Prime Orientation, What to expect?

I was a little higher then your bp, i stopped caffiene and added salt intake and now my bp is around 128/60 and of course bp pills will help a ton, good luck to you Fat Damon.

 

Hope you get it all taken care of and are back in the saddle soon.

 

What if your on BP medication? Can you get hired?

 

Yes. I'm on BP meds and my recruiter has assured me it's not a problem. The problem is untreated high BP!

 

Sure - just means you're going to get a one year card.

 

I have a medical card for my class B and it's two year, then again my DOT doc and my general practitioner is the same doctor.

That's good news!

 

Big difference? Prime uses their own docs to issue the med cards. It's gonna be a 1 year card.

 

That sucks Fat Damon! Another member on here had the same issue. Went home, got it controlled, came back 30 days later n now hes out on the road.

 

I can live with that, I just want to get out and drive.

 

It seems to me that when I was looking over the DOT physical requirements taking medication for high blood pressure automatically requires you to have your medical card renewed on a yearly basis. I am also being treated for high blood pressure thus the interest in the DOT requirements
