Can’t you cancel it until you have seen a physio or OT who can give you professional advice?Just say you have a cold?

Surely it’s better to wait a while & get your confidence back & your hands sorted than end up losing your licence because whoever does this assessment doesn’t understand that with RA hands can be useless today…..but much better tomorrow?

If it’s gripping the steering wheel you find difficult aren’t there any accessories you could have fitted to help you get a better grip? Perhaps the assessor could advise.
