You have to request for a medical review
Go and ask your camp MO for a specialist referral

Signal Operator as a runner.
They didn't revocate me when I ORD, maybe bc my downpes came nearing ORD

Not necessary

So you have been going for ICT without being revocated?

Can either email or call them
I believe ns.sg got the medical website in one of the links so can maybe request for a review there
If lazy then just wait till ict to sound off

Maybe is more about getting a revocation rather than downgrading. Cause your current vocation might not be suitable for your PES and they didn’t revocate.

request for medical review. if you cant find the link in the portal, u can simply call NS hotline and they will arrange your unit to contact you.

this link is the guidelines for medical review.

just that it is your responsibility to arrange for such a review asap if is before ict. Rather then you sounding out during your in-camp which would affect the operational readiness planning.

1 - get appt date
2 - medical condition to be reviewed by SAF medical board (every monthly)
3 - followed appt with MO to get your PES status
4 - your NS unit will be informed about your PES and your unit S1 will arrange for your revocation if needed.

estimated timeframe - less than 2 months from your first appt.
