Past injury and the medical.

[IamCanadian]

Hey all, I couldn't find the answer to my question in the search function so I'm posting it here. I broke my hand about 2 years ago and had to have some surgery done on it, I was given painkillers but never used them. I have no problems at all with my hand, don't feel pain in cold weather or when it rains, it is almost as if it never happened except I have a scar from surgery.  I was wondering if this would require me to bring any additional documents to the CFRC, and if so, what to bring so I can bring it with my application. Thanks.

They will probably tell you to go get a note from your doctor saying there is nothin' to worry about.

  I was in a snowboarding accident when I was 13 and had to bring in a note saying my "bruised liver" had recovered fully and I was at no more risk than the general population.

  If you have the time, do it before-hand just in case.
