Regardless of what you want this hernia issue is standing in your way. either get it fixed and accept the possibility of being placed on a permanent profile or not; the decision is yours. My advice to you is go see the Doc and find out your options. If you dont want the surgery because of profile then so be it.

That being said, I dont want you serving on an ODA with one of my brothers while having a current issue that could not only cost your life but others as well. There is an issue here with your health and your ability to be a functioning member of an ODA or Ranger Platoon, depending on which path you choose, both of which will be very demanding on your body.

You have no been given advice from a senior SF Officer, (2) senior SF NCO's, and a junior SF NCO. What more do you need??

I truly wish you the best in your career, but SF/Ranger isnt it brother.
