Worst case, cancer can spread to other parts of the body and cause sudden incapacitation. The FAA wants two things before you can return to work:
- All weakness or impairment caused by the disease or it's treatment to be resolved.
- A pretty good chance that you are not going to have a recurrence, which might go undetected long enough to cause sudden incapacitation.
Best of Luck
