Austin Rouse 3744997 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>When I was 18 was discharged for medical reasons. It was believed that I suffered a seizure well at basic and was diagnosed with epilepsy. I was rushed to the hospital where they did multiple tests and determined I had actually not suffered from a seizure, that it was a concussion and I was simply unconscious when they found me, but that I was fine. They told me to report to sickcall for an update later that week. So I was forced to go to sick call week after week because the drs there felt something was wrong with me. They diagnosed me with epilepsy and I was discharged. This all happend within he first 50 days of arriving at basic. sense then I have had multiple civilian drs give me different tests and all concluded I do not and never have had epilepsy. I know it will be challenging but I was wondering if it’s possible for me to re enlist. It had been 5 years sense the discharge date in October. 2018-06-26T16:22:27-04:00 Austin Rouse 3744997

You will need medical documentation showing the situation no longer exists - anything that you have from military docs that might show that you did not, in fact, have a seizure, will be greatly helpful to you. You will also need a KICKASS recruiter that will not run at the first sight of difficulty. I&#39;ve been going through this process for 18 years.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Something else you can do is send a letter to the Discharge Review Board of the appropriate service. With the correct documentation, they can upgrade your RE Code. I had mine changed from a RE4 to a RE1.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Just an update to anyone Who is in the same situation and curious, in less then one month I got a re entry waiver cleard, and was not required to get a waiver to re enlist. The army dr agreed that it does not seem That I have anything preventing me from going to basic. I signed an option 40 contract last Saturday and ship out in a few months from now. Thanks to everyone that gave me support and helped answer my questions.
