Can I join the military if I have allergy-induced asthma?

All depends on what Med Cat you fall under. Try allergy shots before joining thats how I got rid of a few of my allergies (took 1.5yrs). If you havent had an asthma attack they will call it all 'allergies' so just put that on your form. Also introduce yourself to small amounts of dust and slowly increase the amount your exposed to, they did this to my son it causes a 'shock' to your system and can make your reactions not as bad.

well first of all i want you to know that the army is going to put you in a lot of situations where your allergies will really act up. like when you go to the field, or deploy to iraq and have to go through a sand storm. and some barracks are old and dusty which you may have to live in. or you may have to go to basic training during allergy season, which will make it really hard. but it doesnt really sound like you have asthma, i mean everyone has a hard time breathing when their allergies act up, with your nose being stuffy and mucus draining down your throat of course it is going to be hard to breathe. if you really want to join the military, and think that you can deal with the allergies, then you can, you just cant tell them that you have asthma or you will be disqualified. i joined the army and i had sports induced asthma but it wasnt bad at all, i just didnt tell them and i did fine in the army, to include a deployment to iraq.

that's a question you'd need to ask a recruiter.

no because the smoke will go inside your lungs by the explosions. then if too much gets in, your chances of living r 10%

I nearly said 'yes' but my husband (an Army Officer) says possibly not. It's the dust that's the problem. We wonder how you would manage in the desert when everyone is struggling to breathe? or in extreme cold? Why don't you ask if you can see an M.O who will be able to give you a definitive answer? In the British Army, you have to pass some pretty stringent fitness tests, could you cope under those conditions which are designed to make you breathless? I wish you great good luck in whatever career path you take.

You should be able to get into a combat service support job easiley. If you are looking to get into combat arms though you might have some trouble. Talk about it more with a recruiter, they will be able to provide more information.
