If you list high BP or BP medication on your DOT medical form&nbsp; you will get a 1 year DOT medical card. It doesn&#039;t matter if your BP numbers are good, BP meds = 1 year card. If you are not prescribed medications all the look at is the BP numbers. If anyone is borderline at the exam, proper procedure for testing BP is to have the patient sit quietly for 5 minutes, no talking, no activity. Then measure the BP. Most times the clinics like to measure your BP while you are talking, doing other things, etc. Insist on the 5 minute rest and quiet if you need it. It never hurts to mention white coat syndrome, the fear of a doctor taking away your income raises your BP briefly.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
