Hey all, looking for guidance on what to do about a DQ due to taking melatonin? I was slapped with D213.00 back in April, and it states “Chronic Insomnia within past year.”
They had asked about melatonin use that had been noted in a separate remedial that they sent me to. I had no idea that taking melatonin was by any means unacceptable for ascension standards, as most of my officers and fellow Sailors have taken it in the past.
I’m a prior enlisted Sailor — recently separated. I’ve been attending a maritime academy since that time, and have been spending significant time at sea over the past year. I never expected to have this much trouble with getting through medical with DoDMERB. I’m a bit frustrated at this point and am trying to figure out what my options are. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
