1. You are doing the right thing by visiting your primary care physician. He is familiar with your medical history. He can request a waiver (if one is needed).
2. As the end of the month approacheds, there is more pressure on the recruiters to make mission (quota).
3. Stick to your guns. Never, never quit!

Thank you Ranger Jim, unfortunately i no longer have medical insurance and with money being a situation at the moment seeing a personal doctor is not an option. I am however re-testing at MEPS and have no problems popping my ears at home i believe i was somewhat congested at the first test.
