Ulcerative Colitis

Is ulcerative colitis a disqualifying medical condition for ATC? I do not take medication, rather I control it through diet and exercise. I have not had a flare up in over five years controlling it this way.

Ususally it is, but a waiver can be granted on a case by case basis. Talk to your AME.
