Need my DOT physical, but have high BP when at the doctor.

Not likely if you're seeking shortcuts.
How to Get Rid of White Coat Syndrome: Causes and Risk Factors
Research also shows a possible link between sleep apnea and white coat syndrome. People with both problems had more difficulty falling asleep and longer periods of waking up in the middle of the night.

A diet high in sugar, fat, and salt and low in fiber and omega-3 fatty acids may also increase blood pressure.

 

You can't get a DOT Physical in Mexico.

 

Don't think that is a commercial crossing.
Not sure a rig would fit.
But you are correct about casino owned parking near the crossing. Saw many cars and RV's parked there and enough room for semi parking.

The town basically closes at 5pm but you can find dinner and drinks till around 9.
Make sure you have time to get back across.
They recently extended the closing time which was like 3 during the height if covid but in October went to 9.
If you ain't across you get to stay in a dive hotel

 

I’m surprised how many thanked this post.

Personally I hate Karen’s. You gonna call the manager too ?

Does being a snitch make you feel empowered ? Have you no other empowerment in your life.

And talking about trying to be getting a doctor into trouble based on a post on a truckers site.

That’s pathetic.

 

Whatever.

A doctor that rubber stamps should not be a doctor, and a driver that skirts the blood pressure requirements should not be driving.

Both are putting lives at risk.

 

You know what else is risky...
Getting up each day.

Lighten up Francis

The norm for DOT blood pressure WAS 160/90 for years & years & years UNTIL a few self serving super jock doctors took it upon themselves in the early 2k's to cut it in half & LOWER it to todays 139/89 thus (creating) 3 NEW HYPERTENSION CATAGORIES & 3 NEW DOT qualification levels of 2 yrs., 1 yr. & 3 months < ALWAYS REFUSE a 3 Month DOT & go elsewhere. WHY? Because they, along with the DOT KommieTards want fewer trucks on the road. The DOT took away a Drs. DESCRETION & patient confidentiality by compelling Drs. who do DOT exams to TAKE FEDERAL GUIDELINE CLASSES for a FEDERAL REGISTRY & abide by BS FEDERAL GUIDELINES now including NECK SIZE, sleep apnea.

 

When MOOSETEK13 FAILS his DOT someday due to stress or other life situations that create high bp, let's all remember to LOFA off.
