I recently was accepted to my dream school, which is very expensive, and have chosen the Air Force HPSP route to pay for it. I am very excited to do this, as I think I will have a great since of pride serving my country.
However, a few years ago I was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis, and two years ago had surgery to remove my colon. I now take no medications, and my former illness (as surgery is the cure) does not affect my life in a negative way whatsoever.
My medical records are currently under review at the Surgeon General's office. Does anyone know whether or not this will disqualify me from joining the Air Force? If it does, I'm going to be devastated, as I am excited to join the AF and will not be able to attend my dream school due to financial reasons.
