    Fort Campbell timeline

    Nothing crazy, just the attorney needed more time. They are extremely busy with heavy caseloads.

    Fort Campbell timeline

    Sure, not a problem. 17Apr my PEBLO informed me that I was found unfit and my DA199 was ready. This gave me 10 days to talk my attorney. The attorney needed more time and requested an extension through the PEBLO. The Fort Campbell attorneys are awesome, but extremely busy. Good luck to you...

    Provis, If you still have the 4187 example to extended the 90 days, I could also use it.

    Can I opt out of the medboard once its been sent up?

    What happens if your “improved” condition(s) deteriorate back to your previous pain level(s) before attaining 20 good years? Doesn’t sound logical that the VA would hear “you’re fit for duty”, but later say, no, not really. Just remember, Every action has a consequence

    Not sure if MDD with PTSD will qualify for CRSC

    Ron, Thanks for your post. I do plan on submitting, I was just concerned. Kept speculating someone would simply auto deny due to the wording between MDD with…. versus specifically saying PTSD as a stand-alone

    Not sure if MDD with PTSD will qualify for CRSC

    Hello group. My apologies if these questions has already asked to the group. My questions are, if I’m service connected for MDD with PTSD, will this hurt my chance for CRSC? Since Depression is intertwined with PTSD and vice vesa, will the service connection have to only list PTSD? Will this...

    On some of my claims, my examiner was off. So I’m doing what I can by reviewing the heck out of my DBQ

    Which ROM is used for VA ratings?

    This is probably an easy question and pretty sure I know the answer already. Just to be safe I’ll ask, because you’d never know. Which type of back ROM (Active, Passive, Observed, Repeated, and Flair-Ups) is used for VA rating purposes? My DBQ showed 2 different ROM results (specifically...

    Seeking legal counsel

    This post sounds almost exactly like my C&P exam. If you wouldn’t mind, please also send me those legal advice names. I haven’t actually seen my NARSUM yet, but get the feeling it’s going to be wrong.

    Hip Surgery

    All they need is documentation of you have had a temporary profile for more than 250 or 270 days and they will initiate. Most likely they won’t inform you this is happening, but trust me, you’re already on their radar. If you wanna stay in, get the surgery. I was pain free for 4 years after my...

    Hip Surgery

    Hate to be that guy that says, “It depends” but it really does. You’ve got a lot of variables to consider like: What is your end goal? (Are you trying to stay in or get out of the Army?) Other considerations for thought; What is your current lifestyle, pain level(s), range of motion, current...

    Surgery during the IDES process?

    This is a rather long question post for the group and my spidey senses are tingling that I’ll get screwed. Quick backstory: Currently 15 yrs AD Army and our BN borrowed PCM initiated my MEB. 11 yrs ago, my bilateral FAI hip problems started and have had both scoped already. 8 months ago, my...

    How are multiple DOD ratings combined

    Thanks for the quick response. Figured it would use VA math logic.

    How are multiple DOD ratings combined

    I tried to find the answer but wasn’t successful, so I’ll ask here. If you get referred for a MEB from 2 different unfit conditions, how will the DOD rating be added up/combined? Will the DOD rating follow VA math or actual math? For example: SPC Snuffy got 100% from VA but DOD awarded him 50%...

    Medical retirement question

    Medical retirement question

    Got a question and can’t seem to find the answer. A friend insists there is a difference being AD Army and medical retired at 15 years vs 14 years of qualified years. The only thing I discovered is the option for TERA at 15 years (*only if authorized by Congress). Any insight will be appreciated.
