[QUOTE="redrevis, post: 180293, member: 27435"] You don't need to 'hand in your licence' if you're on insulin. I think you've got mixed up. Basically you fill in a questionnaire, truthfully. Sent it to the DVLA, they will then decide whether to either take your licence off you, (only really going to happen if you have multiple severe disabling hypos, no hypo awareness etc) or restrict it to a 1, 2, or 3 year licence, where you'll have to fill in the questionnaire again at that time and they'll either renew your licence or take it off you depending on what's happened in the time since your initial questionnaire. You also have to give permission for them to access all your medical information for obvious reasons. That is my understanding of it anyway. If anything I've said is wrong, misleading or not 100% factual I'm sure cugila will quickly correct me :lol: Also like cugila has said. Who's told you you're type 1, has this changed from type 2? Have you been told your type 2 but now need insulin to control it? [/QUOTE]
