Hi mate I had three medicals one they didn't use (lost paperwork) the other two all was good with 0.9/0.7 CDT reading I had to abstain for 12 months backed up wth 4 liver function tests(April,June.sept.oct) all were normal, the DVLA medicals one in June and one in October , in my case the DVLA sent three DD2s and two M2s to my GP for him to complete, they first revoked me on the M2 for being dependant way back at the beginning, from then on they did mess me around a lot not knowing little info, but to explain it easy "dependant= 12 months abstination , 4 LFTs over the year,2 DVLA medicals 0.9/0.7, medical questionarres showing support from GP,dependence or misuse controlled, antidepressants showing no problem wth driving, and to be honest lots and lots of nagging my chosen doctor so that the forms were filled out correctly, what I would add though is that if anyone is labelled misuse be very careful because they will look for abstination as well, crap I know but I felt with advice from DVLA if you continue to drink with controlled drinking they'll scrutinise you more through your GP, it's far less complicated to say that you don't drink anymore....having a nurse as a wife undoubtetely help me get it right first time round and the forum, I had lots of hidden advice especially of Craig 121...just knock the booze on the head for a while and you'll soon be on your way to a licence....
