[QUOTE="elaine77, post: 482770, member: 59930"] No, ur argument is ridiculous. The insurance companies did what they did by law because they need to assess RISK as part of their business. It's disgusting and disgraceful to defend the fact that sulfonylurea takers pose just as much of a threat to the public as insulin users do and that they are not regulated in the same way. That is like saying if you are a heroin addict, that's ok, but if it's cocaine then that's bad! They are BOTH equally as bad and BOTH need to be regulated in the same way. If any insulin users came on here and said they didn't care that they could go hypo and kill people behind the wheel and that they just didn't think they should have a restricted license, they would be slated and attacked for being immoral. What your doing is exactly the same and if the other poster is right about the EU already making gliclazide takers have restricted licenses in some countries then GOOD and I welcome the equality and fairness when it arrives in the UK. I'm going to fight for my argument no matter what you think and hopefully soon the DVLA will see sense. You are wrong, in every way you are wrong. Safety and equality are paramount. Diagnosed with GD in 2010, Completely disappeared postpartum. Re-diagnosed December 2012 with type 1.5 diabetes, age 26, BMI 22 currently controlled by only Metformin, 500mg twice a day. [/QUOTE]
