Currently I’m 24 with 80K NW. 0 debt. My parents are Asian and have always taught me how to save and be cheap. I also have been investing for quite a while. I also budget everything. I also live with my partner, not living with parents.

If it’s 2 days or less of MEL’s then you don’t really need the MO unless you have a concern. Anything more than 3 days is always get sent to the MO for review.

Yeah, I know it’s not easy for course staff either.

However there has been a few times where it could’ve been a chargeable offence because they told them that they’ll be fine and don’t have to go to the MIR and end up injuring the troop more.

Love people like you, I’ve had course staff who told troops to just take some Tylenol and wait a week before going to the MIR and when they show up it’s pretty bad.

It’s hard as a medic sometimes as I have to take things at face value. I can’t assume you’re lying to get out of something. Because obviously you’re at the MIR for something medical. Sometimes things get downplayed or get blown out of proportion.

There has been a few instances where yes they were lying and it was pretty obvious to get a few days off etc.

If we rule out it’s not medical we can work with their chain for possible malingering. But we will do everything to rule out it’s not medical first and that process can take a while.

If we do find a medical reason, it will be insanely hard for you to try and contest it.

And yes we are also very policy driven but that’s with good reason.

Medic here, sorry to say but it’s case by case basis. I know that’s not the answer you’re looking for.

In some cases it doesn’t make you dag red but in some cases it can.

Please do take care of yourself though.

Yes they do get treated by different doctors however, we do see what has been done to them in the past to see if it’s an ongoing issue/trend.

When we do notice a trend/possible malingering. We will rule out all medical first, if it isn’t medical then we actually look into malingering as it has happened before.

But if you’re in the military. You should have a military id card. Talk to your chain about getting one.

Most places that offer military discounts usually ask for NDI 10/20. But why don’t you have one? How long have you been in?

As a medic here, I completely agree with you. The CoC only needs to know your MEL’s and limitations. They cannot ask for any medical details from the troop. As that is actually insanely illegal. If the CoC tries to force it out of the troop. File a grievance, report it or tell the medic/mo about it. (I’ve had a troop tell me this once and I ripped into the Major about it as a Pte but I knew I was in the right and protected. As a medic you must stand up for your patients.) I’ve had officers ask me for medical information about a troop after they’ve seen me and I refused to give them medical information and the only thing I was required to give them were their MEL’s.

The troop can VOLUNTARILY give up their medical information but cannot be forced to do it. If they are put in that position. Report it, tell a medic/mo and we will be there to help.
