Does a special issuance show up on the airman's registry web site?

I am paraplegic and colorblind; got myself a SODA for the former,
and a letter from FAA saying that I successfully passed an alternative
test (light gun test) for the latter; neither show on the
airman's registry web site, the only thing that shows is that I
need to wear corrective lenses (yeah, I am also short sighted :-)))

But you use your waiver and get a new medical when the expiration date
arrives... correct?

I show the paper work to the AME every time I renew, that's the
only difference, i.e., I do renew like everybody else, and
there is no restriction on my medical (other than having
to wear corrective lenses); the point I was trying to make
was that the public records on the FAA website doesn't tell
the whole story.
