There were 2 sections of the form that the DVLA were concerned about.Age 70 I had a medical at my GP’s with the intention of keeping my C1 license. The doctor found I had a heart murmur so she was obligated to inform DVLA. They decided to review my case and after a rather worrying time the gave me a 3 year license but no C1. 4 years down the line I’ve just had remedial heart surgery so all is well.
1. Sleep Apnea - which I reported to them in 2010 and is treated with a CPAP machine.
2. Atrial Fibrillation - which was diagnosed 2 years ago and it has been controlled ever since by medication.
All of this info was on the form and readable but it has fallen into the black hole that is the "tick box" syndrome!
I shall just keep on waiting..........
