My Blood Pressure was 155/100 today... so close! There were a crap ton of people in for drug screening and physicals today and im sure thats why my BP was a little bit high. I had to wait around 2 hours to take a leak into the cup. Have met a ton of great people here, I go back in the morning to get my BP checked again.
Also my BMI is at 40.1, so I need to have a sleep study thursday morning.
It was hecktic today with all the potential drivers having to have medical crap all taken care of!
I got to play on the simulator today and what an experience!
Everyone here so far with prime has been very nice, even the lunch ladies! haha
I am going to drink a crap ton of water to flush my system out tonight so I can pass my high BP in the morning. As of last friday it was 117/70, so I was SHOCKED today it was so high. I went to the cafeteria afterwards and witnessed a prime driver eat two cheeseburgers and a plate full of fries and they are worried about me??? haha
Techman... hope you get your issues taken care of. I still want to meet up sometime. -
Hope you get things straightened out so you can hit the road for the long haul..

I'm figuring Sept 25 as my next start date after I get cleared by medical. The good thing is that I won't have to start over just a pee test.
-
Is there any particular reason you was told that you needed to have a cpap/cpac machine before you could start? Wondering if I should see my doctor before I leave in a couple weeks to make sure i wont need one or is the need for one due to medical issues I might not have.

Sleep apnea is a safety issue, so if you fit the profile and are undiagnosed you'll be getting tested. Unless your present insurance will cover the test and machine 100%, I'd wait and get it done at Prime. It's expensive, there's requirements the CPAP machine must meet, and you may not even need it.
-
Told ya you was gonna be sent home. Well good luck to you.

Hey techman I'll be there the 25th!!
