Hello all,
I’m an active duty 11B that’s been in for almost 10 years. Last October I was hospitalized due to having bilateral pulmonary embolisms and a DVT in my left calf. During this time I’ve had a plethora of other health issues that arose from, extreme stomach ulcers that nearly caused my stomach to rupture, white matter lesions within my brain and being diagnosed with an unknown white matter disease, and more. Recently I had an appointment with a hematologist and that’s when I found out about the Factor 2 and Factor 5 gene mutation which now forces me to be on lifelong anticoagulants. My MEB was just initiated about 2 weeks ago.
Does anyone have any insight on what the percentage should roughly be, how long this will take due to me still being in treatment for other health issues, and how truly does this whole process go and any tips/tricks to help the process go along. Any help is greatly appreciated.
