No, Ron. Suppose you get a letter from the FAA asking you for an update
of... say... your diabetic situation, from your doctor. What do you think
will happen if you ignore the letter and try to wait until the special
issuance expires, so that you can then fly LSA aircraft with a DL? (This is
no different than not sending in the required medical reports needed to
renew the special issuance medical; that request is made when you get the
medical in the first place.)

Your original authorization will say "this authorization expires XXXX". The
letter will also tell you what to do (usually about 3 months before the expiration
of your auhtoriation) to renew it. What ever mental condition your special issuance
is for surely reads like this.
