Apparently, all my orthopedic issues matter, too. I've been in back treatment for years. Also, my shoulders are shot. Been doing physical therapy since 2015,. I was so laser focused on my mental stuff, I never considered all my physical stuff

I always thought it must be automatic, but a friend of mine with a bad hip was accepted his first try, so hopefully youll get lucky.
