Hello there!

I’m so sorry to hear that! Yes, person with diabetes can have difficulty meeting the medical requirements to become a pilot. It is because of safety concerns that are related to managing sugar levels during your flight.

Since you said that it is under control, you may contact an aviation medical examiner if you can get a special issuance certificate. https://www.faa.gov/pilots/amelocator

Thank you!
