I was also offered one and this was my exact question. Thanks for the post.

Idk makes me frustrated because it makes it sound as if I’m not putting in the effort to do the exam.

Hello I did an eval with physical therapy and every movement we did I had back pain. The MRI shows that a bulging disc that is hitting a nerve and this is what the physical therapist said, “Ptn with extremely high fear avoidance of motion and unable to identify any structural components as ptn...

Switch PCMs. There are a lot of bad ones out there who don’t want to do their jobs, rather they want to look good to get ahead. I have had a lot of bad PCMs and I’ve also had okay ones and horrible ones. I had one day that my testicular pain wasn’t related to my back pain, refused to put in a...

I’ve only been in 7 years and was told CRSC would only apply to DOD ratings. I’ll have to research it and thanks for pointing it out to me. I’m not sure what VA compensation I would be able to receive.

Any update on percentages?

I have had issues with civilian providers and getting my medical conditions documented. Take your civilian records and get them in your military treatment records and take them to your pcm for guidance. I am being seen in house and have been diagnosed with thoratic outlet syndrome but, it’s...

I’m in the same boat. I was told CRSC only applies to DOD ratings. DOD ratings are taxed and if you were found unfit for PTSD then that would factor into your DOD rating, making that percentage tax free. VA ratings are tax free, and doesn’t matter if it happened in combat or not. That is what I...

Marine Corps, sorry about that.

My command is putting in a package for me to wounded warrior. Primary diagnoses is PTSD combat related is what I was told. Does any one have any insight into what this means or how wounded warrior is ran? I would greatly appreciate it.

That was an awesome explanation. I was told thorastic outlet can cause blood flow issues or nerve issues. My issues where from years of wear and tear of being in the infantry. I was told it’s from my posture, which is compressing on a nerve. They tried Botox, and physical therapy but, it didn’t...

What are the special compensations to having PTSD related to combat?

my fibro is pretty severe. I was originally put into an MEB due to not taking a fitness test for 2 years, but then once I officially received a diagnosis from my rheumatologist about fibromyalgia they initiated a MEB because of my extended profile and job restrictions. I am no longer in the...

I had a coming to Jesus moment with my PCM and finally broke down. She said I need to get help, and she is sorry for everything. Treatments aren't really working, but I am hoping I am working toward something. I hope you get better! And thank you for all you do!

Don't know if you are still in but I'm getting botox shots for my tos. The first round didn't work, but I am getting a second-round because the original doctors don't know what they are doing.

Any updates on your case? I have the same issue.

I haven't been to work for months, and I'm on the verge of a divorce, and my six years old noticed a change in me with anger. It's stressing me out and giving bad anxiety realizing that I can't do 20 because the Marine corps is the most straightforward job there is, and no matter what, I get...

I have 30 different lipomas as well and was wondering what the rating would be lol. They are saying one is pressing on my sound, but it doesn't make sense to me lol. Thanks for the thread and best of luck!

Exactly what I was looking for! Thank you for getting this to me. It has helped tremendously! I was worried about the DOD rating and the health care for my family. Do you know if this applies to DOD ratings or just VA

I am currently in the Marine Corps going on seven years. I was placed on limdu for thoracic outlet syndrome and an injury to my foot that requires surgery. I may go on limu for PTSD related to the accident and from a combat deployment. If I am referred to a MEB for any of the three issues will...
