    Is it definitely just labyrinthitis? I ask as I have Meniere's Disease which presents like labyrinthitis. I didnt drive for months when it was flared up but filled out the dzy form on the dvla website. I kept my licence as I get warnings of vertigo attacks. You should notify your insurance when you notify the dvla. It's up to you to decide if you're safe to drive or not if a consultant hasn't told you not to. I just always thought of the worst scenario.
    Trying to get info from nhs is like trying to get blood from a stone etc. etc. I kid you not - the discharge letter just said 'no stroke, normal MRI' and a list of meds (bp, balance, cholesterol). The gp made the labyrinthitis remark/ diagnosis when I had a quick phone chat.
