Can I join with asthma if it doesn't affect me at all e.g no consumption of enhalers for more than 5+ years?

Additional information
I have been trying to get in for 6+ years but been rejected due to having taken oral steroids when I was young and am in perfect physical health to train as my asthma is now under control, is there also any alternative jobs in the army other than combat roles which allow the average person to work?

Hi, I am unable to give medical advice as i am not a qualified medical professional. My advice would be to make an application and see what happens. You have to fill in a Family Origin Questionnaire when you apply and that will give you a better understanding.
