[QUOTE="Vaper, post: 1526239, member: 355109"] Hi, Locking for some advice please. Type1 basal bolus system I work for the railway and have done for 8yrs as a manager,normal shifts would be 4days 4 off 4 nights 4 off repeated and shared between 4 of us. As my occupational health advisor has stated no night shifts and backed up by my specialist due to the fact that it was very hard to stabilise my levels. Based on one of the team saying they are not prepared to accept doing less day shifts my employer is looking to medically retire me at 49yrs. I've explained I can work 18hrs of the day any day of the week but need to have a constant sleep patern in order to keep me stable and not off sick. I have not been off sick since stabilising and have been travelling 4hrs a day for work on top of a 8hr day 5 days a week so other than the need for a regular paternity I am fit and well. Does anyone know where I stand please. [/QUOTE]
