    Can a phase 2 physical trigger a medboard?

    Okay, thanks for the advice. I intend to just list all my problems and how it is affecting my ability to serve, and social challenges. I figured that asking for a MEB usually backfires even if my conditions legitimately hinder my career. Thanks.

    Can a phase 2 physical trigger a medboard?

    I am facing getting chaptered, but I have been diagnosed with a cam deformity in my femur and PTSD. I'm close to being medboarded but I'm concerned the chapter proceeding will start before that process starts. So I wanted to know, can a phase 1 and 2 physical and the behavioral health...

    Facing honorable discharge, CDR says I do not qualify for PTSD plus leg problems medboard because...

    ...of time in service (2 and a half years including basic and AIT) and not being deployed. Not to be explicit I was sexually assaulted in basic training, which caused the PTSD. Is this true, is there a deployment or time requirement for sexual assault PTSD? How about the legs?

    Stress Fracture in Femur since basic training (over a year)

    I did not even know about this being available outside of medboard processes, thank you for the suggestion! I do not, but I contacted the patient advocacy on getting one. My clinic is only now getting a new provider specific to us, but of course that means they will be dealing with a backlog of...

    Stress Fracture in Femur since basic training (over a year)

    Bumping for advice. Orthopedics will not see me without a referral, but Podiatry will. I am going to do a walk-in to podiatry tomorrow to see if they can encourage referral or refer for themselves (why I can't get to see a specialist in the field after 18 months of these games is beyond me.

    Stress Fracture in Femur since basic training (over a year)

The Patient Advocacy guy gave me the number of the...

    Stress Fracture in Femur since basic training (over a year)

    Thank you everyone for the advice and confirming this is as serious as I thought. I am going to sick call tomorrow, as the pain is starting to spread into my hip; I know sick call often only gets you seen by an enlisted nurse, are they capable of referring me to Ortho, or do I have to wait for...

    Stress Fracture in Femur since basic training (over a year)

    I have been seen by three different PCMs since arriving on post, each referring me to take a full bone scan confirming the problem still exists. They merely gave me temporary profiles, never gave physical therapy, and when I came off profile the unit pressured me to take a PT test pushing me to...

    Stress Fracture in Femur since basic training (over a year)

    In basic training I was diagnosed with a level 3 stress fracture. Unit pushed me to stay off temporary profile to take PT tests and such, but after successful PT tests or when the pain gets too bad I go in to the doctor, get a bone scan, and confirm it is still there, when it should have healed...
