In the military there is a waiver for everything, it just depends on how much they need you.

If anyone is going to MEPS in the future, keep this in mind: They only know what you tell them. If you want to get in, don't tell them of your limitations. It only causes you to go through ALOT of paperwork. In the end though, you'll get through. Unless its AF.

can you get disqualified for being overweight?

Who said it was a panic attack? Did a doctor actually diagnose it? If you had a bad day some time in the past and you yourself called it such, it isn't even that, most likely. You are a dental student/ dentist, so don't label yourself with psyc terms, next time you go, don't say anything.
