Is it true that if you have scoliosis , you will have difficulty getting a working visa(nurse) for the U.S.?


i am a registered nurse in the Philippines... i have scoliosis and am worried that it might be difficult for me to apply for a visa to the U.S... my scoliosis doesn't really bother me..in fact, i have done a lot of things, i actually bowl, surf, skate, climb, play tennis and badminton, and so far, it doesn't interfere with my daily activities and work as well...i am so worried...can anyone please help me....

I work in the US, and I have scoliosis. I do not think there would be any restrictions for you getting a work visa because of your medical condition. Many women have some form of scoliosis. Good luck!

I don't see why there would be any problem.
