Hello, Dave! How are you?
No, you should not be driving, at all. There is a risk of your developing chest pain, heart failure, stroke or having a heart attack, while driving that may not only endanger your life, as reported by the NIH, by could also endanger the lives of others on the roadway.
People with uncontrolled epilepsy, diabetes and other medical conditions are also often restricted from driving, due to such dangers.
Are you on any medications for it?
Your doctor(s) can even report this to the driver's bureau, in most countries, so your license is flagged and if you get pulled over, you could end up being arrested.
