[QUOTE="jmarc77, post: 11679496, member: 323108"]I am hypothetically getting ready to obtain my medical card and cdl learners permit. Hypothetically I have a history of depression, but it is and has been well controlled for a long time on a few medications from which I experience zero side effects. One of those medications is also used as an anti-seizure medication, but I have never had a seizure and that is not why I am taking it. If I have a note from the prescribing doctor that lists my diagnoses and the medications, would this hypothetically be a problem with either the medical examiner or a potential employer? I am otherwise completely healthy. I have no issues with blood pressure, heart problems, I have good vision and hearing, I don't drink or smoke.[/QUOTE]
