I'd suggest a reschedule of the AME visit until you get your numbers in order. You are setting yourself up for a denial and the additional time and cost of resubmitting.

This, too. :yeahthat:

Feb xx, 2017 Ergent Care, Dr. My Doc, MD (reason) Flu. 18b. No ...... I've experienced dizziness, occasionally, on New Years Eve and never reported it on my exam. Ever spin around until you got dizzy? No report necessary for that either. Flu should be no different. Seems like a non-issue...

Or charge more.

Me, too. I became a chewing gum addict for many years. :D

Good advice. Short achievable goals. I did hours, then days, weeks, months and years. I'm now working on decades.

Life will always throw you a reason to start smoke again. No reason is acceptable. Hang in there. Sorry for the loss of your friend.

The urge to smoke will stay with you for a while. It gets easier to ignore as time goes by. Then one day you realize you hadn't thought about it at all. Best thing I ever did for myself. Quitting was what got me into flying. Everyday I would put aside the money I saved on cigarettes that day...

Start with a change in attitude. You said in your first post. I CAN'T. As long as you keep that perspective, you won't. Take it from an ex-smoker (40 yrs of cigarettes), you can if, and when, you REALLY want. It's not easy and no one can do it for you. Everyone is giving you good advise, but it...

Congratulations on achieving remission, Greg. I am in remission from Non Hodgkins Lymphoma. I received a SI that was removed after 7 years of being cancer free. During that time I was required to send reports yearly. Not a big deal, as I had to visit my oncologist yearly anyway. As mentioned...

What's to stop them from changing the rules and requiring a 'Special Certification' for this also?

:yes::yeahthat:

I agree. He has handled my medicals and SI reports for the last four years. I have never felt more comfortable dealing with the FAA. It used to be a frustrating yearly event.

Wow, math really is hard. I'm okay with the outcome. I get.a physical every year from my PCP anyway. Every 4th year I will just bring the form along. It also save me the money spent on the yearly SI reports and tests, not to mention the down time waiting for the FAA to send the OK>

I didn't see a requirement to carry the checklist or the logbook, only to be available on request. Your logbook not, currently, required to be carried while flying.

I have reports, from my specialists, sent to my PCP. He is already up to speed when this is put into operation.

:) :) Looks like it is time for a re-read.

I agree.

You're right. I spent many years working the back of an ambulance and have no tolerance for the alcohol impaired. They were involved in most of the horrendous and disastrous incidents. Yes, you're still and "evil alcoholic danger". Its as much about decision making as it is functionality.

I didn't like wearing my CPAP when I first was diagnosed with OSA. After experiencing the benefits, I prefer using it. It's a game changer.
