My son has been seperated!

That is just what I have been telling him too. Push it and make them know you want to stay. He has not had a major reaction to anything, shaving is noticable and if he gets itchy for any reason, but…

I'm curious as to what has happen to your son? I received a frantic call from my daughter asking me to get a medical record from our family doctor saying due to needles she gets anxiety,she apparently passed out after giving blood while waiting in l…

They told him, "depending on the condition that is causing the ear infection". I hope that they are just pulling his chain. As far as I know he does not have a "Condition". At a loss right now.

Good Lord ear infections are causes for separation now? Next thing you know getting a paper cut will be, too. I'm not understanding this new trend for temporary illnesses being a catalyst at all.

My son is in GL and apparently has an ear infection pretty bad, according to his letters if it is not better by this Friday and he does not pass his 3rd audiology test, he will also be seperated. He is pretty upset, he has not had an ear infection f…

Unfortunatly, there is no incentive for the Navy to offer counseling to recruits. Or cater to any special medical needs. Not when money is tight and they have a waiting list of young people ready to step forward and take the place of a recruit with…

I've been hearing about a lot of discharges for temporary or minor conditions lately. I think right now the Navy is at a point where they can be VERY choosy and keep only the absolutely best, and sadly they're considering even the most minor physica…

I was notified today that my son is being seperated for psychological reasons. Apparently he broke last Friday (Week 1 Day5) and they have diagnosed him with an anxiety disorder. Does the Navy make no attempt to cousel them first? He had no issues o…

Tell him to tell them he wants to stay and wants a waiver. Tell him to push it. It may not work but it is worth a try. I researched dermatographism and it says about 4-5% of the population have this. Has he had major symptoms before? I wish him well.
