Yes, as long as your blood glucose is under control and you can pass a physical; and a person is controlling their diabetes by diet and oral medication!. It is my understand in our area, ( Mississippi ) that if a person is on insulin injection, that they can not by Mississippi law drive a truck!. I think that is because of the needles!.

My husband was a trucker for many years!. He finally had to give the driving up because he could no longer get a health card because of his diabetes and being on insulin!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
