Hi Eac,
How can i manage to get a downgrade? The specialist has closed the case. Pls help. No memo for me to show camp MO. In fact, the specialist told me all my test results are ok. Frankly speaking, I feel that MVP patients should not in PES A/B and doing normal IPPT.
Pls advise

the thing was that the specialist not willing to give
me the report, he told me too confidential...
MO have to request the report from him.
And also If MO want to excuse me from my next ICT,
Can i just tell my camp in charge I still want to attend
it?

I do not think your camp in charge will go against the MO unless you can really convince him otherwiese since he would have to be answerable if anything happen to you when the MO already forbid you from attending the ICT.

I went to see twice liao. then all he did was eye drops. and i dunno whether got refer to specialist or not. cuz they like never call or anything to inform date of appt. the eye drops only solve the prob on the surface. but my eyes still gets sore every night.

If you don't mind spending money then go see specialist on your own or request MO to refer you to specialist lo

Find another hospital specialist then for a second opinion.
If you have the money, find a private specialist. e.g. Raffles Hospital, Gleneagles Hospital...etc.

Alternatively, just report sick at the A&E of a public hospital with your 11B, then request the attending doctor to refer you/ fix a specialist appointment for you at the public hospital.

You should follow the instructions from the camp MO then.

The 11B is to waive the charges? If i follow this way which u mentioned when can i get to see a specialist? My eyes are not sore now as i slept at home last night... Will they accept me if i go to A&E when my eyes seem normal?

If you are a NSF, yes the 11B is to charge the bill to Mindef.
Thru the A&E doctor, you may get a specialist appointment date. Even now when your eyes are okay, you just bring whatever medications you are given by the camp MO, with a good verbal description of what happened while in camp to the A&E doctor will do.
I was just recently diagnosed by my doctor to have sacroilisis and the MO told me that he would downgrade my PES status. Anyone knows what grade I would end up with and I'm currently a trainee maedic in BMC, so would the PES status I end up with make me OOC?

Ok then i wait for my appt to come from MO ba.. Is it possible for them to revocate me for my problem? Will i stay in that camp or get posted out? Heard rumours that you can never be posted out of the camp even if u revocate.

Originally posted by marcteng:To see those private specialists costs a lot of money, usually 200-300.
if you are not in a hurry, go to polyclinic and ask for referral to see a public hospital specialists, under subsidized payment ie pay by your CPF medicare account, about less than 100, about 80-90.
Oh i thought 11B makes everything free already? I have already asked the MO to refer me to specialist liao. So no point asking polyclinics to refer me again ba... Just that in case I feel i cant wait anymore i straight go see private liao... Oh so u are saying private specialists letter they sure accept la?
