I enlisted and took an oath on April, 2016 as a Army Reserve and I just received the ship date for basic combat training (BCT).

My recruiter scheduled me to go to the MEPS for inspection before I ship on March 1st, 2018.

My concern is that I recently got severely injured my lower back/hip area while I was working out and going through a terrible nerve pain.

I absolutely want to go to the BCT but I also do not want to be holdover at BCT or fail BCT or be injured more.

I am going to take my doctor's note and x-ray to MEPS to see what they say about this.

If MEPS doctor think that I will not make it through BCT, Will I get discharged or separated?

Will it going to be Entry Level Separation (Uncharacterized Discharge), since I haven't gone to BCT and it hasn't been more than 180 days of active duty service.
