  good evening sg forum

  If i have flexible pes planus and bilateral hallux valgus.. obtained from the memo of the orthepedic specialist..

  i gave the memo to the mo of bmtc, and he recommended to board me at c2l2..

  The insoles are made, but they will take a few weeks to be ready..

   

  therefore my questions are:

  1) What are my chances of getting a downgrade?

  2) will i be oot since i have excuse RMJ and boots till i get my insoles?

  Thanks

  Sigh..... what's with all these threads about 'What are the chances of _____?' 

  At the risk of sounding sarcastic, we'd like to help you, but we can't read the minds of the decision-makers.

  The SAF is trying to keep every1 as high PES as possible. You have to understand that some people have flat foot, but they are pronated normally. Hence they can be Pes B.

  If the specialist has recommended a lower Pes then most likely the SAF mo will just follow and put it up to medical board according. After all, he is just a small fry in the medical hierarchy he have no say. Most likely he will send to see the SAF orthopedic specialist for a second view.

  Just keep on visiting the medical centre, whack with Physio and MC until your medical condition is resolved. 

  If it is bad enough, then every time you take IPPT you will need report sick, and whack with pain killer.

  If incorrect walking or running motion, the joints might be worn out more quickly, so it will result is pain, swelling as symptom and eventually it will leads to arthritis later (might not be old). So take care.

  MO obey medical grading directives, it means the medical board chairman most likely will  downpes to C2L2 as his condition is downgradable in medical grading system.

  U gt any excuses like excuse Running marching jogging or lower limbs?

  Thanks Lokey for the advice,

  i think i am already suffering for the effects of my conditions..  Whenever i recover from kneeling or squating position, i will put alot of strain on my knee.. i have to use my hands to support myself. And usually after a bath, i can feel some pain at my big toe bone..i wonder if this is arthritis?

  Hello StarDust,

  i have excuse RMJ and Boots for a couple of months.. i wonder if this is the case, is it allright for me to turn down any activities that requires leg work such as Route Marches, 2.4km, Caydens, AGR, etc.. ?

  Will my absence in these activities prevent me from hitting the 75% attendance requirement to POP?

  When i signed the medical board papers, i have also signed the oot form..

  Thanks

  i will not know if i will down pes before my excuse expires.. But i heard my medical board is over, so now i am waiting for the results.. However for my condition, unless there is surgery, it will be a permanent condition. The insoles that have yet to come will only provide relief to a certain extent.

  and pepper, if i cant pass out, when will i recourse?

  If you already boarded then the HQ should have been informed of your new status, as for insoles if I not wrong you can claim for it. But detail have to check with your chief clerk or your PC. As for recourse had to depend on when is the next recourse, some very fast, some had to wait until when they nearly ORDed then go, fyi no recourse no rank, so you are going to be a Rec until u go bmt.

  anw if the results are fast enough, there can also be a transfer to the respective PES C coy that is open for intake somewhere in the middle of the PTP course.
