I just have received my results for the DoD medical standards and there is a major error. I was disqualified for D161.21-History of surgery for peptic ulceration or perforation. I did not have surgery for this issue. The doctors had indicated that it was a freak instance that could have been...

I was medically disqualified about 2 months ago and I’ve just “finished” my application a couple days ago. (I still need ALO interveiw and Congressmen nom). I was curious at what point of the application does USAFA notify you that a waiver procces will begin on your behalf. (Or even if they will...

I said "yes" to the question that asked if I had any past incidents of "Car, train, sea, or air sickness." I have never recorded when I've gotten car sick or gone to get it treated. How do I answer the follow-up question? I've put N/A for the "Name" and "Office Address" sections and small...

I am planning to join Army as a nurse but i have questions i know that you have to take physical test in order to join military. I heard some information if you take physical test at Mebs you have to wear like blue gown (a cheap paper thing with a slit on one side) and then you have to uncloth...

Background info: So I took a look at my medical records and on July 2019, I went to my first appointment concerning back pain from prolonged sitting/standing. They did an x ray on me and found a ~12 degree curve in my lumbar around the same area I was experiencing pain from sitting/standing...

Hi Everyone, My DS is currently Under Waiver Review due to ADHD. Does anyone know how long we should expect this process to take? He was diagnosed prior to kindergarten, never took medication and had his IEP terminated when he was 12 (all things he included in his medical survey). His JROTC...

Unfortunately, I have read that this is premenantly disqualifying.... is it likely I can get a waiver if I’ve been involved in sports all my life and have seen no issues ever? Any input would be great. @MullenLE

Hello guys! So I just came back from MEPS and have been qualified. My recruiter for enlistment told me that I could use the MEPS result for USAFA (I'm doing reserve as a backup). How do I forward the MEPS results to DoDMERB? Thank you for any response！:):):wave:

Couple of questions regarding the Dodmerb: I scheduled my eye exam through the Dodmerb website and then when I show up the optometrist says they don't do that kind of medical exam and their corporate office has made a mistake. How can I be more specific when I reschedule somewhere else to avoid...

my eye doctor did the book depth perception test and while I think I nailed the number and circle part of it when he asked "what do you see on this page" with a fly with wings hovering above it i stupidly said "a fly" he didn't ask about the wings, so i didn't say anything about them so now I'm...

On the background questions for the medical exam, it says if you've had a past history of a certain ailment. Do I still answer yes to something I don't remember even if I no longer suffer from it?

I feel that my question may be repetitive and asked a million times but I want to ensure i'm not missing anything critical and can work out my plan b's c's etc if need be. I am currently an MSI in Army ROTC at University of Portland on a 3-year AD scholarship. Prior to arriving at UP I completed...

Hi All, I've been doing some research on the USAF FC1 Refraction requirements for eyesight. My prescription is as follows Right Eye: Sphere: -4.75 Cylinder: -1.00 Axis: 015 Left Eye: Sphere: -5.25 Cylinder: -1.00 Axis: 163 I’m trying to figure out if I will need to get LASIK or PRK in order...

I was looking through my medical health summary, and I realized there is some irregularities with the records. 1) I remember getting a very minor fracture in my skull when I was around 5 years old and getting stitches for the injury. I got the treatment at the same hospital that I am currently...

I have a Cadet ‘22 and My youngest son is a CC for 2025. He is finished enough with his USMA application to get DODmerb information. He is scheduling his physical and filling out his forms. I am nervous about his DODmerb because he has alopecia. Does anyone have a cadet who has alopecia...

Hello, I had a couple questions regarding underage drug and alcohol usage and the effects it has on my application. First off, does the Naval Academy drug test during the DoDMERB exam? If so, is it a hair test or a urine test? Secondly, (and this is a hypothetical scenario) if someone used...

Hello. I apologize if this information is out there, I searched the forums and couldn't find anything. I am applying for USMA, USAFA, and USNA and am scheduled for my medical exams next week. Unfortunately, my parents informed me that I had Legg-Calve-Perthes disease at the age of 4 as I was...

I have a slight curvature of my spine. According to a specialist, it’s nothing serious enough to wear a brace or undergo treatment, but it’s still pretty curved. In addition to this, my neck is a little bent forward, I guess because of all the time I spend on my phone. Will this negatively...

Signing off the USNA board after not receiving an appointment, and grateful to many on this forum. Thank you to everyone who posted - we didn't log in a lot, but we read the boards often. As a result, we've recommended them to many people. At this point we are very reflective and feel like...
