Not reporting anything certainly crossed my mind and I even had several pilots tell me the same thing. However, lying on a federal document weighted heavily on my mind so I chose the safe route even though it has and probably will cause a lot of head aches. But I am not dependent upon my medical right now for a paycheck so that decision was a little bit easier to make. The situation became more gloomy in regards to the Navy as I was denied a waiver a couple weeks ago and recommended to be grounded for another 12 months. The Navy required me to have this neuropsychological examination done and based off the results they determined that I am not fully recovered. This was a 4hr test that involved a lot of short term memory stuff and according to the results I am not up to par. The good thing is that the FAA does require this test so all I can do is hope for the best.
