My question is if I signed up to join the Army National Guard and went through the whole process got a good score on my ASVAB chose to work in Communications and went through the whole MEPS process but told them about past injuries I have had and they requested medical records but it took forever for the hospital to send them and when they finally came I just gave up but if I want to try again do I have to redo the whole entire MEPS process all over again or can I just bring them my medical records and go from there?

Pretty sure you have to start over. Regardless of how much time has gone by and you thinking that your medical situation, etc has not changed MEPS will not concur.

Depends on two things: How long it’s been and how much of your physical they completed.
You won’t need to retake the ASVAB as long as your current score is from within the last few years.
It is HIGHLY LIKELY your physical was not completed, meaning that you will have to entirely retake your physical, but in very rare cases I have seen applicants allowed to complete their physical and get held up pending documents. Those applicants still had to return to MEPS but were only subject to evaluation for the condition in their documents. Again, timeframe matters, because I had those applicants back on deck within a week because they didn’t flake on me.

Okay thanks and I got to the stage where I had to talk to the doctor and I mentioned about past surgeries and then they said before I can continue they needed me to bring my medical records from the hospital that I had the surgeries at but when the hospital took almost a month to send the records I just put everything on hold
