Ask Rush Limbaugh about medical privacy.

If there is an accident and the FAA begins an investigation
and that investigation raises a medical condition, then the
FAA would probably seek your medical records. Unless you
have signed a release, the private companies should not
divulge your records beyond strict limits. But you may have
signed some release or you may find that your insurance
company will be sharing financial amounts with other
insurance companies, but not "private" medical info. But
what the FAA can determine, combined with a forensic lab
test is just a guess.
