Came across this thread in search of vertigo issues. Wonder if anyone can shed some light on what happens if a military member has been suffering from dizzy spells ( not yet diagnosed)
This has only been 5 months. I have spent a majority of my time ashore on sick leave at home rather than at work because of the dizzy spells and frustrated because not only has the military doctor told the ministry of transportation about my vertigo (knew that would happen) but I haven't been allowed to return to work.... they continue to think that I'm better off at home. How long can the doctor keep me at home?
Also wondering if all efforts are exhausted to treat the symptoms and it continues how long of a process can it be before release? What I mean is can the doctor recommended a medical release after only one TCAT?
I'm in no way meeting my universality of service as I can't work in my element, sitting at a desk does not make a difference, and can't even work out without becoming dizzy. This has basically become a nightmare.
