Here's the link to the exact medical questionnaire:

Hi all,
Just a quick update. 10 weeks after sending my licence off I have today finally received some communication from the DVLA telling me that they have written to my Doctor with their enquiries, and expect a reply within 6 weeks (I hope it will not take this long as she is on my side - maybe I will make an excuse to see her and casually bring the subject up). There was no mention of arranging a medical yet, though. That's what is bugging me really - why can't this be going on at the same time to make things slightly less inefficient as they are now!! I will definitely need to have one anyway, and who knows how long it will take to get an appointment for that.
So that's it, my 12 months without alcohol has passed now, which was a sort of landmark in itself despite having to do it to drive again. I can't risk my health by going back anyway.
I have been saving up, and looking at cars on the internet, but it will be a while yet before the saga is over. I know in my heart that I am OK to drive again though.
I'll let you know how things progress,
Peter
