Quick Post

To all my 2 Fans. Sorry but this is going to be a quick post. Not really much has happend since my last blog except for the following. (Still think I dont have lousy doctors? Just wait!) So I went to fill out my pt test form which ask the following questions. 1. Do you have any illness or limitations not listed on a profile? My Answer No. My problem is listed on my profile. 2. Do you have any of the following symptoms? (there are a couple of them that I cant remember but one that applies to me) Dizziness with chest discomfort, dizziness, lightheaded? My answer is Yes. It is unusal to get dizzy when you are taking you child upstairs or for that matter when you cant keep up with your wife and shes pregnant. (Yes shes already had the baby, no shes not pregnant yet, and yes this has been going on since October she was well in her pregnancy and could have completed a marathon before me.). So I was givin a letter to take to my doctor to have signed saying what I could or could not do for the PT test. Now think about this I am currently on a profile saying No High Impact Activities. So then it goes to the base fitness improvement manager and she says that I should only be doing the bike test. No walking or running. So I think OK all I have to do is get my doctor to clear me for the ergo test. Right? Wrong!!! I go to the doctor today (a whole new person) and he says ok well its been going on since October so lets see if there is something that might be nerological that could be causing you to get dizzy. I say OK and then he walks out of the room to look at my chart. Guess who he brings back with him? You guessed it Dr. Cooke and Dr. Holden. (read previouse posts) so of course they say well it just deconditioning so you should be fine to take your PT test. I ask for the patient advocate and she comes in and doesnt say a word. So now I'm physically cleared by 1 Dr. Cooke and 2 Certified PA's (not sure what that means). Come to find out everyone I can make an appointment with works underneath this Dr. Cooke guy. So what am I to do? It is currently unknown at this time. They have post poned my test for tomorrow but they are going to want me to take the full test soon I am asuming. Now if I do that and fail (which I will because I cant run and they wont give me the time to get it back together) They are talking about taking a stripe. That would suck I wouldnt loose that much money but I would loose something that I worked hard for and earned. (I know God had a lot to do with that since I barely passed on my first time testing). I would rather they kick me out then to take the stripe away but I guess a process is a process. So I guess if I go back and they don't find anything else wrong with me then they may or may not talk about a MEB (Medical Examination Board) which would most likly medically discharge me. Not that I would fight it that hard if they said they had wanted it to happen today. I would like to spend my last year in the Air Force since that would be the end of my enlistment. But I guess if God wants me home before that then he'll see that I get there one way or another. So this was a quick post sorry if I didnt cover everything completly. If you have questions just leave them in the comments. Sean
