I had the test Monday 29th July had no drink for 20 days phoned today and was informed they had the tests back but had sent a letter to my doctors can someone tell me if this is normal and why do they do it.
I'm in a very similar situation all round .. had the medical and blood test etc .. they wrote myself and doctors then wrote to us both again claiming I have some mental health issue (I have never any or been seen for any) requesting more information .. sick of it 7 years ago and still paying priceI had the test Monday 29th July had no drink for 20 days phoned today and was informed they had the tests back but had sent a letter to my doctors can someone tell me if this is normal and why do they do it.
I didn't have anything to declare .. I declared my minimal alcohol use .. but was totally alchol free for best part of a month prior to medial and CDT .. I'm pretty sure they are just fishing for any excuse not to give me my licence back as I know after 3 - 4 weeks abstination my CDT level will be low enough for them not to refuse .. there is no mental health issues on my medical records at all but yet they claim there is a potential mental health risk so won't release a licence .. I have spoken to my doctors several times and they have confined there is nothing on my record to worry about and nothing that I don't know about .. the DVLA refuse to tell me what it is that has made them go down this avenue .. I have established though that's "the medical team" (at the DVLA) have no medical knowledge or training (I don't mean the call centre that one rings for an update) so I don't get how they can make an assessmentit's just like any Tom dick or Harry making a judgement call on your ability to droveHi my license was revoked for misuse back in January they declared me dependent first off but with a doctors letter they changed it to misuse the doctor also informed them of my antidepressants at the time I didn't declare that on my two dvla medicals because this had already been explained to them did you declare it on yours ?
It will probably be an M1 form (mental health) .. slippery slope I think is that form.. (I have just returned mine) it' asks about drugs and alcohol medication and conditions .. if you think your fit to drive get your doctor to write to them saying soThey have had the forms back from my doctors and have now sent me something to fill in about my antidepressants any ideas?
Is it an M1They are saying that I have to fill in this form it may be worth my while to go to my doctors to do this? This is hard work
