hi everyone im cassie, new here so i may have posted in the wrong section....hopefully not!
i am currently going through my application for the band service.
ive had two medicals and have been failed twice.
This is because i had "extremely mild" knee problems and it hasnt been a year since the problem.
since having that problem ive lost 3 stone, strengthened my thigh muscles, have had no other problems and Ive been completely dscharged from the orthapedics clinic.
The doctor i saw for my medical asked for a full medical history about my knees, but i couldnt afford it so i got a letter from the specialist stating i have nothing wrong with me.
the doctor i saw for the medical still wont put me through, because it hasnt been a year since...
its been 8 months since any problems, is there any way of seeing another doctor? or a navy doctor? or would it be better to wait until june to get a remed? im so impatient! i would ask the RMC Sgt who has been handling my application but his currently on compassionate leave....any advice would be lovely :mrgreen:
