I been to the ER 2 times in past 2 days for her migraine headaches I think that I have a lot of meds in the last 48 hours. I have a history of migraines for about the past 5 years maybe longer.
I have an appointment with the DAV rep on Monday, but I don’t have all of my medical records just some of them. I have requested them but it will take about 3 weeks before I can get them. I am traditionally a reservist that has a lot of active duty time.
She will not be able to see the neuro for about another 2 weeks ( You know how tricare is)
We don’t know if I am going to get med boarded or not but I think that military is not for me at this point. I went to the ER they treated me like a dirt bag because of my headaches. Its starting to frustrate me beyond belief. The was so nasty to me it was ridiculous. I that that my brain functions has decreased because of the medication . I have no choice but to take them because would be in so much pain. If I did not. I have been in the military for 9 years and been on active duty orders for about 5 of those years. I don’t think that I am going to be med boarded I wanted to start the process with the VA ASAP. My orders in on 30 Sept and I know that I will not be getting anymore, so I will go back to being a traditional reservist.
Any advice
Theses are the items that I would like to put on my claim. My vision is a little blurry so bare with me
Migraine Headaches
Insomnia
Back Strain
Right Knee injury
Flat Feet
PTSD- I was in the Pentagon during Sept 11. I don’t talk about it because it brings back jacked up memories so normally I just avoid it all together.
Anxiety
Abdominal Pain ( don’t know where it comes from, but they took out my appendix and that area still hurts)
When I get off I plan on going to school for medicine. I want to be a doctor. I just don’t want this to effect my educational benefits. Because at this point I cant go 1 month without missing some days at work. I am soooo trying to get better. But its hard to explain to your leadership what is going on when you are sick because you will get NO support. I know I get stressed out when they start being petty about dumb stuff (We all have been there) I do find myself getting depressed .
Any suggestions? Or a starting point.
Things that I should be doing? Any TipS.

Hello All.
I am sitting here on quaters because of my migraine headaches. I have 9 years old service in the USAF and I feel a MEB coming kinda quickly. I have an appointment with a VA rep on Monday to sit down and start a claim. I have watched and heard the horror stories about VA processes. Hopefully you all can help me out.
Educational Benefits Question

So question.
Can you use your post 911 GI bill and later use your voc- reab if you are eligible?
When you receive a VA rating of 40% of can you still use your GI bill? and laws or regs to support this?
Will I loose my Gi bill if I leave the service?
