[QUOTE="Spiker, post: 722119, member: 102150"] Except to be fair there is no such box. There is no box to tick that you have a medical exemption. There is only a box to tick that you have a VALID medical exemption CERTIFICATE. Like you I was told not to bother getting one. I move around GPs a lot and eventually I hooked up with a GP who said I should get one. The card sat in a drawer for ten years, never once asked for, but at least I ticked the box with a clear conscience since I was in fact in possession of the card. Though at some point it presumably became invalid. Fair enough, I guess the NHS wants a sanity check every 5 years to see if they've cured T1D. :-/ I'll phone the number and get a new card. Thanks DCUK for the heads up. And I hope there isn't a £124 fine waiting in my pile of unopened post. [/QUOTE]
