I think there are interests also to sale the bloodpressure medication. When I go to the medical inspection. The messuring of the blood pressure happens mostly imidetly after sitting down and they push me to the medication. At the normal messuring all is super fine. I think for the 2 year DOT physical the blood pressure limits are reduced now also. I think it is not wanted that some people don*t take any medication.

Attention Mods:
When I type 'Blood Pressure " into a search, this thread does not automatically come up. My only beef about TTR. Many lives being lost for lack of knowledge .
The part on the video about a full bladder affecting blood pressure is TRUE. Truckers should not allow themselves into being duped into taking a blood pressure test unless they have an empty bladder. Decline, even if it means an extra hour of drinking water for your urinalysis test.kutscher Thanks this. -
