I sure hope you are doing that under the
supervision of a Dr.
Just got bad news this week.
Six months
after sending in my packet, the FAA rejected my request for a
special
issuance because I take insulin and Rezulin concurrently. They
didn't say
why this is objectionable.
Now I've just stopped the insulin and I'm
trying to make up the
difference in more exercise and even better diet.
But it'll probably be
another six months before I can submit another
packet. <sigh> <BIG SIGH>
Sure wish I'd done things
better years ago.
