So since I have been home BP is back to normal 123/70, I got a phone call from the Prime medical staff today telling me that while I am home I also need to go and see a Pulminologist, they looked over my sleep study and it said that I dont have sleep apnea but there was some abnormal rhythm that needs to be cleared before I can back. I am getting upset with this medical staff. I just passed a complete physical to go to Iraq, I am physically fit, I worked in Iraq doing PSD work, I am why healther than alot of the FAT truck drivers out there. All I want to do is drive, I just dont get Primes Medical staff? I also passed a DOT physical in Florida but Prime wont take it.

I hear ya that BMI is a kick in the nuts, i passed physical also in Indiana and after the drug test and all they said i need a sleep study. I understand why drinving a truck up to 80k pounds on public streets insurance reason, so its not just Prime, good luck to you.

Seems like every company could be different. I would hope Prime works out for you because of all my research -- and it's been extensive -- Prime offers far and away a MUCH better training program.
Also, Doctors can be real anal...so it may be just that. -
Went to see the Doctor today at the VA blood pressure was 127/78. I have to go and visit 2 more times and Dr will clear me to go back to Prime to finish Orientation. Dr said I dont have High Blood pressure and they probably used a small BP cuff when I require a large. Dr stated that a small BP cuff if used on a bigger arm will add 20 points to your BP, So in essents I was sent home because of the Nursing Staff not knowing to use a larger cuff. This to shall pass, I will be back and out on the road in a few weeks.
