Recently going onto insulin for type 2 diabetes - I don't drive as much as I used too anyway, but applied to keep my license in an event of any emergencies atm wifes full of flu etc -
I looked it up on the internet went to the DVLA filled many forms in and got my licence as I do not Hypo with diabetes I was certain my car insurance would zoom upwards as the internet stated that iot may or certainly would ......
No problems at all as long as you are passed fit to drive by the DVLA in Swansea the insurance company were satisfied with that this applied they told me across the board as it was your GP and the DVLA decision was to apply a road licence they were not interested they just made a note of it.... In deed I negotiated a lower price first before relaying my medical record and got a discount.
so there ends the myth some insurance companies do take advantage of health conditions so shop around these were big companies both stated the same information...
