What do they mean by well controlled?

Hi guys,

I'm new to the forum and I have a question. I've been a type 1 diabetic now for 4ish years. I'm considering applying for my HGV licence and I was wondering what the mean by "well controlled" My blood sugar levels rarely sit in between the targets but they are never really low either. I'm a pretty active guy so I usually keep it between 8 - 12 and sometimes its higher because i'm lazy lol. but i've never had a major hypo in the 4 years.

Would the diabetic consultant knock you back for having higher blood sugar levels? or is he just making sure you don't go too low to often?

Thanks

I've already looked into the work aspect and I've contacted some agencies that say there shouldn't be any issues finding work. when you take a look online there is actually a major driver shortage because these companies are being so strict with age and experience required. yes I've heard about all the potential problems but because I'm regularly training and doing some form of exercise keeping it between the levels required causes hypos. I don't want to be having hypos in the gym or while playing rugby or even worse when I'm mountain biking in the middle of nowhere lol

Thanks
Craig
