Filing Flight Plan
I just went to get my medical done the other day and everything was fine except that my BP was elevated. It was above 155/90. I have an appointment with my PCP next week to see what I can do about this problem. I know that I have to get this under control for my health as well as to continue towards my PPL.
The AME deferred my application to the FAA and gave me some idea about what to expect. My question is, how long does it take for the FAA to respond to a deferment? Other than getting the BP under control what might the FAA want me to do for a positive outcome to the deferment?
Also I have about 9 hours in the logbook and in my opinion I'm maybe half way to solo, maybe longer. Any suggestions on weither I should continue with the lessons or put things on hold until I get this issue resolved? I plan on talking to my instructor tomorrow and see what he thinks about it. I'm just making sure I have thought of all my options. Thanks, Karl
