Brain Tumor and Military
I have a tumor in my brain i have no idea until the 18th of this month what kind it is. But i was wondering if i have it removed can i still be in the military? i mean if its removed there shouldnt be anything wrong with me right? please help with that because thats like my future is to be in the Air Force so i was just wondering thanks!
Yes, the military has medical care. In fact, they have care at NIH and other places and when there is something out of the ordinary, you can petition to be treated at a civilian hospital but it takes some work so make sure that you have an advocate on your side (family member or friend) to help you through all this.
I hope everything turns out ok.
