[QUOTE="Seano68, post: 1435248, member: 394373"] Hi guys. Sadly I was made redundant a while back. I made the classic mistake of drifting through my redundancy pay thinking I'll find another job soon. (I'm an engineer) Unfortunately that didn't happen so after spending some time with the happy happy people at my local job center I applied for and got something called a Government Career and Development Loan. I decided to try HGV training as years ago I used to drive busses. I'm type 2 and take Metformin and Gliclazide. If I've ever had a hypo/hyper I've never noticed. The doc says I have to record my blood sugars twice a day for a month before he'll ok my medical section on my provisional application. The thing is I've read some right horror stories about people spending all their time and effort only for the DVLA to turn them down. Am I wasting my time trying to do this for a living? Is there anyone who had fair and decent experience with this process? Thanks. Sean [/QUOTE]
