Hi guys
I know this topic has been discussed plenty of times but just seeking some advice please.
I have been a diabetic for 4 years and I have only just found out that I need to inform the dvla I am a diabetic I have never been told to inform dvla unless I have a severe hypo but I've been doing some research and regardless of anything I need to inform them I am so worried about this because if I had known this from the start I would have told them any how I am filled in my medical form and sent it off so waiting to hear. Another thing that worries me is that 3 weeks ago I had to get a new glucose tester as it had broke and I know that if u need to see a dvla consultant u must have 3 months worth of readings which I won't have. I test my sugars more than 3 times a day and they will see that from my readings. I have never ever had any problems with my diabetes every time I see my consultant he is always happy with my results and never has any concerns with me will I need to see a dvla consultant if my own consultant writes a good report? I am so worried as my job involves driving so if I lose my license I lose my job please help
