trucking jobs and open heart surgery

My husband and I have have been driving about 6 years; after one of those he had to come off the road to have open heart. After about a year, he went back on the road, no problem.

He had to pass physicals, have a note from his doctor, and have a physical every year instead of every 2 years as required by law. So should be okay, good luck!
