No, certainly the last 4 or 5 years this has been the case. The notes I posted were updated November 2014 by the looks of it so pretty well up to date. I changed my licence last September, having filled in the questionnaire in late June and waited for them to deal with their usual backlog!!
It is prudent to have an idea of what your meds do to your bloods of course but with GPs constantly cutting the number of strips and meters for non insulin users, this is becoming much harder. I have to say though that none of the oral meds ever gave me a hypo, nor Victoza, so I think they rely on the fact that for most people that is also the case.
