Wow, I passed all my examinations however was given a page to go and clear up this peanut allergy issue. I got a rash after eating some peanuts about 6 years ago and the Dr. gave me an epipen and told me to stay away from peanuts. When I signed up I obviously let them know about the allergy ... which I have not been tested for ever. The military gave me a form and insisted that I go to my Dr. and have them filled out. I went to my dr. and they indicated that I may get a rash if I eat peanuts and gave me a prescription for an epipen. The fact that I have never had to get medical treatment due to this allergy is still going to exclude me from getting into the military?
I am completely heartbroken that this is the case. I guess I can go and get some sort of allergy testing done and see if the severity of the allergy calls for the epipen but this will really result in exclusion?
I also suffered from headaches which makes me sensitive to light ... will that also have an impact on recruiting??
