Default FAA Medical Question

You may be screwed either way. If you have your own physical and it finds
something, you're obligated to report it on the FAA medical application
form.

Yes, there is always the possibility that you will develop something that
will cause you to fail an FAA physical.

The point is if your personal physician finds it, you at least have a chance
to get it under control before you take a FAA physical and get yourself
denied.

And if you are denied, you can forget about even flying LSA.
