the only incidents i can point to are a car crash in germany we were rear ended and i had a mild case of whiplash and one particular co had us doing a weekly cft with full kit and weapon and bft on mon,wed,fri.he was ex sas and thought we had to be up to their standards and he and the medical officer got censured as they colluded to keep people running even when injured. thats what caused my knee issues. we think the antiinflamatories i took all these years hid the spine issues and it was only when they were stopped after my heart attack that they became an issue. oh and i got hit by a bomb blast in n ireland but was ok, i was well away from it and just got knocked over and was deaf for a bit.
Mitch,
Although probably a bit late, did you ever submit a subject access request for your medical docs from the MOD?. It should show whenever you visited a MO and what for. Plus the treatment you were given.
They used to hand out Brufen and other nsaids like Smarties in the 80’s and 90’s and they covered up a multitude of injuries. In order to carry on with with normal duties, many people got more or less hooked on them and took them for years which isn’t what they recommend nowadays. Veterans UK are aware of this though.
Most further condition review cases do go through fairly routinely though, so don’t worry too much about it. It is just the (very) odd one that gets knocked back, but do get one of the ex-service organisations on board should this happen.
