    I have read that klonopin causes a delay in reaction time but this is ridiculous.

    You had better not be taking Klonopin because of seizures and have a clinical history of seizures! Klonopin is probably outside of Keppra (levetiracetam) one of the most prescribed epilepsy meds in use today(I take Keppra and have a history of taking Klonopin.). The DOT EXPRESSLY PROHIBITS its use for seizures.

    I guess a 10 year delay in messaging might be related to medication.

    I love the title of this thread. Can I lie on a DOT physical? Of course, you can lie! It's interesting this thread got bumped up though. Someone I have known since childhood recently had a stroke and is in a Nursing Home today. Blood pressure was out of control, he smoked like a smoke stack and drank alcohol all the time. Come physical time (yes he was a truck driver) he would stop for a while and lie on the physical. Always said his CDL and driving was his livelihood. Now it's caught up to him. His wife just let her car go back and they are behind on other things. Go ahead and lie! It's your life, have a medical issue because of this and kill or maim, rest assured there are hundreds if not thousands of Attornies that have lawsuits already filled out all they need do is fill in names!
