Should I cancel my disability before I know for sure I'm going to be able to re-enlist?

My recruiter just told me that it'd be a 50/50 chance that the commander would allow me back in, but he said he couldn't send them any paperwork until I've cancelled my disability.

But here is the rub of a question: What if you cancel your disability and then get told that you can't come back in?

I was told that if I do, it'd be very difficult to regain the benefits if I don't get back in which is why they said to make sure I'm allowed back in first.

Oye.... mental image of the scales... on one hand, a nominal disability check...depending on the percentage, possible retirement instead... with full medical for life.... on the other hand... the chance to remain in the military... that's tough.
Can only state what I would do, which is probably take the disability, as its a sure thing... the re up is not a sure thing. Just saying.

That's a hard decision. I wouldn't cancel disability and stick with what you have. My opinion
