If one has genuine migraine they should not be crass.I can have something really momentary be unaware but I will have the migraine and it impossible get out of bed.That momentary sz is all difference between foot on gas and over the red light maybe tell them that.I think that story happen in north of England or Scotland and another in America .The English guy was dustman driver and he lied on medical said he never had black outs.I felt sorry for his GP who had to go to court poor man was visibly upset the doc at one time had diagnosed him with e and signed him off driving the guy lied said he never had any problems for 3years.It was all very sad situation he needed job did he lie nobody knows The Docs said he likely was aware.I think case still pending I know relatives want answers.
So do I think you should drive even with small sz no I don't you being bullied.You need assertive lessons I went on course of them and really helps
I would rather not tell these type people that I have epilepsy. If they are being overly judgmental about a license then who knows what else they will judge about? They don't deserve to know my business. And I never said I was being bullied or that I didn't stand up to these people. People will always have opinions and some are just more open at expressing them. I roll my eyes and walk away because it's not worth getting anxious about. And the news story I heard was different. This guy was driving around his wife and children to work and school. He was also driving to and from his job. I haven't heard the dustman one yet but I'll look into it.
