Hello, I’m in the same boat as your son. Dodmerb requested a pft and a methacholine challenge test. Failed the methacholine challenge on the fourth level, I dropped 26%. Currently awaiting the waiver for the CGA, but I’m not hopeful. Just wondering what is the status of your sons waiver?

"Asthma/reactive airway disease/exercise induced bronchospasm" Waiver chances

I hope your experience will be different than our DD's. She was accepted EA this year. Her DQ for childhood asthma came pretty quickly, which was frustrating considering she did not even have it past age 11. After FIVE intense months with zero information and zero AMI requested she was DENIED her waiver. She was devastated, and they gave us little or no information and some very sorry excuses. They lost out on an exceptional candidate who would have made an impact at the academy who was DQ'd for something she wasn't even afflicted with.Hello, I’m in the same boat as your son.

I also was just denied a medical waiver by the USCGA for asthma. No AMI was requested but I went ahead and got a spirometry test done yesterday with the results coming back today as normal. I received the rejection before even submitting it. The decision said it was final and cannot be appealed...is it really the end of the road?
