    Just get a standard DOT physical. Some places only charge $75.00 such as CVS Pharmacy.
    After getting the physical hire on with a company that doesn't require another physical. Those companies will only do a drug test and maybe check your blood pressure. There's some good companies that don't require another physical such as Freymiller and some more names I can give you.

    Friend of mine weighed 315 lbs. and passed the DOT Physical with no problems and wasn't on a sleep apnea CPAP machine either. He does take blood pressure medication and Metformin for Type 2 diabetes, but that's not disqualifying.

    Thank you China town. I'm in good health but the doc said that because of my age I needed these test. I just don't see it.

    So if you broke an arm 30 years ago in the third grade that's somehow relevant to your ability to drive today?
