REALLY? This is not at all reflected in the questions asked on the form. I also have a CGM and this was no on the form either.
Something needs to be done about this.
Where should I start?
QUOTE="Greyhound Gal, post: 654305, member: 16237"]The DVLA rules clearly state that they only need to be informed if you have had two or more hypos in a 12 month period where you have required assistance. This is clearly not the case and you should certainly appeal. Your doctor did not even need to tell them about the hypos you had had as you dealt with them effectively yourself. As Northerner says, speak to DUK about how best to take the appeal forward and a written copy of the rules, so you can quote them back at the DVLA. This is not acceptable.
Please let us know how you get on.[/QUOTE]
