My DD received a remedial Followed by a disqualification. We called our doctor right away. He felt he likely needed to write the report in a specific way because he felt that the issue was minor. We searched online and found the details on qualifying/disqualifying conditions. The doctor reviewed the standards, took additional tests and labs and resubmitted the more comprehensive report. She was fully qualified in a week! The waiver process did not even have time to process.

The question to me was about whether the medical information demonstrated enough specificity for a good decision. The fine print on the disqualified letter tells you that you can send more info to DODMERB.
