Hello everyone. First time poster from Iowa. I am currently in paramedic training and have been thinking of pursuing a fire science degree afterwards.
I was wondering what the physical requirements would be to become a fire fighter. I have a total knee replacement and was wondering if anyone would hire someone with this? I am 23 years old and have had it since I was 15. You would never know that I have it, as I do things that anyone would do with a normal knee and I feel that I would be ok. I understand the wear and tear on the joint but it has held up great so far and I am surprised nothing has happened since I am hard on it.
Any fire fighters with knee replacements out there? Would love to hear some comments on this subject. Thanks
