How tough is it to get a waiver these days?

[Cespinoza]

Stats below, originally joined the Navy with a pilot slot and right before OCS graduation I got the "NAMI Whammi" for self diagnosing migraines. Haven't had one in over 10 years. Had a good shot with Reno ANG but COVID fixed their manning issue cancelling the board to which I was applying. Looking to join a unit preferably on the west coast but will probably need 3 waivers- Age, Commissioned service, migraines. Anyone have an idea if I have a shot (pilot or CSO) or should I just stick with the devil I know? Thanks in advance.

My colleague has a son who is trying to go to AF UPT. A fighter squadron in OK wants him. He has a Drusen in one eye, however. Is he eligible for a waiver?
