Hi. Well after 4 years of having dizzy spells, I went to the doc thinkin it was something minor. After many tests and medication trials I was referred to a Neurologist. He thought I may have epilepsy. EEG and MRI scan were inconclusive but I am now rubber stamped with Epilepsy!
I spoke to the Neurologist again today and he is 99.9% sure of his diagnosis.
The RAF downgraded me 13 months ago, I lost my driving licence and a lot of my auth's (EGR etc). I now have my licence back, still downgraded and need to go to Henlow and go in front of the Medical Board.
My symptoms were mnute, no-one new I had these dizzy spells and I was able to carry on with what I was doing, I just fely a little weird with it all for max of a minute!
I don't know what my prospects are:
Signed on for LOS30?
Allowed to go OOA (OPs)?
Medical discharge?
I was told there was a very small chance of being signed on to LOS30 (If not, I only have 2 years left!)
I'm told I may only be allowed on Non-OPs deployments (perhaps a 30 day trip on OPs).
I'm sure the MB will inform me of everything I need to know, but I may have to wait another few months to get down there! I'm a little tired of waiting and want to be armed with as much info/experiences as possible to prepare myself.
Has anyone been in a similar position? What are your experiences? Any advice?
Cheers everyone...
