Hip prosthesis

I have osteoarthritis in one of my hips from an injury, and I'm going to be getting either a resurfacing or a total hip replacement. Does anyone know if this is a waiverable condition, or am I SOL for military nursing? Are any of the services more lenient with waivers than others?

I think you would have a hard time getting into the military after having hip surgery. I don't think it would be fair to you either...do you feel that you could run 1.5-2 miles after that surgery deploy to all sorts of climates etc?

I would look into USPHS vs military nursing it has the same benefits, but easier physical requirements.
