That stress test is really important in case you fly a very long airplane where you may be jogging in the ailse. I wonder how Sir Douglas Bader did on his treadmill test?
Had a consultation with the Aeromed Dr. today, took the paper work he requested and after looking it over, he wanted more paper work. Ok, that's not a problem, I can get that, well, my wife handles all our paper work so she'll get it. I could probably get it to him next week but my wife is leaving for Colorado tomorrow and won't be back for 8 days. Just in time to throw her mom an 80th birthday party and a few days before my knee replacement surgery. Thank God she isn't old like me, gotta love that woman ! Crap, forgot to tell the Dr. I'm blind in one eye, maybe I can fake it on the eye exam! LOL

Got the rest of the paper work the Aeromed Dr. requested but I'm holding off on another appointment until I get off these pain meds to make sure I pass the drug test. Today is 3 weeks since my knee replacement surgery and so far it all looks good. I figure another month and all drugs should be out of my system.

I’ve never gotten a drug test in conjunction with an FAA medical. Got plenty of them at work tho.....
Marty, I used to work a lot of Nuke jobs, 2 or 3 outages a year and would always take an initial drug screen for pre employment and usually 2 or 3 random test while the job was going on. Also, a complete background check each time. As far as the FAA drug screen, I'm going to the same Dr. as my flying buddy and he said he had the drug screen on his last physical so I just want to be on the safe side.
