Hi,

I had a crash some years ago, breathalysed and blew zero (because I don’t drink) but banned for a sedative in my system. This was 2015.

Since then every year I have to go to the gp who checks my liver, sees if I am shaking and takes blood for the CDT test, every year I report zero alcohol, never drink, no medical help for drinking just no to every question and every year for the past 3 years CDT of 0.6%

I had really hoped this would stop now, they are testing someone who doesn’t drink to see if they are an alcoholic, it’s daft, but no, same again this year and now I see they have increased the timeframe for their questions on the medical form to 6years!

Im not worried about their testing me etc but is this going to go on forever? I always assumed it was only going to be until they were satisfied of 3 years of abstinence but does this suggest they will do it for 6?
