    My brother had testicular cancer and they took one out. Doesn't bother a thing other than you lay on the porch more.
    Be honest on your physical since you have medical records on this. Say you have an accident, the lawyers will dig it up and use it against you if you hide it.

    You'll be fine. :biggrin_25525:

    Most of the dot physicals i ever had, they made me drop my pants and cough.

    One doc told me that if they make you cough its because theyre incompetent and shouldnt be docs. LOL.....that was the doc werner uses at indy...

    Thanks for that. :biggrin_2556: I am comfortable with it. I have had many awesome jokes like that......again thank all of you for your replies. I feel so much better, with the general concencus that I will pass. Other than that I am a very healthy 21 year old trying to get in the business.

    Some of these companies it might be a problem tho. Some of them want to charge you a left nut for everything. I suppose if you still have the left one you will be OK....:biggrin_25523:

    I never asked a driver to drop them, turn your head and cough. You'll be fine.

    Oh man, 21 years old and having those kinds of problems is NOT something to joke about. But I'm glad you have a sense of humor.

    This shouldn't impact your DOT physical at all. Look at all the female drivers out there!

    Good luck on your driving career.
