[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 147897, member: 17713"] Well today I got a letter from DVLA, and was absolutely dreading opening however, it wasn't what I was expecting...................... The letter said to make an appointment to see a certain named GP at my practice and to take all my blood test results with me, and that I have 21 days from the date of letter (took 5 days to get here) to let them know the date of the appointment. If I don't let them know my licence will be revoked immeidately, and if I don't attend the appt it will be revoked. Only trouble is, the GP surgery says they don't do dvla reports like that, and GP's don't see the person befor writing the report. (was told this by Senior Practioner GP last week, and then by the receptionist today). I stipulated to the receptionist telling me this, that the DVLA have written that I must be seen by this GP and I must take my recordings for him to see, and if they failed to do what the DVLA requested then they were breaking the law. She then said she would see the supervisor who would send me a letter with an appointment time in the post. Somehow, I am doubting that I will get an appointment from the surgery to see the GP before the report is written, but I guess that I will face that if it happens. The positive thing is that the DVLA have not revoked my licence immediately, and that they want me to be seen by my GP and for him to see my results. [/QUOTE]
