Is repaired? What bypass? Do you have a tube for gastric feedings? Or did they just do a resection? be more specific. Surgeries of the resection nature should not be prohibiting you from entering? But the Meps test is entirely thorough in the Navy for sure. Just go take the test and then you will know?

I would speak on base to the base doctor. They do the after ASFAB physicals. And if you pass the physical you are in the military. I do not think there is any change in the military fighter aircraft but the eyes. 2) you could also pilot other aircraft as well and once your in to the piloting program they give you a pick of aircraft you can pilot. non of them may be fighters. You will have to take the test to see.

That is a damn good question. I can't say for sure the high G's on your stomach may preclude you but I don't know for sure. I would ask the local recruiter he may not know at the time but he can find out for sure. Or you may check in at a local reserve center talk to the people there there has to be some doctor or corpsman there who can help.

NO because it would hinder your ability to eat/drink in a survivabilty instance such as a shootdown in enemy territory. And that doesn' t include Navy Chow and Survivibility courses you would have to go thru. Hell you might not even be able to join.

NO. You have to be in top medical fitness to be a fighter pilot. Go to college and find another career.

You have to be able to pass regular physical exams. You should speak to a doctor familiar with these exams.
Also, you may find some information at www.faa.gov.
