I was hoping to join the Army but this disease does count as a Disqualification but i think its still worth speaking to a recruiter about it as the tablets they have me on and working 100%! Have not had any problems since i have been on them (Almost a Month.). Im fit, strong and able.

The other option i was thinking about is Volunteering overseas, think it would be a great experience getting to travel the world, help overs and get to know other languages and cultures. Im a guy who likes to get my hands dirty, an office job isn't for me. Messaged a site i was looking at seeing if this illness is a problem.


What do you think on the matter? Personally im more for the Army but im doubtful i will be accepted, Fingers crossed.

Im perfectly fit and able and would like to go for infantry. Just have to see what the recruiter says.
 
I think the way the army works, it doesnt matter what post you go in you have to be 100% fit. I dont think they can take the chance that you may get ill with the disease further on in your life, even if you are ok now.
