Yeah. All the cases I’ve researched dealt with the “D” side of things. I just really want to fly and serve. Worst case though I get DQ’d and go back to nursing, but I don’t really want that. I’ll shoot you a PM, Dayton.

I do. I just don’t have the “D” variant of the disorder. I have the other one (IBS-C). The one where I can’t shit. But I actually can if I just control it through diet which is what I was trying to articulate in my initial post. Sorry for the confusion.

Copy. Thanks for the responses guys.

I don’t have IBS-D so the chance of me shitting in the cockpit is zero lmao. Quite the opposite. Respectfully Sir, Where do you think I pulled the criteria from in my OP? I read the waiver guide and did use google. I’m not asking if the condition is DQ or not. I’m asking if anyone has it, and the likelihood of a waiver. Neither the commisioning guide/aircrew waiver guide disclose this. Thank you for your responses!

Any current aviators that are in with active, but controlled IBS-C/D? I know the waiver guide considers the condition non-DQ if asymptomatic and controlled by diet, but requiring meds or symptomatic requires review and waiver. What is the likelihood of receiving this waiver based on experience? Any input is greatly appreciated!
