[QUOTE="Puppydog1, post: 421160, member: 81755"] [b]Re: Have you had problems with the DVLA since being diagnose[/b] Please don't get me started on the DVLA, have been diabetic for five years and notified them straight away as quite a shock to the system. No problem - diet and metformin. March last year went on insulin AND metformin and notified DVLA. MAJOR PROBLEM. Asked to submit my license, duly did and had ALL of my entitlements taken off me(grandad license). I move all manner of vehicles up to 7.5 tonne all over the country and have had NO episodes in 5 years. DVLA are aware of no episodes as in contact with my doctor but WON'T reverse decision. I told them their ruling was impeding my availability to do my job but their answer was this: If you wish to Pursue this further you can go to court and take on the Secretary of State. We strongly advise against this as it will be very costly and your chances of being successful are very slim. You can reapply for your license in three years time. Clarkson was right, this is not a Democracy but a Dictatorship. PD1 [/QUOTE]
