Does anybody know if having had heart valve replacement surgery (aortic) is a reason for being disqualified or failing your physical. I had mine nearly 5 years ago and have been in perfect health since. I haven't even seen a cardiologist since then and I'm not taking any medication for it. Maybe it's something I shouldn't even mention when having the physical. I am new and I am planning on attending CDL school in the Chicago area next month and will be scheduling a physical at that time.
