Default Medical running out?

Call out the OKC to the medical office. Depending on your situation they
can fax you an extension if possible or if done in time the actual
medical. I have not had AME problems but several times the timing and the
back log messed things up. The gals in the office were very helpful. Good
luck!

I did (fortunatly) keep copies of everything and FAXed them directly to
the FAA doctor that asked for them, then called his office to confirm
they got it. Tuesday I will follow up to make sure it is all they
needed and or is clear enough.
The reason I suspect my ME is because one of the issues was LASIK
surgery. I had the surgeon fill out the required FAA report but when I
gave it to my ME he said it was for them to keep in their files (this
seemed strange to me but I assumed they knew what they were talking
about). The FAA sent me another blank eye form. I am guessing that the
original was still "on file" at my ME's office.
