    You need to contact a local recruiter to have him/her clear some of the conditions you mentioned through the MEPS before they can tell you if you're qualified to join. You will need to bring all medical documentation clearing you from those conditions to the recruiter so they can be evaluated by the MEPS. If the MEPS gives the recruiter a green light, then you're cleared to join.
