    Driver with several years over-dimensional experience, spotless mvr, no criminal record, been out of trucking for about 15 years and had a lumbar fusion in 2018. I have been cleared by my surgeon and given his blessing to go back into driving. I realize I may have to start at the bottom again and work my way up but I'm only 49 and know I can do the job still. If anyone knows of any companies that aren't bothered by the back fusion I would love to know who to talk to... Thanks in advance for any help or advice!

    I guess back surgery really is the death penalty for a truck driver...
