Renewing medical after lymphoma
I was recently diagnosed with a lymphoma in my lower GI tract and have had the malignancy removed and have begun a 4 round treatment of chemotherapy. Doctors are very optomistic that I will recover fully from this (praise God!) but I will still need to get recertified. Any ideas on how long that takes? My AME says I need to be free of the cancer and the effects of chemo for 6 months, yet AOPA could find no such requirement. In fact, I've heard of some airline pilots who flew between chemo treatments. How did they pull that off? Strong union? I have no such union protection where I work, although they have been very supportive of me and my family but still, I'll need my meal ticket back ASAP. Thanks in advance for any advice ya'll can offer.
