[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 345018, member: 17713"] First off, DVLA normally have to respond within 8"90 days. Did you mention anything about operation at all? I wonder tbh if it is just diabetes they concerned about.. As you do say you shouldnt drive for 6 wks after op. I too used to live pretty much in a part of rural Wales where I just would not have been able to get to hospital and back by public transport...so I truly sympathise.. And also having also been under the cosh from dvla previously too. I did actually have some good conversations and help from dvla staff.. The rules of law don't forget arent down to an individual that we have to deal with.. They have to follow rules... The dvla can and will pick up on any illness .. Not just us..even the majority of people if they suffer from depression should notify dvla and be subjected to these medical tests and opinions. The most important things ref diabetes is hypo's , how many and how severe.... [/QUOTE]
