Hello Ive been lurking on these pages for quite a while and just wondered if anyone had an answer to a couple of questions.
Firstly, I was banned 18 months ago and its now up, as I'm classed as a High Risk Offender I have to got for the dreaded medical which I am so nervous about.
Having being very depressed I had used alcohol unwisely, ironically I wasn't a big drinker before my conviction!
I had no idea about CDT testing until I went on the Rehabilitation Course at the end of last year, I have a massive phobia of anything remotely Medical, ive not been to see a doctor since I was 15!
I know I have to go and get it done and have abstained from drinking since I found out, I have made steps to sort other issues that pushed me to self medicate and seem to be seeing some light at the end of the Tunnel but am Female and overweight and know this can also have a bearing on the baselines.
I do not want to fail the CDT test, now, I have read loads of threads and know its a bit hit and miss when it comes to its clearance times so was going to give it till the end of the Month to Reapply, but in the meanwhile I was looking to have a private one done.
As I do not want to visit a surgery, is there any on the market that can be done at home and sent off or are they all clinic based? I wondered if anyone knew?
Sorry for the long post and thanks for all the helpful advice.
