https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/is-it-possible-to-overturn-medical-waiver-spondylosis-for-woft <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I have a question about aviation medical waivers for Army WOFT. I&#39;ve been selected for WOFT however, in the midst of waiting to be released from my current service, my flight physical lapsed. When I re-did my physical, I was told I needed a waiver for an apparent back issue (spondylosis). This wasn&#39;t brought up on my initial physical when applying. <br /><br />The waiver authority denied my waiver, I applied for a reconsideration which was denied as well. Is there anything I can possibly do to have my waiver overturned so I do not lose this opportunity. Ive checked the waiver guide, I am Asymptomatic and have not had surgery. My flight surgeon has been working with me and helping as much as he could but no luck on his end either. I&#39;ve had nothing but outstanding PT scores for Navy, Marine, and Army. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

If the waiver authority and the reconsideration board reviewed and denied your waiver request, your path to flying for WOFT might be over. If I am reading AR 40–501 correctly, your diagnosis is a DQ for flight.
