    You are allowed to seek another opinion, as long as you put the same thing down on the new form.

    I know I can get a 2nd opinion but the new job won't accept it and let me drive I have to use their Dr! This is a load of crap! If these rules allow for someone to be put in this situation they need to be changed! I can't be helped but maybe the next guy won't have to go through what I'm going through. I drove just fine for 6 years 0 incidents now because my neck measures 17 inches I'm to dangerous to drive? Come on this is just stupid!

    If it is the company dr. and that job is so great you can't find a way to make it happen. Or go to a different company. How exactly will this make you to be foreclosed on?

    I'm in the middle of know where the companies willing to hire here are limited. True I can go to some other Dr and apply to other companies but it could be just as fast to do the study if I pass I'm right back to work. It's if I fail that it becomes a problem I'm already behind on bills because I was making garbage wages. I only came on here to make this issue known and get some advice about how to move forward and maybe find out if there was a group I could report this to as its not right

    Just curious because it takes a long drawn out process for foreclosure so get a small loan from somewhere do the test and you are back at work.

    That's the new reality. These doctors are arbitrarily sabotaging a driver's livelihood if their stupid chart says he's a sleep apnea risk. How overweight are you? If you have a month and follow my diet you'll easily lose twenty pounds.
