Remember, according to the regs, if you have an illness that stops you for flying for 7 days or more for a Class 1 (30 days for a class 2) [CASA 2015], then you are supposed to go to your DAME before you fly again to get the OK to fly. So that flu you had last week that kept took you down for a week, you had better had seen a DAME before you took the stick in your hands again, or you just contravened a CASA regulation. Hold a Class 2 and broke your hand or leg, then better see your DAME before you fly again.
