The Doctor is in! Ask a Flight Surgeon!

[FormerRecruitingGuru]

Might not be the correct place to post this, but I'm sort of at a loss. I ended up getting a waiver for endometriosis (which was never officially diagnosed... unfortunate medication description landed me the waiver) and it got approved. My recruiter obviously cant answer this question, but I do just want to know if this will cause issues with the flight surgeon as I'm going towards SNA ? I've read & heard a lot of conflicting information so if anyone has any insight on this it would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance to those who answer !

Does the NAMI guide say anything about it? You might have to “dumb” down the condition if you can’t find the specifics.

".....Mild endometriosis, which requires only mild analgesia and hormonal contraceptives, is considered for waiver with evidence of persistent pain control and medication tolerance....."


I wouldnt be worried as long as its managed regardless of a prior offical diagnosis or not. Had a friend mid flight school need a full hystorectomy due to severe endo that became unbearable regardless of medication.
