Will one case of Bronchitis DQ me from DEP'ing in.

[RAHWZMY87]

I was recently processed at MEPS where I passed my physical. However, just before DEP'ing in, I said that I MAY have had a case of bronchitis about a year ago. The doctor at MEPS opened my file and instructed me to get the med records from that doctor visit.

I'm currently waiting for those docs and I'm not too worried about it, but I am a little worried.

Is this something I should stop thinking about or is it cause for concern?

Jose, you need to complete your profile per site rules. This thread will be closed until then.

When done, you can PM me or another Squad Leader/Admin to re-open the thread.

OK, profiled completed and thread re-opened.


As for your concern, I don't think one instance of bronchitis will DQ you. People get bronchitis all of the time. I used to, all of the time, until I quit smoking (hint - in case you smoke).

I don't smoke but thank you for the heads up on that. All I can do now is wait for my records and make the trek back up to Phoenix and hope I'll be able to DEP in.

Thank you for your service, sir.

Next time don't say anything. Way to go idiot, now you need paperwork.
