At MEPS during entry to AF in 1995, med doctor asked about health issues, advised him of rapid heart beat just to cover bases. He asked if it bothered me and I told him it did not. So, during basic training I got a resp. infection and went to dispensary. Vitals taken, and I believe due to all of the physical activity, heart was doing its rapid heart beat thing. EKG done... no signs of issues however military med doctors said it was probably PSVT, discharged me and advised me to see a civilian doctor. I have done that twice since 1995 and there's never been a PSVT diagnosis or anything other than a rapid heart beat at times. I want to go USAR since now I'm 35 and too old for the AF. Any ideas on whether I could if I show proof that civilian doctors could not confirm diagnosis? I've grown quite used to the issue, and no meds have ever been prescribed.
