I was taken to hospital about 3 years ago with a suspected heart attack. An angiogram was carried out and they found my heart to be in near perfect condition.

It took me 9 weeks to get my medical back, even though multiple tests proved there was nothing wrong, but something that did come to my attention during this period of non-flying was that there are plenty of pilots out there with medical problems but they're not telling anyone, because the civil servants make your life hell and it's outrageously expensive trying to regain your medical.
