But you still have not had a true diagnosis and you know the symptoms now! You should check your blood glucose levels before you drive and every two hours after or if you feel the symptoms. Don't drive below 4mmols and eat small bites of cheese or similar every time you test.However, if you are diagnosed with RH, you will probably be told to inform DVLA, they, when I contacted to see if I could get a provisional licence was told no! But they didn't have a clue what RH is, or understand the non diabetic hypo stuff! Typical!Take your glucometer everywhere with you! And never drive if you feel, weird or headache or blurred vision or tired! Take good rests with plenty of water and low carb bites!If you don't think it is advisable to drive then dont. Same as drinking alcohol and driving, just better not driving!If in doubt don't!Best wishes</blockquote>
