First, let me say one thing, as a NSF, anything done inside is
not consider wasting time. Believe me, chow keng time also
contribute in getting nearer to ORD.
So what if no problem need to recourse, then? Recourse lor! Now
NS only 2 years, if I do 2 mths BMT and OOC and waste 1 more month
lazing around for medical review, in the end need to recourse again
for another 3 mths. That is a total 6 mths over! Which means u are
now 1.5 years left to ORD.
So dun worry about the time thingy, remember ur aim is not
getting through to POP it is to get nearer to ORD.
As for medical wise, trust me, now can say no problem, but a few
months down the road? Who can confirmed? Trust me, alot of recruits
focus too much on the army liao, that is wrong, your health come
first, the training can go f**k itself later. You are responsible
for your own health NOT SAF. I have friends who just close one eye
on their medical problems and carry on with their training in the
end make their condition worse and lagi affect their whole
life.
NS only 2 years, no sense in making a condition which suppose to
be no problem for life become a condition that you have to suffer
to the day you die.
Lastly on MOs in SAF, sad to say, most MOs I come acrosss during
my active days score a zero in professionalism. Even, if they say
no problem and you must still seek a second opinion. Preferably
with your own family doctor whom you know or get a buddy/parent/etc
to accompany you to see another doctor outside.
I know getting someone to accompany u sounds abit ginnah but if
you are the kind that don't know how to argue with ppl type then
getting some accompany u sometimes can leverage and prevent the
other doctors "putting their MO face" on and assume you are chow
keng even before they diagnose you, YES, it happens outside also
(because most male doctors outside are ususally MOs during their NS
days also).
