    it wasn't what she was saying that irritated me so much it was literally the sudden change from oh well done to oh no, that's bad you mustn't, you have to!, you shouldn't! for literally everything from self testing to eating 3 meals a day to everything. My other half was with me and even she...

    Can a Doctor inform DVLA about a patient on Insulin?

    I don't think it's a matter of can they report you. I'll think you'll find that if they believe that in their medical opinion you driving is a risk to the public or yourself that they have a legal duty to report it.
