    USAF Denied - PTSD from US/RU Deconfliction Hotline (OIR)

    Medically retired Air Force, 100% VA for PTSD.... I was one of a handful of interpreters on the 24/7 US-Russia deconfliction hotline (OIR, 2017-2018). I do encourage folks to google it as there's lots of articles roughly explaining what we did. Denied for "no direct exposure to gunfire or...

    Is 100% DOD worth the fight?

    Got a proposed rating of 80% and PDRL from TDRL IPEB 1.5 years in - pulled it off myfss site so idk how valid it is as I havent gotten official notification. 70% MDD, 30% Chrons - basically no change from day they TDRL'd me. Thing is VA reevaluated me as 100% MDD/PTSD last Fall and arguably my...

    Updated GI rating criteria 2024

    Seeking some information on what does the criteria mean by toxicity when it comes to Chrons/UC(tachycardia, anemia etc.). Is it only limited to those two or is it a broader list of things? Going through TDRL reevaluation and have been in a shaky remission since separation with stint of...

    TDRL status and VA reeval increase

    Mods Im not sure where to ask TDRL questions - please advise if wrong forum. Gist of it is I have recently got VA MH increase while on TDRL(From what I hear its not optimal in order to get the board to place you on PDRL as its "not static" condition due to change). Do AF boards typically move...

    VA PTSD Reeval Timeline Question

    Sitting pretty on TDRL currently. VA opened up a claim for PTSD reeval and 30 days later I went through CP exam which was favorable. Now I am informed via VA tracker extension my claim is sitting in National Queue temporary jurisdiction with the RO of the place I retired from being normal...

    Mental Health Reevaluation Uploading Records

    Just went through my MH reeval with VA - nothing exiting but a weird 20-30 min zoom call. The claim is still open - opened by VA not me. I have been seeing Vet center and a private LCSW since I was booted. Private doc has written up a good summary letter which I uploaded to the claim as...

    Condition Stability

    Greetings, after having gone though the IDES process and being on my way out to TDRL I am now questioning what does it mean that condition is "stabilized"; is there some criteria that is being looked at or definition? I am not really sure where to plug this question so please let me know if this...

    AF 356/TDRL Orders and CRSC

    Could not find AF specific answer hence the post. Got Temp retired for PTSD/MDD and UC. Cant figure out if MH is combat related as on my AF 356 box F is checked as yes and box D as NO orders should have combat zone marked as yes as well. UC can be arguable as it happened post deployment but...

    FPEB Clarifications

    Hello, based off my unhinged rant HERE I have decided to appeal IPEB fitting UC finding. When I spoke with OAC I was told few things I havent heard of and wanted to see general experience here. 1. You can cancel FPEB once you started on right before the hearing if need be and accept IPEB...

    70/100 TDRL Puzzled by IPEB reasoning - Need sanity check.

    Few questions I am being booted for PTSD/MDD with Ulcerative Colitis as a cherry on top. I am a little puzzled at the fact that I am placed on TDRL (I do understand most MH cases go the) but the verbiage of my NARSUM and even IPEB remarks is that the condition isnt going to improve (stable)...
