trainee driver medical question.

Hi all

Just a small question, I have my medical coming up soon, I have very occasional mild asthma, I only use a ventalin inhaler before going to the gym (if I remember) but in general day to day life I dont use it.

Can mild asthma be an issue at the medical?

Thanks

I passed my safety critical medical last week, I have mild asthma and they had no issues with that. As long as it's controllable and will not be likely to incapacitate you, you'll be fine!

Was told not a problem during my medical.

You have to fill in a medical questionaire which covers all you medical history, they take your blood pressure, eye test, hearing test, ECG(heart test), height, weight, urine sample.
