FAA changes EKG paramaters?
#31
The wording of my SI states it must ve reevaluated when there is ANY change in cardiac standards.
But hey, you know more than AMAS, the specialist AME I have to see or my cardiologist who is also an AME.
Or the FAA regional flight surgeon.
Let me tell them all that some Jabroni on APC said I dont have to do anything.
I'm sure that will get me back to work with a valid medical faster than doing what AMAD, my AME and the FAA want/require.

And as expected, certified letter from OKC today, saying yes, I do have to re-do a bunch of painful testing. And spend $10k plus. And be out of work for months.
I guess I should reply "John Burke on APC says this shouldn't happen " and see where they go with it.

Sorry you have to deal with this. Just curious what’s the condition requiring all the retesting? I know several people on cardiac related SI and no one has heard a peep about needing additional info.

Myocarditis/ MI combo meal at 23 due to reaction to Anthrax vaccine. Totally normal EKG before, abnormal since. SI was worded "any change in standards" triggering renewal. Had been since a couple years of EKG being abnormal but stable, as long as my EKG was "new normal" I required no further testing but akso had done restrictions on drugs I could take, BP/Resting HR had to stay normal etc.
