I've used a CPAP machine for several years, since a few years before I started learning to fly. It's well-controlled and no issues, my sleep doc concurs, etc.
But -- due to some pretty bad advice, I didn't disclose it when I got my first medical. I want to, and as far as the condition goes I'm confident the therapy and my compliance is good (wakefullness and everything). But of course, the non-disclosure is a problem.
Hopefully Dr. Bruce or someone else will have some helpful direction. I know the decision was wrong, and it's completely out of sorts for me to do something like that, but I can't take back the past decision. I've been beating myself up pretty good about it for a while. I just need to figure out what to do next to properly disclose, and hopefully still satisfy the FAA and their requirements.
Thanks.
