Further comments. 1) I once got a count of comments on HN that reference adhd or ADHD. There were over a million. Your's is not an insurmountable problem.

2) While you can't compete head on with CS grads with excellent grades, you don't need to. Domain knowledge can be critical in this. If you are applying to a s/w house that specializes in medical s/w, a few classes in medical technology or managing a medical practice could be decisive. In such a case I wouldn't apply through a CS headhunter but through a headhunter that specializes in a medical field and who might have a client who needs your help.

Good luck!
