Been to diabetic unit today
Because I have such good progress in the last 38 days
He told me
He is stopping the insulin
Only 500mg of metformin
My numbers are hovering around the 5 and 6
Just filled out form for my LGV
Any ideas how long before I can drive
Or can I drive now.
 
I am not at all up on such things - maybe a phone call to the helpline can clarify things - straight from the horses mouth.
Someone on Metformin can drive, no problems nor restriction - but with your LGV being taken away that is what needs sorting out.
 
As your licence was removed thus you do not hold a LGV licence then no you can not drive an LGV until it is reinstated.
