I was born with hearing loss on both ears. I'm 52 year old I don't think I'll pass the hearing test.

I had a heart attack 12 years ago and am now doing fine. I am on blood pressure medication and I have to take a stress test every other year. My blood pressure is fine until I get in that room and it elevates. But end up relaxing enough to pass. When I get home, I take my blood pressure machine and take my blood pressure and it always falls back down to good numbers. Too bad you can't make house calls to do this!! Thanks Doc, I have subbed liked and rang the bell!!

I’m a cdl holder with a dot expires in june. I’m not currently driving commercially & haven’t since the surgery. I have returned driving personal vehicle.

I had a t10 laminectomy last August in Iowa. I did 3 weeks rehab in Omaha, Ne. Then I moved to Az w/family.

I continued physical therapy for “dead butt” syndrome.

Ok, I’m recovered/ing. I run, I pass mock exams & get a clear Babinski reflex. So I want to go back to work which means I need to get a DOT exam.

My problem is the surgeon won’t release me, he hasn’t seen me since sept. I can’t get into my neurologist until a June appt & my next pcp is late march. My physical therapist is the only one who sees me regularly but she doesn’t believe a return to work letter from her carries any weight with a DOT exam.

Any advice about this?

Also, I’m curious what questions or scrutiny can I prepare for? What docs should I take with me? I’m also a bit nervous I could lose my cdl entirely. Any feedback is appreciated.

I doubt you'll see this comment and respond but I've got a question When do you decide to measure your patient's neck? I don't remember the doctor measuring my neck my first exam but they did on my second I'm now having to go in next month and I'm afaird my neck is over the allowed amount at 17 and a half inches does that disqualify me to get my physical or what's the next steps?

I have foot drop but in the left foot. I operate my vehicle with my right foot. Drop foot doesn’t hinder me from anything. I work at a warehouse unloading trucks no accommodations. Will I pass the DOT physical?

I have nerve damage in my right foot. I can move my foot, but there's weakness when lifting up and i can't articulate my toes. Would this be disqualifying?

If I can pass the US MEPS physical for the USAF I sure can pass the US DOT physical.

If it is 180/100 range, and that person cannot be certified in your office, is that person then entered a nationwide system? 10:40

Hi doc. My doctor prescribes me Cyclobenzaprine to take at night if needed as a muscle relaxer, and Pregabalin as a nerve blocker, I have no history of seizures and was only prescribed the Pregabalin for my nerve pain, Pregabalin doesn't make me intoxicated in any way. Is this an automatic disqualification? or could I possibly get a note from my doctor? Thank you

Is it true PPI meds will make you test positive for THC for drug test.

There is a job in my town. I’m looking at that wants a DOT physical with a back x-ray. I’m not really finding any information on YouTube or the Internet. I’m guessing it will all be up to the discretion of the doctor?
