[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 1544335, member: 21149"] I think the surgery was out of order on this. The key thing the DVLA want to know is whether you are hypo aware not so much what your lowest levels are. Your licence should only be challenged if you have had two hypos where you needed the assistance of others (read there advice sheets). I would complain to the surgery Practice Manager. There are rules about not driving below 4mmol and taking glucose then to get you up above 5 mmol but as long as you test before and during driving to meet those figures you are OK. I wouldn't argue the 15% accuracy thing too much as it applies to all meters. [/QUOTE]
