Don't assume anything for sure, until you sit down
and talk it over with an AME. He's the man, not only to acess your
situation relative to aviation, but also to suggest solutions.

You can talk to an AME, but DO NOT make an appointment for an FAA physical!

Listen to Capt Geoff on this one. I understand that the medical forms
(Forgot the number) are tightly controlled, so once you fill it out,
the process will begin. Best to find out what you are up against
before you start. Most AME's will be glad to help.

Another option is the AOPA - they have a medical department and can give you
some information on how likey you are to have problems.

Take anything AOPA says with a grain of salt. If I had a buck for
every piece of bad advise they have given people I know, I could go
out and buy an airplane.
