It was all going to fine, yes, i've had a relapse, i had another bout of vertigo sunday and monday, this time whilst walking the dog, luckily not so severe, but i ended up back at the surgery today, saw a different GP, and this one says he's sure its Minieres and and he's put me on medication, now for he bombshell, he has advised me that i shouldnt drive at all, certainly until i have seen the specialist, because of the nature of the way the condition impacts, so thats a 48 week wait until the specialist can see me, i spoke with a nice lady at DVLA, who said, that i should surrender my licence she sending out the form for me to fill in, and return with my licence,But since then, i have downloaded another form, as recomended by a body that supports Meniere's sufferers, and reading that, as long as i am taking medication, and have sufficient warning of an attack, that i could stop my car safely, which i think i can, theres every chance i can continue to drive,
