Does having a brain surgery DQ u??

I can't find anywhere in the FMCSR book that says having a brain surgery DQ u... So if anyone has any information that they can actually show me to look at I would greatly appreciate it.

 

Well Thank You to all of you that responded so quick!! @ Pedigreed Bulldog ~ it was too have 2 brain tumors removed that I didn't even know I had but doc says they been there for 7-10 yrs. but just starting giving me problems! I don't have any damage actually except my 7 nerve was slightly damaged which controls my taste buds and I have NO taste! I have been very lucky cause 99% of people who have these kind of tumors that I got end up with severe defects weather it is paralyzed, droopy face, completely deaf. I don't fall under that! I did speak to a DOT doc office but it was just a nurse and she said the same thing that a brain surgery doesn't DQ me but if I was to have side affects or seizures but you know I just wanted someone else's opinion out here in the trucking world!

 

Thank You Daddys Girl! My surgery went excellent! I had it October! I have been working out at the gym and making sure I am able to do things that can be involved with trucking from the things and experiences I have gone thru! I just have to keep an open mind and stay strong! My brain surgeon is so gun hoe on me getting back in the truck without a doubt and I am just not sure if he truly means it or is just saying it too keep me in good spirits so I will be waiting to see what the National Institute of Health says in May to determine what the next step is! So I am hoping between July and October to back into the truck!!! Again Thanks!

 

Thanks again! I was scared ########... Actually 2 days before surgery I called the doc to back out and he said if I didn't have the surgery the tumors could grow and cause me to be paralyzed or kill me. So I did it. I have not did any therapy! I just am trying to do things myself to keep me up and get me doing things cause depression is a #####. Trust me I tried to give up on life twice in 8 months!!! It is a hard pill to swallow when your independence is ripped from you.....
