Can I Get A Cdl With Kidney Disease

So, I merely spent the past calendar week in the hospital, come to notice out I have Bleary Nephropathy — UNC Kidney Heart and Nephrotic Syndrome. I am currently on steroids for it, and various other medications. Doctors say my condition is nothing to joke virtually, if its not treated and maintained, it can lead to failure/dialisys/transplant/death.
My question is

What will happen to my CDL? I take a local gig at present, will I have to requite it up and discover something else?

Pretty sure you have to inquire a CDL issuing doctor that question. Sounds like you got information technology treated and maintained?
Drinkable nothing but distilled water until you pee clear three times a twenty-four hour period, mayhap it will clear up. Iii twenty-four hour period fasting can trigger body stem cell healing of organs, nosotros don't understand why.

Stay abroad from free refills at soda fountains, that water filter may exist really old. Get amend soon!
No, its not maintained or treated. I have to see the specialist tomorrow.
Luck to you, fellow.
My brother has 1 left. He's drinking that one into cirrhosis. The other was ruptured and lost jumping from i ice floe to another (a bad edge & slip landing).... I'd say he was younger and dumber.... only he's even so dumb, and so just the beginning part carries whatsoever credibility.

Take intendance of yourself. Hard to practise, I know... quirky little caveat about existence human being: confirmation biases & active information avoidance... we seek what fits our calendar and ignore that which doesn't... Passively engaging in our own, oft untimely, demise.

Farewell! And do inquire a CDL issuing Physician what the terms and conditions are. I'd imagine with proper treatment y'all might get a 1-year.... but I'one thousand not a Dr. and there are to many variables to consider.

Not sure what is wrong with your kidney. I was told that a high level of protein in the urin would keep you lot from getting a medical card. Not sure why, await it could lead to diabetes. I merely have one kidney and my mother has a 1/4 of one. She told me to make certain I move around as much equally possible. Sitting all the time isn't good for the kidney. And so I plan on drinking water. Didn't know it needed to be distilled water. I likewise drink cranberry juice. 100% cranberry juice. I call up it's nasty but keeping my kidney healthy is worth it.
Call back, you lot accept Iv Tiers to choose from when Self Certifying at the Revenuer's Function (DMV) Tier one is for those with a nice long form, short form, curt fourth dimension, long fourth dimension Valid Medical to go with the Valid CDL.
Tier 2 is for the grandfathering of those non holding a medical carte du jour. It is however a reserves stockpile of drivers easily federalized to haul mourtary in case of postal service-nuclear assail or Yellowstone etc, anywhere in the USA at whatsoever time.

Tiers iii and four then on are for other things Trucking. Practise a picayune googling. It does non hurt whatever. Enjoy!

Every bit far as your Kidney... I volition recommend to you that Life itself provided for long enough volition lead to death etc. It'due south all in how you live it each day that is given to y'all.

I hope that your days pass in peace and joy. Not that hard ### grumpy sourpuss all dried out and in need of those fancy dyasislis machines to wring out the meanness.

have a dandy day Sir, And proficient luck to you too. I dont see annihilation prohibiting you from driving a big truck.
nothing should happen to your CDL. if y'all accept a valid wellness card now, it is yours till the next renewal.
i'd say, go and see what your doctor says. peradventure a regimen of meds and fluids will either cure or at the very least clear upwards what is going on. i am non a doctor, and neither are the other 27,000 people here so all we will have is opinions. only at the next DOT concrete if you pee clean with no proteins then you may be good for another two year card. i think (but tin't swear to it) if you pee out proteins, they will doubtable you lot as being a diabetic, then yous will have to become thru whatever process to go past that scenario.

personally, i'd only drink clear fluids like water (possibly bottled) and accept your specialists advice, in fact he (or she) may very well tell you your time to come as a driver better than any of united states of america.

skilful luck, keep u.s.a. up to engagement!
If anything it'southward going to be that blood pressure that will boom y'all to the cross. If you do non stress in life, and maintain good fluids in your body without whatsoever sort of withdrawl symptoms from drugs etc (Lawful drugs possibly hurting medicine etc) should prevent losing control of your blood force per unit area.
If I come up off my medicine, in most 50 hours or on day iii come up morn when I exercise my ain BP readings, I come up with about a 210 over 130 which is a genuine stroke run a risk Or even a clot that tin can kill you or worse. 40 minutes with the next new dose of medicine and it falls correct back into 125 over 76 where it has to exist ever.

Sorry to only get to this, I've been tied upwardly. I renewed my med card in March of 2017, 4 months after my kidney surgery. CDL Dr. looked at my notes, I had a copy of some paperwork from my surgeon and my family dr. about my surgery, the diagnosis, and prognosis, said cipher more. He had more than concerns well-nigh my claret pressure level and diabetes than anything else.
The truth is, listen to the Dr's, do what they say, you'll beat this.
