will. He’s the one who recognized how bad my fibromyalgia actually is and it’s just getting worse and more exhausting by the day. Finger crossed!!

I’m gonna see if I can go on half days. I’m so fricking tired everyday all day. My poor co-workers are probably so tired of hearing me complain about my conditions.but they have taken over my life.

Gotcha! I didn’t realize that the process worked that way!

How are you already out but still waiting on ratings.? I thought that was part of the IPEB, not Transition stage?! I want to get out as soon as possible. I’m worthless at work. My Work restrictions are ridiculous and I just my email and pebform a million times a day. Lol. I could at least do...

You did the perfect thing already by writing everything that you’ve actually been diagnosed with while in the military. They’ll do exams , labs, and X-rays to corroborate your claims. They may find more issues that will need to be claimed. I complained of back pain. X-Ray revealed I had a...

I’d be better off not being at work. I’m pretty much worthless. My duty restrictions are ridiculous. I can only lift 10lbs. I just check my email all day pretty much, oh and pebform, of course. Lol. Thanks for the encouragement! I need all the help I can get!

Sooooooo jealous!!!!!!

Congrats!!!

that is really fucked up!! they better put you in the front of the line, once this is fixed!

i hear ya! i just found out through my VA exams that my T11 on my spinal column is fractured! it's been really sore, and i didn't know why! there's literally that will help it though, besides a back brace, meds, and bedrest...um, no. i have arthritis all over too. life quality for me is...

makes sense... Is your Fibro resistant to treatment like mine is? i hurt all day everyday, no matter what meds i take or therapy to do. it sucks.

Yes, push that retirement button now!

You’ll only lose it if you go below 30%. 30-100%=PDRL retirement 0-20%= separation/severance pay

We’re u only referred for fibromyalgia?

that's crazy...it shouldn't have taken that long...4-8months at the most from start to finsish. you are definitely a unique case....sorry

what are they referring you for?...only the PTSD? you will be put on TDRL(min. 50% disability pay) and evaluated at least every 6-18 months for up to 3 years, then they will make their final determination and your rating will either go up or down. everything will be via the VA disability and...
