I was on drill weekend and noticed shortness of breath and swelling of my leg. I went to the hospital to find out I had a blood clot that broke off and went into my lung. Also the doctor told me I am a severe anemic.
I requested a LOD because it was on duty and I stated PT might have aggravated this. The medical bills were paid, but the medical readiness NCO asked me how do you think the Army injured you to get a LOD?
I am treatable and still in working for retirement but my anemia won’t get better and I have a greater chance of developing another blood clot.
Is there a way to word this to claim a LOD? I was close to being kicked out with just a handshake, Im fighting to stay in but is their a way to be compensated?
