Message:: [QUOTE="Stewartb, post: 3029710, member: 23590"]Funny you say that. I have a permanent pacemaker. One of the attributes of a pacer is it provides the doctor a 24/7/365 EKG when the data is downloaded, which in my case is quarterly. During one cardiologist visit the doc mentioned I had a high heart rate event. I knew the date and time and told her. She asked what I was doing. I had been driving the 4 hours from daughter's house to mine after three cups of coffee with breakfast, a tall Starbucks latte along the way, followed by a big Dr Pepper a little later. That was the day I was told to switch to decaf. Never any danger. Easily explained because I had accounting of date and time. Watch that caffeine! BasicMed is a blessing for guys like me with minor cardiac treatments. My AME laughs that my heart is studied and maintained while the vast majority of you have no idea what your true cardiac condition is, yet I had to navigate the SI process like I was a ticking time bomb. That's far from the truth. FAA aeromed serves a purpose, but it shouldn't apply to private pilots. BasicMed isn't perfect but it's the best solution we have now. C'mon expansion of LSA![/QUOTE]

It is very likely that it does not need any further discussion and thus bumping it serves no purpose. If you feel it is necessary to make a new reply, you can still do so though.

I am aware that this thread is rather old but I still want to make a reply.
