[QUOTE="douglas99, post: 458559, member: 38028"] I went through all this, and can only speak from my experience. I'm controlled by metformin, and as far as I'm aware there is no need to inform the dvla. When I was diagnosed I did inform my insurers, but most of them didn't want to know. The question on all the quotes since has been "anything notifiable to the dvla". It's not, so I have truthfully answered "no". Having said that, it's worth running the quote with no selected first, even if you need to answer yes. Note down the premium, then requite with the truthful answer in. The premium should not alter, as insurers aren't allowed to discriminate. They may decline to quote, but that's a different story. As to your licence, take a photocopy of both sides. You should get the same classes of vehicle, but if the dvla mess up at least you can prove what you used to have. Type2 controlled by metformin doesn't need to be declared. [/QUOTE]
