    Transition Group (Previously JPSU and DCSM)

    My condition and MELs unfortunately have me at home except for two half days per week. It is also only for socialization as simple tasks can cause my vertigo to increase.  I’m getting paid so will never complain but with my condition I also feel that I’m totally useless to the uniform. Posting...

    Transition Group (Previously JPSU and DCSM)

    I have a question on the length of time it typically takes for a member to see a posting message to JPSU.  Without going into too much detail, I’ve been dealing with vertigo and daily migraines for almost two years now.  My MO has submitted his PCAT recommendation and I have written a memo and...

    VR Question

    I hear you......it's just just frustrating I guess that something as simple as a headache and dizziness can take over your life and literally cripple you.  I'm pulling strings on things that I don't even know what I'm needing at this point and think judging by that, I've already become impatient...

    VR Question

    I haven't found an answer to this, and maybe that's a hint, but if a member VRs from Regs can that member get help with education just as someone being released medically?

    Dizziness/Vertigo

    Problem is...I can't answer my own question from a thread that I started....was just curious if any members had gone through or are going through similar issues?

    Dizziness/Vertigo

    Just curious if anyone has been medically released or going through procedure of release because of dealing with all day, every day dizziness accompanied by nausea and headache? So far it's only been 6 months worth for me with specialists and doctors and much time off work....hoping that it will...

    Sick Leave Length? - TCAT

    Writing this in bed severely frustrated at the last few months.  Haven't shared on here, but have been dealing with bad headaches and vertigo and nausea since end of May.  Has not gone away.  Have been seeing Military medical throughout and civilian doctors as well as having MRI's, CAT Scans...

    Leave Policy – Christmas / Holidays [Merged]

    Apologies, if this should be in a specific thread, but am wondering what the policy is for taking more than the 9 annual days at Christmas time that most units want you to have left by December.  I've been on sick leave for almost two months due to severe vertigo ( had condition since May) and...

    Dizziness/Vertigo

    Thanks I will definitely talk to the hospital about the epley manoeuvre.  I apparently will be having an appointment with a neurologist at some point and have seen a physio therapist one time so far.  I've already had an MRI and a test where they shoot water into the ear canal.  Since the onset...

    Dizziness/Vertigo

    Came across this thread in search of vertigo issues.  Wonder if anyone can shed some light on what happens if a military member has been suffering from dizzy spells ( not yet diagnosed) This has only been 5 months.  I have spent a majority of my time ashore on sick leave at home rather than at...

    Mobile Support Equipment Operator (MSE Op) [Merged]

    I'm sure you are correct....im not feeling good about my chances.  I do have my 404's and can see traffic lights no problem, but yes I guess I can see that there is still a difference.

    Mobile Support Equipment Operator (MSE Op) [Merged]

    Can anyone tell me if they have been able to get into the MSE OP trade with a CV 3? I have everything else in order with the exception of the CV3.  MSE OP requires a CV 2, but I am wondering if certain things are open to interpretation?  Certain things I know cannot be for example the Occupation...

    Mobile Support Equipment Operator (MSE Op) [Merged]

    Hi folks...been searching through the posts on anything MSEOP as I'm starting the remuster process.  Can any members here who are current MSEOPs please give me a bit of insight into the trade, experiences, etc? I'm hoping to wear the airforce uniform. Cheers

    Flight Steward/Attendant

    Guys, thank you.  I'm getting to the short end of my rope and wishing that I had not done a particular surgery.  It ended up putting my occupation as a 3 where a lot of trades require a 2 now.  I had been looking at doing an actual remuster to Supply tech but as of April 1st the category...

    Flight Steward/Attendant

    I am hoping someone can shed some light on this.  Flight Steward and Flight Attendant both require an Air Factor of 4.  I am a 5.  Does this mean (similar to having a 3 for occupation, when you need a 2) that I will not qualify for Flight Steward?  I believe that I already know the answer to my...

    trade specific medical requirements

    Just came from my doctors appointment and was told by the Military doctor that even though a trade assigns a specific occupation code, that mine being a 3 should not pose an issue.  Apparently it's the particular MELs that are looked at.  My MELs from 3 years ago are only 2 things, "Should avoid...

    Mobile Support Equipment Operator (MSE Op) [Merged]

    Hi, i am looking at a few trades to remuster into. I am looking at changing uniform from Navy to Air Force and wondered about MSE Ops training.  On the CF website, it says: After Basic Training, Army recruits go to a Military Training centre for the Basic Military Qualification - Land Course...
