Disqualified by Schneider for headaches
#11
Thank you Uturn! Makes me feel better.
Guess I learned something new today! (like most days) I honestly didn't think headaches were such a big deal, especially since I know there is nothing wrong. I just keep seeing people say not to lie about anything because they will find out. There are medical records indicating the tests I've had done AND that there is NOTHING wrong neurologically! Seems to me they should look at it that way, I have been tested and approved :wink: but she cut me off before I could even mention that! :evil:

Same thing happened to me with Schneider. I have a migraine condition history and after getting the prehire and approved to head off to school I got transferred to the "Nurse" and then got disqualified.
First off, the "Nurse" couldn't even figure out what I was talking about but was sure she had to disqualify me. My wife is a nurse and laughed like an idiot when I relayed the conversation. I was very ticked off and felt my whole plans just got destroyed until I verified through FMCSA regs that I was good to go with no problems. I said to heck with them, went to school on my own dime and have been driving ever since with 5 (long story) full DOT physicals passed without incident. Keep looking, your company is out there somewhere.

You know, everybody gets a headache once and a while. If you were getting them daily, then I would understand why they disqualified you. Daily headaches are a sign of something going wrong within the body, or that your married. :lol: (if you only knew my wife..... :lol: )
Either way, you need to take care of yourself, and it wouldn't hurt to consult a doctor for some blood work. Just a thought. :wink:

Yup, eyes are fine. Prescription hasn't changed in the last few years except the addition of bifocals this year.

just a word of advice..... NEVER never offer up information. honesty isnt always the best policy... usually being honest just gets you screwed. If you can take medication that takes care of an issue.... please don't volunteer info...... Like when someone says the truth will set you free, Bullshit... the truth will get ur neck in a noose.
