i will be taking a Methacholine challenge for reenlistment in the US Army. i dont use any kind of medication dont have any problems breathing but i am nervous from all that i have been reading online. i ran three miles with out stopping just a few days ago. i do not want to fail the test i am paying cash for it and really want to get back in the service. its all i can think about and it would be a huge fall for me if i was to fail. what can i do to help me with the challenge? what would happen if a take a Claritin or Zyrtec before. i understand that cheating is not the thing to do but failure is not a option here. if you have any advice at all i would be grateful.
