Forgot to mention on HOW I failed medical.


My BP reading was elevated, but my PR was only 52. Even tho this was a 2nd class my AME listened to my heart and said he heard an Murmmer and decided to run a EKG. The EKG was not "part of the medical" this was something seperate, but the EKG showed I was def having some sort of cardiac issue. First question my AME asked was if I have had the vaccine recently. Yes the "booster" and he just shook his head and let out an old man sigh. He sat down and we chatted and he made me aware of multiple people in his practice that have had a wide array of new issues popping up that were medically disqualifying, some as young as 19.
AME couldn't legally issue after results so got deferral, and subsequent OKC sent me the letter.


Followup Cardiologist appointment and testing which included the Cardiac MRI showed the myocarditis. 


the entire time i was not feeling bad, sick, etc...just a little tired. So all of this caught me off guard.
