Thanks everyone for your replies and insight! It makes sense now and was able to give mom a proper answer as well!
Canaan;
I truly DO hope you work out your health/med issues.
Trucking IS (can be) a very REWARDING career. I'm on my 2nd (guys) one, haha! Been with him for 20 plus years. It's NOT easy on the female of the family, either. Know that.
Sometimes, Tom refers to himself as "I'm just a Dumb Trucker." Ya know what? The 2 degrees he has....didn't pay anything. I get upset when he says that, but ... some people just have that mindset. Stay AWAY from those'uns!
Best wishes, good sir.

ps: Read Old School's blog! It's in his profile. It's AWESOME. If you can't find it, lmk! He should've been an author, pro style!
pps: I spent 34 years in the industry Kandyman has / is . . . they don't nearly recognize THAT enough, either.. but ! We can't all be doctors and lawyers. If we were, nobody would need us/them! LoL !
Thanks for the replies pack rat and Rob T! I do wish people would respect truckers more. Without trucking my family would have been homeless from the beginning. My pap was a trucker and due to poverty and such mom and I basically relied on him for support. And I got to travel the country with him growing up. It was a very awe inspiring opportunity and with out it I guarantee I wouldn't have the desire to drive myself. I guess more people need to be made aware of the importance of Truckers and the emotional and physical toll Trucking itself has on the driver's.
You summed it up, yourself, sir!
I feel like I am close Anne, I believe I have finally gotten to the correct specialists and have a new internal medicine Dr that is working along with them all. I hope to finally have answers after my next few tests, got my 2 mri scans and also have to do some sort of stomach testing where they feed me breakfast and for the next 3 hours on the hour they scan my stomach to see if the food is digesting and moving through my system properly. I have good feelings about these tests. And I do believe I am finally starting to heal naturally as well. Finally after 10 months I am gaining strength back and am having many less days weak in bed!
