Big T's right.  I also have farmer friends that sat on tractors for as long as I flew (30 + years)  they have back problems too.  The one long term helo (SHIP) pilots should look out for is A-Fib .  There is increasing evidence that certain harmonics in a helicopter (Turbine engines) could possibly react with the electrical signals in the heart.  ( remember the old N1 no flight idle zone ).
