    Past injury and applying

    Thanks. Unfortunally, the recruiting centre won't let me talk to a doctor until I've done (again) the other tests.

    Past injury and applying

    Hello, Four years ago I enrolled in the CF. I did pass all tests and everything, I was in good shape, but 5 days before my BMQ date, I've had a bad wrist injury that restricted me to not doing push-ups for years. Now my wrist is ok, but I will probably never be able to do a regular pushup again...

    Medical assistance

    Thanks for those who responded. You might think I'm an idiot, I'm not. It's just I haven't gone through basic training, therefore I am not aware of what to do and what not to do when you're military and need assistance. I'm guessing they teach you this stuff in basic. I didn't know I HAD to go...

    Medical assistance

    You seem to not understand my question. You're no doctor, and I am not. And I didn't want to go in details about the injury. I didn't ask for any diagnostic in here. I guess I just expressed myself wrong. So here is it again: If you go through military doctors, is the process faster than...

    Medical assistance

    There's this certain time between the day you get sworn in and your BMQ date. They give you a paper and you're on "leave" for a couple days. I guess I'm still on leave but since months. Why are you saying I'm scared of what they tell me about my injury? I'm up for anything... even surgery...

    Medical assistance

    I am enrolled, sworn in, but "unemployed". I receive no money from the army. My file is on hold at the recruiting center. I've seen a few medics. One military, 2 civies. They all have differents diagnostics. Probably because they're lazy to refer me to the specialists I need to see. After a...

    Friendly Advice

    Here's a friendly advice preparing for BMQ... So yeah, you've got your BMQ date in a month. Stressed as hell. You can do way more pushups as the standards, can run 8kms.. but you still think you should get better? Good attitude, but don't go crazy. 1 month before BMQ, I was like "Well in the...

    Update = If I am not completely healed before BMQ date they will offer me a job at the recruiting center. Wonder what it is. I asked the medical staff about it, they laughed and said "b*tch work". Duh

    Injuried

    After re-doing the entire medical test at the RC, they figured injuries has to be reported to your UNIT and since they are only a medical 'detach' they couldn't do anything with me. They sent me to Valcartier (CSV) and I got to see a doctor there. I am pretty happy with the service in general...

    I thought it was healed until I started doing push-ups again. I did wait the minimum time he told me to before start PT again. I called the RC and they told me to show up tomorrow morning for a medical update. Started physiotherapy today to get all chances on my side. Are you eligible to the...
