Setting aside that statement's accuracy, which of the OP's prior diagnoses give you so much concern. I see two, already mentioned that will raise an eyebrow. But sprained pinkies and plantar fasciitis? GERD? It reads like a laundry list of injuries to someone who was in some **** and came out sore all over. I doubt any of the AME's I've been to, including Kramer, would have much concern about any of the musculoskeletal issues other than weight bearing and range of motion.
Ah, so when you wroteSee post 40…… the Doctor is in the house.
you meant just the one thing that the OP actually bolded knowing that it might be an issue.I’d you were an AME, would you give one to someone with all this?
I would love to know where are you in the process? Did you consult with Dr. Kramer? Any tips on your journey that you’d like to share?New here guys, I know this topic has been discussed but my case is slightly different. I am a Usmc vet with a 100% total and permanent rating.

I did bold #16 because I think it’s the one I’ll have an issue with. This was diagnosed upon EAS, i was never prescribed any meds for it or told to go see a therapist or anything. In fact I have never been prescribed any drug for any of these, I just take over the counter stuff when I need to. I am currently waiting on a consult with Dr.Kramer in Frisco TX, I’ve heard he’s the best for cases like mine. Any input would be extremely appreciated
No idea what your life is really like or whether you are fit for your goal.i understand where youre coming from but i can tell you this. this list makes everything seems WAAAYYY more crazy than it is. it makes it look like im some broken bodied, crippled person that cant do anything. in reality im in my mid 20's, im very active, i go to the gym everyday, i go out on the weekends, i go to college part time, i live a normal like with a little extra pain in my shoulders, knees, hips, and elbows at times, not all at once like a grenade going off.
