Dodmerb is a weird one. I had a rotator cuff done in middle school and that required a waiver. Cadre really didn't want to push the paperwork, but I ended up getting the waiver. That was afrotc.
Some things that are minor are big no go. Might behoove you to read up on the waivers and what is allowed. If one can't pass the DODMERB. MEPS will be the same but more intensive screening.
