    Don't see why not, as long as you have normal function. Just don't volunteer any information on things they don't ask about.

    Just keep your mouth shut about it. Not like your going to crash cause you pissed your pants by mistake.

    Did you already have the transplant? If so, good luck!!!
     
    2duisperyear and Doon1971 Thank this.

    Congratulations on your transplant! I too also had a transplant but for my liver. I was wondering the same thing because I'm wanting to get my CDL. Wishing you good health.

    A good friend of mine has had a kidney transplant. He's been driving cranes ever since he got over the surgery.
    I don't know if he had to jump through any hoops but he's got a valid CDL and health card.
     
    Mictrucking Thanks this.
