on my way to huston tx with a load that i had been lucky to finely to get i started to become very ill i stoped and rested but was not getting any better. i called my dispatcher and told them i needed to get to the hospital and was told i needed to get to nashvill tn so a team drivers could take my load the rest of the way.it was a4-5 hr painful dr i had to stop every hr because of the pain. i thought i had stomach flu.i got to nashville around 1500 and was told drivers would be there i waited till the nex day at 0900 they finely showed up to get my load. i called a taxie to get me to skyline memorial where i found out that i was suffering frome pancreatitis. they told me i would of been dead withen 24 hrs if i hadent showed up.5 days in the hospital no food or water to cure this followed by one week of bed rest.my dispatcher told me that i needed to clean out my truck because ptl policy trks cant sit that long.they were willing to clean it out for me . i didnt feel comfortable with this so sick as i was i got what icould out of the trk.that really kicked my but if anybody has spent any time in the hospital with intestinal problems you know what im talking about. my dispatcher told me to call back and fax a ralease back to work form after my week was up. was told i would be getting a newer trk to drive.when my week was up i spent 65 dollars on a dr to get release form faxed it in and called ptl which i was told that they wernt going to bring me back when i asked why i was told they didnt need to give me a reason.is this a company you would like to work for?
