Driving with a Medical Condition: Share Your Experience

What is your experience with driving? I had several car accidents prior to being diagnosed but have not driven since my last surgery. I have an appointment with my Nuerologist on Monday. What is your experience with driving and your condition?

I have not had any trouble driving except for I feel like I have car narcolepsy. If I’m sitting in the car for more than 30 minutes driving I start to fall asleep. Don’t know if it’s related.

Sadly I haven’t driven since my most recent 4th ventricle shunt surgery. Which I had done in 2019. So it’s really also affecting my anxiety and depression because I’m not able to drive and have my independence back.

I'm 27 years old and I don't drive. I'm scared that I'm going to pass out from an episode of hydrocephalus.
