Hey everyone,
I hold a first class medical for my job.
The other day I tweaked something in my lower back while doing some yardwork. I have developed classic symptoms of a herniated/slipped disc: sciatica, numbness, and muscle weakness in the leg. From what I've read these symptoms go away over time. I have stopped flying and am scheduled to see a doctor sometime this week.
I wanted to see if anyone out there has had a similar experience or can give me some insight into what obstacles I may face trying to get my first class medical privileges back. Any advice is much appreciated.
Thanks!
