You will go through meps most likely more than once, talk with a recruiter and have hard copy of your med documents.

As for waivers, keep in mind, the wars in the Middle East will be coming to a close soon, recruiting standards are likley to go up and even for people in the miltary already are going to pressed to keep their jobs should they want to stay in.

Even from different branches like the Navy and USAF, recruiting entry standards are way up from even 20 years ago. Also I am pretty darn sure they will test you for asthma.

These guys giving you this advice in this thread speak of the greater truth.

alright thanks for you help everyone.

looks like im not getting in, haha

Thirty years ago, there was a TV documentary following a group of recruits through basic training in the Parachute Regiment."The Paras".
Any of us UK guys remember it?
One guy hid his asthma when he joined, and when he started dropping out on runs, they sent him to the Medical Officer, where he admitted his condition.
He was out. "Ilegal Entry" marked on his papers.
I don't think that helped him find work afterwards, as it marked him as a dishonest person.
Asthma is a very complicated condition with numerous trigger factors.
It causes Broncho Spasm, a serious narrowing of the airways, and it is a killer. In extreme emergencies, a standard Ventolin/Salbutamol inhaler will not alleviate the condition and the patient will need hospitalisation
Its just not worth it.

Maybe he had severe asthma and it bothered him, mine isn't severe. I'm just gonna see how everything goes, I'm only 14 so maybe it will improve even more by the time I can join, I'm not just gonna give up on this because of this stupid condition that I have that doesen't even bother me and hasn't bothered me since I was a toddler, It's not worth not doing what I want to and trrying to accomplish something because I have the same problem millions of other people have. I'm sure theres many guys right now in the military with asthma and they got through with it. Im just gonna see what happens. Thanks for all your help guys

You have fighting spirit my friend.
Go for your dream - and take what comes.

Good luck mate

Go hard, make them carry you out.

It is a chance that you should not take - you can get your mates killed at that expense.

Sorry zaccs I have to agree with 42RM, you could be a liability to those around you in a combat situation.

But obviously check with your recruiter.

Go to a respiratory specialist.
Get checked out.
You can grow out of it, but get properly checked out.
If you have a clean bill of health from a specialist, then thats the bottom line.
Good luck, and all the best.
