You're only required to report what you remember.

If you can cite the rule that says you only have to report what you
remember, sure would save me a lot of trouble.

The bottom of the form says, "... are true to the best of my knowledge..."

Right. If the FAA wanted our medical reporting to be more rigorous, they
could require us to keep a running log of reportable medical events, just as
we're required to log e.g. sufficient flight experience for currency, rather
than just relying on memory if challenged. But we're not required to keep
such a medical log (though of course we can if we want to).

Obviously, we could not credibly claim to have forgotten recent major
developments, if later questioned about them. But it's certainly plausible
to forget about an early-childhood heart murmur.
