[QUOTE="angieG, post: 341090, member: 30853"] Hi Sue, Yes you can but you must notify DVLA and promise to test before driving etc. Give them a ring and they will send you a form to fill in (be careful you answer the questions right!!) More information here... [url]http://www.dft.gov.uk/dvla/medical/Annex%203%20changes%20to%20Diabetes%20update.aspx[/url] There is a PDF document you can download somewhere on the website that lists everything you have to notify them about but I can't remember where I found it (Gov websites always seem confusing to me!!). I rang them when I went on Glic and found them very helpful, but before they had got that bit updated I ended up re-diagnosed as a type 1 so I had to go on insulin. I have just had 5 months without driving coaches while I had the enforced 3 months off to collect the tester readings to prove I am in control. Consultant filled in the medical forms yesterday so hopefully I may soon be back on the road. Regards Angie [/QUOTE]
