I don't see that in the info provided. I'm not a lawyer, but I'm also not a moderator, so I feel comfortable answering. The law as described above requires a doctor to provide the valid statement or certification. There is no clause allowing for self-diagnosis. However, as long as you have a valid doctor's recommendation, you can get by without a valid registry ID card.
It also looks like, if one was arrested and has charges pending on 12/4/08, that person may get a doctor's certification retroactively that will allow him to benefit from the new law (possibly avoiding a conviction) - but the info there isn't clear to me.
