I am currently in pes e9i9, have enzemia and chronic eye problems, since going in my conditions been getting worse and worse,my specialist told me that if this continues i will go blind soon, is it possible to down to pes F with a letter from a specialist in the hopspital stating that it cannot go on any longer? or is it impossible still and im condemned to lose my sight

Lokey SG

Of course. Can. Book your eye specialist now, for an eye check up.

Ask for a long term attend C or further down Pes.

Hi MO,

i am alrdy orded...recently i got a memo from my physiotherapist to recommend that i excuse from running while undergoing physiotherapy due to persist ankle pain(achilles heel) and knee pain from training from ippt.

I am having a appt with SAF MO to endorse my memo this coming week. Do you think this physiotherapist MEMO is sufficient to allow MO to excuse me temporarily from running for this year ippt windows? I will only be seeing my specialist this end of year, so i can't get the memo from the specialist before seeing MO. Is physiotherapist MEMO tanamount to specialist memo?

Rednano SG

yeah...

no specialist memo, no talk.

got specialist memo, got talk.

Hi MO,

Whatever it is, just submit whatever supporting documents such as the memo to the camp MO will do.

thks for ur quick reply. So the MO will recognised physiotherapist opinions written in the MEMO or i ned waste more $$ to get a immediate specialist memo? this is the only supporting docs i hav.

Rednano SG

see 1st...

if camp doctor is ok with the physiotherapist memo, then good for you.

if camp doctor wants the specialist memo, then you got to spend money to get it lor...

so take a wait and see approach... action to act accordingly to situation.

It's all depends on what's on the specialist memo and in reference to the MO's PES Directive.

Therefore, it's still whatever it is, just submit whatever supporting documents to the camp MO.

Need advice !!

Currenlty a nsmen at RSAF. During NS time, is having temp c9L2 for ankle problem (due to bike accident) and expiry date of temp C9 is on my ord date which is at mid - 2008 (At that time i also nv care less, was thinking just wait for them to ask me go for medical review den say). And all the way from then till now, there is no scheduled for medical review and also ask me to take ippt at all but i already went for 3times of ICT already.

Suddenly last week receive sms from mindef asking me to go for medical review end of this month at my base. Already book appointment with specialist for review of my ankle problem. Need advice on will there be any issue of me go back to MO and gave him another memo from specialist since is so long ago already and will they review my PES again ??

THanks for the advice.

Jericlo SG

With refer to the above post, my pes review is originally at 31st aug 2011 but it clashes with my medical appointment with specialist, so I requested to change it to 8 Sep 2011 and is approved already, I even got the mindef notification.

But last night I received another notification telling me the pes review on 8th Sep 2011 is cancelled .. Need advice on what is going on and what I need to do?

So just wait will do.

If even the official reply is to wait for further notice, do you think how possible for we here to know when we don't work at CMPB to access any data?

Hi MO,

when is your windows open?

from ns.sg

Q1 What if I am injured or medically unfit to take my non-ICT IPPT during my qualifying window?
It is important that you seek medical treatment on your own should you be injured or is medically unfit. The medical certificate that your doctor issued to you is recognised as valid medical excuse. However, you can only be exempted from the annual IPPT if you have a 6 months consecutive or 9 months cumulative of valid medical excuse within the same IPPT qualifying window. You are advised to contact your NS Unit to request for a medical review if you have more than 3 months of medical excuse for a particular injury that prevents you from taking your IPPT.

Q2 What if my 6 months consecutive or 9 months cumulative medical excuse straddle across two IPPT qualifying windows?
You would be dealt with as an 'IPPT Defaulter' in the 1st qualifying window. Hence it is strongly encouraged that you should book your IPPT immediately after your qualifying window has started.

LOL

Permant C9L3 here, juz few questions to ask.

1. Can i go out field to "chiong"

2. How many ICTs i muz attend to be completed which u dun need to go anymore

Jericlo SG

when is your windows open?

from ns.sg

I thk my birthday open after dec cos my birthday is on dec. But as mentioned, since my ord which is at June 2008 till now, i did not attend IPPT at all nor they ask me back for medical review. But ICT i already go back for 3 times alr. And also, whenever at ns.sg when i key in my particular under the book ippt/rt, it always show 'Your NRIC No is not found in the IPPT system', even till now is the same.

So i am not sure what is going on now. Ask me back for medical review and suddenly tell me is cancelled. Specialist already ask me go MRI scan and wrote a memo to MO stating that he will see the MRI report before further discussing my issue. Now the memo is with me but tell me medical review is cancelled.

Called ns hotline and they tell me they will send a request to my unit and someone will call me back within 3-5days.

Dunno if will kana charge anot cos i really miss IPPT for very long.

Hi,

I am enlisting on Sept 8th (Mono intake Selerang Camp PTP) 10AM. My schoolmate happened to be enlisting on the same day, same camp and same time as well. I would like to ask:

1. Does that mean we will be in the same coy? (Cause' from what I know, some are reporting at 9.30AM, some at 10.30AM etc)
2. Am I right to say a coy has 4 platoon? A platoon has 4 sections? A section has around 14 people? (I know this is a classic question but would still like to confirm..)
3. Bunk, does they allocate us in birth date order? (I read some post, the user said in his camp, there are 4 floor and its sorted from the top youngest to the bottom oldest. Does that apply to mono-intake as well?) My friend and my birthday is only 6 days apart, same year somemore. High chance we might be same bunk too?
4. Do we get to learn swimming in PTP?

Can anyone clarify my doubts? Thank you! :)
