Default It's been almost 5 months since SI deferral

I know this topic has been beaten to death but I'm really going crazy! This past April 24th 2023, my First Class Medical was deferred for being on Xarelto, to treat my past episodes of pulmonary embolisms.

Application Submission Date:04/19/2023
AME Import Date:04/24/2023
Exam Date:04/24/2023
Exam Transmittal Date:04/24/2023

As per MedXPress, the FAA received all documentation they requested from me around 05/16/2023 and they scanned everything in and initiated the REVIEW PROCESS on 06/08/2023.

So it's been almost 5 calendar months since I was deferred and it's been exactly 69 BUSINESS DAYS since they started the review process. The MedXPress website says they strive to complete the review process within 60 business days but that has already passed.

Could this be wrapped up very soon or am I looking at months more of excruciating wait time? I know it's all on a case by case basis and so many variables, but man, this is torture. =(
