MRO, reported script as positive, now what?

Yes I know, the here we go again I was clean B.S. I don't know anyone on the forum therefore I have no reason to lie.

I need Help, Here is my dilema;
I went to a trucking school pre emp so to speak, DOT Drug screen and physical to finalize acceptance and get Medical Card.

I do take prescription meds and they do show up. This is the first time I was not contacted by the MRO before reporting the results, and yes he reported positive. He was nice enough to list my medications one of which did not show up in the screen when he submitted the results to the school. Ummmm mistake maybe. After being notified by the school of the results They checked in to it and said it was Ok I had a legit script.

I contacted the Dr. and requested he correct the mistake, this took some convincing. Office personell finaly said the doc sent a letter. I assumed all was well.Little did I know all he did was send a letter stating what I busted for and that I showed him a prescription the day of the test. I found this out after applying at Weiner, telling them all my scripts, app going through medical review and being accepted. I was asked what day I wanted to come to orientation I asked if they could wait until I had my liscense to schedule, of course they said yes.

Now the catch,
I was extremely unhappy with the driver training I was receiving, so I tried respectfully to address the concerns with the course administrator over the phone. I found myself being rediculed, hollered, cussed and told what I was complaining about instead of asking. The conversation was completely one sided and I finally after asking them to not talk to me like that, hung up! Upon returning to the range the head instructor (she) called a £...ing meeting got in my face and was finally told by other students she was out of line and to step back. This was friday of the 3rd week, the same week that I had earlier on been accepted to Weiner.

Monday week 4 recieved notice from college I was accepted. Wednesday I called Weiner and was told my app had went back to medical and they could not use my app at this time. Hmmmm what happened?

Did my test results get put on DAC.
What info can they get from SSN screen?
Can they see or look up medical from some website or agency, if so what?
Am I missing something?

My criminal is spotless, no accidents ever! Work history spotty due to construction but always left a job being able to collect Unemployment.
I have ordered my DAC hopefully will gain some insight.

Sorry for the lengthy post but hopefully the details will help the community help, advise and comment on my situation as I don't know what to do.

Thanks in advance
Good luck to all and Be Safe

Sincerely

 

I could not agree more, the problem was they were not doing anything close to what was promised. I knew going in to the driving portion the administrator was going to fire our instructor after we got through. He told the entire class too many negatives about the guy. Stating he was an idiot, would not let him drive his personal truck, he sat in the passenger seat for a week with the last class and didn't say a word.

Out of three trucks a 95' & 97' pete, 05 freightshaker only one was close to roadworthy for 2 1\2 out of 3 weeks. We were supposed to get 65 hours driving. At the end of two weeks I had not even got close to twenty. They did not schedule our test dates in time and we were going to have to continue classes for an extra week. I would not have minded had it not been for $25 a day in fuel. Those are just the bigger irritants plenty of other safety and equipment issues.

I hope I didn't imply that I thought I would have a lengthy DAC, I was just curios if a school could reflect things on you DAC. Which brings me to another ? I assume they can tell them whatever they want over the phone. Not legally of course.

I do Thank yall for your responses, could you possibly elaborate on the role the MRO has in reporting to DAC (I did not think they had the right) The one in question here acted as if he had no idea what I was talking about concerning DAC.

Also how do they go about gathering your prior medical, is it through the names you provide or some Data-base.

Thanks again

I look forward to your insight

Thanks for your concern



Can you actually get a job while on meds that are in the tested categories?

I have letters from two Dr's stating my meds will in no way interfere with my ability to drive, operate, heavy, commercial, anything requiring CDL .

The sad part about the doc is no tellin how many people he has ruined because he told me, "you show me where it says I cant report it like that" I went and got the green book FMCSA and he says " everyone keeps telling me I cant you show me the law" So I did cfr 40.12?? Which says basicly an MRO must report any positive with a legitiment medical explanation or prescribed and under the care of a physician ( something like that) must be reported as a negative. Dr replies ok I will see what I can do to correct it but it is really up to the school. AMAZING!

Thanks Again

Be Safe
