The military turns down people for a lot of conditions you wouldn't expect to matter that much. My brother was disqualified from the Air Force for a barely perceptible tremor in his right hand and a case of heavy metal poisoning he had when he was younger (a landlord didn't inform my mother there was lead paint in the apartment). He didnt incur any permanent neurological damage from the poisoning but they still denied him.
