Medical question

22m, I was diagnosed with nervous tick disorder or whatever you wanna call it and I’ve been going to college for a criminal justice degree because my whole goal is to be a patrol officer, but two years ago for some reason I started having these minor headaches where I felt the urge to shake my head, but when I didn’t focus on it, it was like it wasn’t there, but when I do focus on it, I tend to shake my head a little bit more but very controlled and I’m on medication for but I’m in the gym five times a week at work a full-time job and I run 15-ish Miles a week. Do you think my dream of being a police officer is done and I should pursue something else. The past two years I’ve managed to fight the diagnosis and control it to the point people barely realize it but obviously still havd it well I be disqualified during medical evaluation for police departments.
