Don't rely on your FAA Medical as a statement of good health. If you are serious about your health make sure you have "other" checkups as well independent of your FAA protocol. There are many walking time bombs out there and the FAA medical protocol is not designed to catch them before they explode. FAA medicals are not preventive medical check-ups. Cardiac issues, diabetes can remain undiagnosed for many years under current FAA protocols.
