    Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD)

    Yes that is one that I found as well. I have the loss of movement on one side as they used in their claim. However, this condition is rampant especially with TBI cases and there just HAS to be more somewhere... While I realize that case has some similarities I am more looking to get the...

    I figured 13 surgeries including 2 downrange, in 4 years would make me eligible for and MEB following more reading here I see that the TRDL is a part of the process. I do not plan on asking for an MEB but I fully expect one to come find me!
