Throwaway account for obvious reasons. I'm a pilot not too long out of my B-course and have been operational for less than a year. I recently developed some respiratory issues that I noticed during regular exercise. I went offline to see a civilian doctor who thinks that it's either some sort of Vocal Cord Dysfunction (not what it sounds like...similar to asthma in concept but symptoms present differently) OR some sort of laryngospasm issue. All of it is exercise induced. It's by no means life threatening but something that is very uncomfortable and I'd like to get treated without paying cash and avoiding the whole permanent DNIF thing.

I'm wondering if I do go the stand-up route and get DNIF'd awaiting waiver, etc...what I'd be actually looking at. How does the air force medical community treat these issues especially for already trained pilot assets? Is it a DQ? Is it waiverable? Does the process take a long time?
