Ah, I see. With constant numbing, your PM is correct, the longer you let that go the more of a chance there is of it becoming permanent(mine did, the VA waited 2 years). It is good that they will help you while on Active Duty and probably the reason you were given the chance at more than one level, in this case and with the numbness I would go for it becomes too bad or you try to have the VA take care of it and try to connect it after your Discharge (which for me, has been a no joy exercise in futility.)
Please, if you can, Call Mark as he suggested. He has so much experience and can really be helpful. He has helped me many times.
Harsh, What Branch are you? It is good to have a fellow soldier on the board and I sincerely thank you for your service. PM me if you wish and let me know which Hospital is doing this for you also.
