First, let me say that I recently got accepted into NavalFlightSchool through NROTC. I commission May 5th.
I have had one ACL repair and a follow up surgery because it was still giving me pain. After a year and a half of rehab I finally recovered and passed my flight physical with flying colors in Pensacola, FL.
I recently injured my knee OCT 30 and got an MRI DEC 15 with the results that I have a torn oblique posterior horn of medial meniscus. I have not seen an orthopedic yet so I do not know if it will need a surgical answer. I stopped running for about a month and have just started running again with little or no pain. Before this injury my knee felt like new and I was running and doing calisthenics daily.
Do you think this could DQ me from flight if another surgery were required? Or just the fact that I injured it again could that be disqualifying?
