question again: have you been to war yet? what was the outcome? were you happy with Jason as attorney, we are thinking of hiring him ourselves.

Jason, I answered your questions. What do you think about the possible miss coding? Should we fight for more disability or run with return to work? Someone said you are available for hire, what do you charge? Adrienne

So what happened? How did you hire Jason? WE all need and want to know.

My husbands took 20 weeks and 4 days to get result. They only give you 10 days to respond, AFI offers a three day extension but you have to ask for it right away. IAW AFI 36-3212, paragraph 6.5.2 He just signed the appeal paperwork today and now we sit again and wait to hear about a court date.

see post from days ago. Would it be possible to appeal that the codes are not correct and ask for 30% disablity and medical retirement or should we go appeal for return to duty?

Symptoms are: painful joints, every movement causes him pain. Joints affected at this time: hips, knees, ankles, shoulders, elbows and now his hands have started going numb. He was told by specialist he is not to run as it will cause more harm to his knees. He has the common symptoms of...

He only has the Sjogren's Syndrome. He does not have Rheumatoid Arthritis (was tested and negative). Doc's letter in MEB paperwork stated he has the following: Sjogren's Syndrome with associated inflammatory polyarthropathy with exacerbations of pain. Per IPEB returned as 5099-5002 and 20%...

Finally the hubby has decided to go for an appeal as we believe they rated and coded his disease the wrong way. Looked into LAS and no one seems to know much about it more then what is in Fact sheets here. Seems too risky to me as hubby is good now, not to say he will be next year.

Good luck. Hubby's MEB was received by AFPC on Sept 14th and just got answer back on Feb 10th. We are still trying to figure out what to do and how to do it. We got discharge too and it sucks, 17+ years in and he can do his job no problem, just cant deploy. Adrienne

Jason, where would I find these findings? I found the codes 6399-6350 in DoDI 1332.39 but I need the document where you found the percents. If we are to appeal we need backup documents. We were told the 5099-5002 is a catch all when they dont find the exact coding for the disease, is this...

My husband just got back his results for MEB. Seperation with severance with disability 20%, 5099-5002. With a note to apply for LAS due to his 17+ years in service (Air Force). He wants to stay in for 20 or get medical retirement as he feels he has earned it with all the deployments and...
