I recently tried to join the British army. I wanted to join the Parachute Regiment but would settle for another infantry regiment or a technical trade. But i was rejected on medical grounds.
The medical grounds are that i USED TO have Hirschsprungs disease. Aa disease that many doctors have not heard of. And, until a few years ago, was incurable, treatable, but not curable. But a revolutionary procedure came along that did cure it. I have had this cure and have had the al clear, this was 10 years ago. But, HM Forces state that anyone with te disease is an automatic fail, which is fair enough, but i do not have the disease anymore and have no chance of getting it again. Their book's don't know about this procedure and the doc's think i still have it.
I have the backing off my doctor and the doctors who performed the surgery and treatment saying i'm clear. I need to fight it as all i've ever wanted to do was join the army and will go all the way.
I'm fit enough. I can do 63 push ups in two minutes, 86 sit-ups and run a mile and a half in 9 minutes flat.
Please help.
Cowpat- It was curedwhn i was 8. I'm 18, docotrs say it has a blast of 3 years. If i didnt have any problems after i was 11 then i wont get any. And i will pay as much as i need to.
