Aircrew and Gilbert's Syndrome
Hi All,
Has anyone experienced, or heard of, aircrew candidates with Gilbert's syndrome getting med-class 1?
My blood tests for the medical came back normal but with a slightly elevevated level of bilirubin (by-product of bile production in the liver). The DFR Dr thinks it could be Gilbert's Syndrome - it's harmless and doesnt require any medical treatment or care. She hasn't indicated its impact on my application but wants the GP to confirm it.
They are still letting me attend the OSB so it doesn't appear to be a major issue at this stage.
Doing my research the USAF has no issue with Gilbert's syndrome in aircrew and the RAF don't have an issue for serving members (no info on recruits), but I can't find anything for the ADF's view.
I know none of us are DFR Drs so I'm not looking for guarantees etc, but perhaps someone out there has had a similar experience.
Thanks,
Rooster.
