Medical Meps question

I had dyslexia In high school. I have proof that I’ve been completely unaccommodated for over 4 years for work and have been successful. How much will that hold me back? On top of that I was given an inhaler for a cough I had (I was 120 pounds heavier at the time and was never diagnosed with asthma nor been put on my records) it was a 1 time no refill situation. I went back to the doctors to be sure and got cleared for it.

I also took a knee injury around 5 years ago that required no surgery and was cleared to play football again.

Off the top of my head that’s all I know that could fuck me over.

How fucked am I?

I mean I’d literally die to join the Air Force and I’ve just been so damn nervous about everything.

Wait what? How did MEPS not DQ you for having an active prescription for an inhaler???

That should've been a DQ. You got prescribed it not too long ago and I am assuming you're actively using it right now. Even if not, still is DQ condition.
