Has anyone here gotten a successful waiver for eczema after getting a DQ?
My DS reported on DoDMERB that he had eczema until he was 13, and had initial status of "Remedial", and was asked for additional medical information (AMI). DS submitted all required AMI, including records of treatment and hospitalization. After submitting the AMI, his status changed to "qualified" within a few days.Afrotc16: I am in exactly the same boat right now. I had eczema as a child but no longer have it and was medically disqualified. So far, West Point has requested a waiver, and I had my dermatologists fax a note to dodmerb informing them of my situation. Is this what you did? Any other tips? Thanks!
I somehow found a former AF dermatologist (by coincidence!!) who wrote a letter to dodmerb saying that I did not have any signs of eczema after a full body scan; then I finally got a waiver. It was helpful to have the former AF dr though, she totally understood the situation.Afrotc16: I am in exactly the same boat right now.
