I was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes(糖尿病) in 2017 And then I was told that I couldn't 1for a few weeks until my blood sugar levels had 2.
Driving was a 3very soon after diagnosis for me. I needed to get to the chemist's shop for my diabetes 4and to hospital appointments, but initially couldn't - having been told not to drive. I didn't want to be a 5 -having to ask for lifts all the time.
I found it really 6 to be unable to drive, but things settled down after that and seemed to be7 —--for a while.8, to my surprise, I had a severe hypoglycemia(低血糖) last year and wasn't able to 9it myself. I called an ambulance and was taken to 10, where I saw doctors and nurses I didn't 11as none of them were connected to the diabetes team who usually cared for me. That's where my 12began - they advised me not to drive on the basis of this 13. They told me to call the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency(DVLA) and 14what they'd told me to them. This 15my license being withdrawn.
I couldn't 16 all that had happened - it seemed 17. I needed answers and 18, so I phoned the Diabetes UK Helpline number I got from their website. They 19 I was right in thinking that the DVLA shouldn't have 20 my license based on this hypoglycemia, according to the law. With their help, the DVLA sent me a letter admitting making a mistake. I got it back in six weeks.
