RickyK:
Got me panicking now. Got my medical on 29.03 was hoping to to start my training in May, I am on similar tablets. My blood pressure is below the 180/100 threshold but I still need constant medication.Keep us informed as to the DVLA process.
yeah try not to worry i know easier said than done. my last 3 readings before my medical was around the 150/85 mark than on the day it went to 178/90 definitely had white coat syndrome that day. i had it checked the other day at a cardiology appointment it was 140/80 so. yeah just don’t worry about it.
so long story short
i phoned the doctors Monday still no letter
phoned on Tuesday still no letter. this isn’t going anywhere fast
phoned DVLA Tuesday. they told me the doctors should have the letter because they sent it over a week ago. i ask what are my other options. “oh we can fax it if you like” WTF why cant they do that it the first place.
“oh and dont forget to tell your doctors they can fax it back”. are these people sure. government run departments are useless.
anyway
my doctors phoned me and told me they had received the fax and sent it back to them. so out of curiosity i asked what is it the DVLA was asking for. bearing in mind i had gave them a copy of my ECG echo cardiogram and other bits and pieces i had got from my doctors because i paid for my medical records which was £10 if you ask me well worth it to send stuff with your medical.
anyway all they wanted was a copy of my cardiology appointment i had on the 9th of march which was after i sent the medical forms but because i told the D4 medical bloke i had it and i booked it online we wrote it in the box on the form.
so it took 5 weeks in total to get my provisional license back 
so RickyK you have nothing to worry about just make sure you get your medical records and put copies of the tests you’ve had with the D4 medical when you send it off. you will just have to wait a little bit longer to get your provisional back than someone who has a good bill of health. all the best fella.
