Oh jeez cleared,
mate its just a bad joke. I have a heart problem, way back when, first ATPL medical.....Shock horror....your going to die...ECG shows anomalies.
A few bucks later, no problem you have a congenital clicky valve, no problem.

Twenty years later...shock horror...your going to die...your ECG shows anomalies!
Fear of christ???..sh..t I've got a crook heart!!.

Ten grand later......there's nothing wrong with your heart, you have a congenital defect which creates an echo on your ECG.

Nope your going to die...specialist says I'm not...we say you are....

Another ten grand...up to an angiogram which the specialist refused to conduct because as he said this is risky and I refuse to do it on a perfectly healthy person.

A letter to CAsA from my specialist suggesting that whoever saw an anomaly in my ECG should perhaps go back to med school...got my medical back!! Hooray!!

The twenty grand pissed up against the wall would have gone nicely towards my kids Uni Fees but.
