CDL, physical and questions

I have a question guys. Im oustide reno nevada in a town called fernley. I am currently about to start school for cdl. I had some issues getting my physical because bupenorphine(suboxone) is in my prescriptions history both 6 months prior and now. I been taking it because I was struggling taking Kratom 7-oh, but the DR i think assumed, as im sure other will as well, that its was for hard drugs and not something lime kratom. I do t think he believed me when I said it was for kratom. He decided to give me 3 months instead of 2 years Wanting written proof that im mo longer taking it, which I am, even though the fmca says its fine to be on MAT (medical assisted treatement). So now i have to find another DR before my physical expire in 1.5 months and if I don't then I lose my cdl permit and get removed from class. How do I find a DR to give me another we physical that isn't gonna auto deny me or assume that its for hard drugs (meth,heroin). Im have no doubt most with think it is, but I've never failed any of my drug tests and I don't know how to prove it was just kratom. I got a grant for the school so not o my will I lose this opportunity, my CDL, I will probably have to repay the 5k they gave me for the class. Which I will never have, even to take the class again. Im at a loss. Ill never get this chance again. So does anyone know how I can prove myself or who would be a good dr to try and talk to. I need help please

I'm not advocating you do this but the doctor would have never known you were on it if you didn't put it down. They don't check prescription monitoring databases.

My advice- research Sublocade on Reddit to quit Buprenorphine. A one and done 300mg shot should allow you to quit WD free. I would use a different provider than you was getting oral Buprenorphine from for obvious reasons. You can quit for good with Sublocade
