I had a stress test last summer, in anticipation of my medical (the FAA
has
requested I have one each of the last two times I've renewed. Which had
always kept me on the ground for about 3 months while they reviewed it.)

Anyway, my cardiologist, who is a pilot, had an intern with him at the
time. And
he explained to her that, as he sees it, the FAA's number 1 job is to
ground as
many pilots as they can. And they take their job VERY seriously.

BTW, I recieved a clean bill of health. Again. (Maybe now they'll stop
with the
stress test demands every two years.)

I have to agree with Bob here

someone I know personally was denied a medical
because he and his wife had gone to counseling
to see if they could save their marriage

(there was no physical abuse involved on either's part)

he was denied under that "any mental or emotional problem"
part of the med standards
