I found myself in a similar situation the other year - after diagnosis my license was revoked with no assessment. This was done by DVLA and I now know they did this to a few thousand people and that they shouldn't have done this. A large complaint was made and eventually I had an assessment and was given my license back.
Insurance companies are not allowed to increase premiums simply based on a disability or illness but have to justify the risk being covered. If the driving assessment deems that the person is a greater risk then yes the company could legitimately increase the premium but they can't get away with it simply because of a diagnosis.
