Well those are very specific health issues, and only a recruiter can tell you for sure what the answer would be. But you are right - sometimes talking to the wrong recruiter will get no solid answers, or might finish you off before you even get started. We know that the mere mention of some issues (that will also go away with agw, such as some types of asthma problems) that is the end.
We also know of individuals who have made the decision to just not say anything about any asthma that they had when they were kids (or whatever) and it has turned out fine for them and they have enjoyed a long and happy career in the military. It is a hard thing. You need to find some recruiter you can TRUST who won't fill you full of bull, and will tell you the real deal without crucifying you for what you have no control over.
We have heard of every story in the book all the way from guys/gals sliding by quietly keeping their former ailments quiet, to kids going all the way to the surgeon general for a waiver for something that hasn't effected them since they were 2 years and still can't get into the service. It sounds like a gamble, but you need to find an honest recruiter you can trust... Keep us posted and good luck - if being a SEAL is your dream, go for it!
