Hyperthyroidism

Bob the Doc,

Thanks for your reply.
What happened to me is next: I had operation of Thyroid gland in March 2005, and then after operation for some 1,5 year the rest of my gland (2nd half) was doing just fine, without any medications. But then (I guess as a result of really stressfull situations that i had some 8-9 months ago), my thyroid didn't work so fine anymore, so my lever of hormones was less then normal, and I started taking medications. Now my hormon level is ok, but I still take half of medication every morning, and I don't have any side effects (and I see my doctor on regula basis, very 2 months)
So, is it alowed for Cabin Crew to take medication (to keep the lever of hormones normall) or is any kind of medication a big no-no for Emirates?
Thanks
