Hi everyone,
After doing a quick search I couldn’t see anything on this subject.
On my face to face medical the Dr. picked up a 10p sized rash on my forearm I’d never considered it before. TMU me and sent me away to get it NHS treated, which I did. Came back for the limited review, no rash = signed off.
Now 2 weeks on from the medical my rash has come back by 3/4 times the size. I need to go back to the NHS dr. And get it seen to again, the original fix hasn’t worked or something else has kicked off with my skin/reaction.
I know the answer is tell the AFCO and go back to the NHS but it’s just painful knowing if it is anything serious skin related it carries potential bar to entry or 3 year lay off which would put to bed my Navy career.
Does the fact CAPITA signed me off means it’s fine to carry on?
Any advice or anyone been in these shoes?
