I have always had Asthma and have held a CDL since 1991. My Asthma has gotten progressively worse over the last 3 years. I am currently off work on Short term disability, however my employer is getting impatient with me and would like me back yesterday. 6/12/2020 my spirometer was 67% of normal with 3.04 liters. My last check was 80% of normal with 3.65 liters. I’m concerned because of the amount of medication that I am on, and I spent the evening of Labor Day in Urgent Care. Anyways, I’m hearing that I need 6 months of good numbers for DOT. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
