I called the PEBLO and they stated my case is with 3rd officer. How long is a case usually with a 3rd officer? My referred condition was a personality disorder but an IMR diagnosed it as a mood disorder. If found fit will I be admin separated or just continue until EAS?

Im active duty USMC and been in 7.5 years. Has anyone been found unfit for a personality disorder? Or been able to appeal the diagnosis at the FPEB. I have conflicting MH Diagnosis but was only found unfitting for Personality Disorder, not anxiety or depression. I feel like I'm being screwed...

After years of going to mental health and trying to figure out what is wrong with me, I have been diagnosed with Bipolar or (unspecified mood (affective) disorder. I was told I would be put on a Medical Evaluation Board but I haven't heard anything; that was a few days ago. My command has been...

I know the PsA is rated of per joint and I believe the Psoriasis is rated off the Humira use. So that would be 10% per joint w/bilateral factor and I think 60% with psoriasis because of Humira use and corticosteroids. My case after begging and getting the patient advocate involved was finally...

Hello all! Curious as to what will trigger a PEB initiation from the MEB. What are the specific criteria for your conditions to be submitted to IDES to determine suitability for service? Thanks

Currently going through the IDES process active duty Space Force. I just signed my Form 618. What is the timeline to see results on fit/unfit? How long does it take from here to get ratings from the DOD and VA? I know my PEBLO has told me there is currently a backlog and I could be looking at a...

Thank you for the feedback in my previous post - I may not have worded my question correctly. I read on an old post from March of 2020 that, "when you see 2 claims on va.gov one closed and one opened this means the VA has finished your proposed ratings which basically means you were found...

Hi everyone, I've been in the Air Force for 4 1/2 years now and in September I started the medboard process. I was referred for asthma and mental health (depression, anxiety, and panic disorder without agoraphobia). I finally just finished my last VA exam on Dec 22 so now I'm just waiting on the...

I'm going through the MEB process currently I just finished my last QTC exam and am waiting for my NARSUM. My question is whether or not in your opinion will I be found fit or unfit based on my referred injury? It is quite confusing but essentially I've been referred to the meb due to back pain...

February 2019- Diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis March 2019- Permanent LIMDU with "no functional limitations" for non-deployment due to prescribed immunosuppressant Humira May 2019- Med Board initiated, inducted into IDES August 6, 2019- First round of C&P exams, VA Status: "Claim Received"...

Good evening everyone! My Narsum and NMA got sent up on August 12th. However, after further reviewing my C&P Exam for my unfitting condition “Other Spondylosis w/ Radiculopathy” and “Chronic Pain”.. the VA examiner did a poor job. Does the MEB/PEB look at those exam results at all? Or do they...

Hey team, talked to the PEBLO and after 67 days still don’t have a formal/informal answer. Was told to check eBenefits for any type of movement instead of va.gov website. My claim says “pending decision” and upon further details says a VSR has recommended a decision and preparing a documents to...

I am currently on a second LIMDU period for Major Depressive Disorder. I have been dealing with this off and on over the last 8 years. I had a Suicide Attempt in 2015 followed by inpatient treatment, a year of psychotherapy and meds. After the year was up, I PCSed (summer 2016). About 10-12...
