Unhappy dillema =(

I am a nursing student currently trying to figure out what unit would interest me in the future to work at. I was thinking of OR as an option. However, in my medsurg book, it states that surgical team with respiratory infections have to be reported. I have chronic sinus infection. I had surgery for it but then the doctor forgot I had frontal and ethmoid sinus infection and he only did surgery on my ethmoid so I still had a frontal sinus infection. After the surgery, I still had symptoms so he gave me antibiotics for them instead of doing surgery again. However, I think I probably still have an infection because I have bad seasonal allergies. Anyway, does this mean I wouldn't be able to work in the OR?
I was hoping to go back to school for CRNA but then I guess there wouldn't be a point if I can't work in the OR. Thank you for any advice!
