I was disqualified for GERD and IBS. I did not know I had GERD until I was getting medical records from the past 5 years to submit with my pre commissioning physical. I have never taken any medication for it. I had some stomach issues in 2014 when trying to reintroduce meat back into my diet after being a vegetarian for 5 years and it was diagnosed as IBS and apparently GERD. Instead of taking a bunch of medication I just chose to cut meat out of my diet again. Since then I have had no issues
I was just wondering if GERD is waiverable?
I have searched the forums for information on GERD but there seems to be no clear answer on this.
I have asked my recruiter but they were not sure and stated that they have never seen one granted.
I also looked at the waiver guide but it appears it is not waiverable for applicants?
