Medical exemption

Just got out of hospital after 3 days. Suspected pneumonia, but only acute bronchitis which triggered asthma which I didn't even know I had! Going to be on more steroids and drugs for the next few weeks than Lance Armstrong! Now how do I apply for a UCI medical exemption certificate?  3

You don't, you find a doctor who 'knows' whats on the UCI banned list and who can 'advise and treat accordingly'!  3

some conditions cannot be treated outside the UCI banned list meds,
there are not many asthma meds that are not on the list, you only have to apply for an exemption if you race ( either pro or amature,) I is unlikiy that for sportives or charity rides that there would be any dopeing testing, however if it does happen then you can apply retrospectivly
