This brings up the question of why such a restriction would be placed on a medical certificate, unless that is the term of a special-issuance; if so then that raises the question of what for, and the applicability to the mishap.
That said, as a first or third class, without that unusual non-standard limitation, a medical issued in May of 2021 to a pilot over 40, is valid for 24 months, and would still be valid.
It would appear there are additional questions to answer.
Provo is on a lake, and has a large duck population nearby, summer and winter. Bird strikes on the runway there are not at all uncommon.
You indicated three type ratings, and suggested "likely since May, 2021." Why?
Ducks, have you ever seen the clouds of mosquitos there? That had me locking up all the hatches once I realized what was happening.
