Hey everyone, I have my RN medical coming up soon and just got a couple of questions:
1) BMI - how strict is it that your in the normal range? at the moment mine is 31.4 BUT im a front row rugby player, who runs 3x a week and cycles 3x a week, I have also lost 10kgs since 1st of jan, and plan to lose another 5kgs....I'm fit!
2) also had keyhole surgery on my shoulder in october, its perfectly fine now 100% range of movement and its strong, I know it says on the official notes that you cant apply within 12 months of surgery, is keyhole included in this? can it be waived?
Im applying for a cadetship which means i wont start active training etc for at least another 3 years, is this taken into account with the medical?
thanks for your help
