If you have already had your army brief in your local armed forces careers office, this phone call could be telling you that your medical has been successfully accepted and you are ready to proceed on to the next stage which will be Assessment Centre.

If you have only just applied, the phonecall could be a triage call to confirm details and answer a few questions before attending your army brief.

With regards to any condition, if you have visited your GP regarding it then yes it will get picked up on your medical and then at Assessment Centre.

Give the number a call back, it could be good news!
