[QUOTE="Pmerrill, post: 1691598, member: 109879"] Hi Sam My apologies for not getting back to you sooner, I must admit I really don't know, I can really only speak of my own expreience and have no idea about policies outside of the UK. I guess in the event that your medicine is notifiable to the DVLA (yes this is the agency that deals with licencing in the UK) then by default that will become a permanent record as you then get issued a special driving licence which is renewable every 3 years. I think this is the same for all insulin controlled diabetics and there may be even more restrictions if you've needed medical assistance for Hypos. In addition T1 Diabetes is most definitely for life and therefore I'm always going to have to re-apply for my licence and notify the DVLA as to what meds I'm on. All the best Pete [/QUOTE]
