| So here's the deal. I recently accepted a position with a company that has drug testing and I smoke, daily. No Big Deal. I used the Quick Fix 4.0 and was given results of being clean in minutes from providing the sample to a mobile lab technician. So I am working, smoking, and carrying on back in the comfort of the norm. Well. I got a new job offer today, paying 40K more in salary a year. Problem is, I have to do a DOT physical, and will need to sub Quick FIx in order to be clean. I have been treating myself kindly since passing the original test for the first company. The question I have is this. Does anyone know, truly know what a DOT physical is all about? Will they watch me? Do they run any other kinds of testing? ie; blood pressure, cholesteral? Any information would be much appreciated as this means I will literally be doubling my salary. Thank you in advance. Sin |

| Within the past month I posted the website that gives the exact procedure for a DOT Physical from the regulations. Do a search and you can find it. |

| Use the Quick Fix for the DOT test, you will have no problems. The physical is just that a physical they check for health problems and related issues

| Hawg, the physical is quite thorough and involves a rectal and hernia exam. Also, it is supposed to be done PRIOR to drug testing. There MIGHT be a problem with a substitution. That is why I told him/her to look up the link. Now I am at work and will post the link again. http://www.fmcsa.dot.gov/rules-regulations/administration/fmcsr/fmcsrruletext.asp?rule_toc=760§ion=391.43§ ion_toc=1782&guidence=Y This is the link to the guidance portion of the regulations. Please read Questions 2 and 7 and their answers. This is the actual regulation regarding DOT physicals: http://www.fmcsa.dot.gov/rules-regulations/administration/fmcsr/fmcsrruletext.asp?rule_toc=760§ion=391.43§ ion_toc=1782 |

| Is there a difference between a class A, B, or C license? I wont actually be a driver. I am going to be a General Manager of a logistics company. I would still think that I can take in the Quick Fix and leave it in my clothing and then when I am done with the exam, I can dress and do the UA and sub. Isn't it all about keeping the temp. right? I can't imagine that I would have to sit in my paper gown in a room until I had to pee. Is that possible? It could be awhile. Especially if I ask to go when I arrive then I do even if they wont take the sample. What about the STRIPnc Natural Cleanser? Am I better off diluting or masking if I have to give my own sample? I would much rather sub. knowing that it works 100%. How can I do this with the assurance that I can pass???????????? Sin |

The quick fix has a bottle and a heating pad...it does not always have to be next to your body. | |

While in the waiting room, you could sneak the QF from your coat pocket and use it for the drug test after waiting a reasonable amount of time. If they do all this according to regulation, this should work. Big IF. I would also use the dilution method as best as you can although it would be tough with your bladder that full during the rectal exam. BTW, there is no difference in the physical exam. If you are a GM, you direct and supervise the drivers. You also act as dispatcher, and are subject to the same regulation. Good luck. | |

. It depends on the employer on how the routine is done also. Best advice I can give is prepare for the dillution method and the sub method so you will have a few options. | |

| Thanks Hawg and Sec3. Freat advise. Much appreciated. I will prepare for both, cross the fingers without holding my breathe the best I am able. I did speak with my POTENTIAL employer and it appears as though I have to be in the Kirkland Corporate office Monday the 3rd at 10:00 to fill out new hire paperwork. Then I will be catching a flight at 6:00 to Boise for two weeks for some training. I am actually thinking, and hoping, that because of time, and the fact that I have a pre-existing appoinment in the afternoon to drop my truck off at the shop 2 hours from the corporate office and then scream back up to the airport an hour away, that they may let me take the test when I return from training. I know it's a long shot, but sometimes the stars have been known to align just right. I will prepare both methods, sub and dilute, just in case. It's a shame. I quit smoking on Feb. 20th. Started working for an outfit on March 21st, smoked the 21st after passing the mobile lab test with Quick Fix and continued to smoke the 22nd, 23rd, 24th, and 25th. Only a bowl a day, but you never know how the (your) body is going to process the metabolites. Maybe Sunday I will take a home test just to see where I am. It couldn't hurt right???????? Sin |
