[QUOTE="ickihun, post: 1256760, member: 196960"] [USER=333049]@liamstirling_[/USER] has your employer not spoken or briefed you already about what they expect from your disability in your workforce? A return to work meeting, say? I think I've been lucky as all my employers have worked with me in difficult times of badly managed diabetes moments. To have a whole day sick due to one hypo seems excessive to me too. Even when highly pregnant, on insulin and hormonal changes with the odd hypo it can look excess too. To me. Try and put yourself in their shoes. They need someone they can rely on. If your having regular morning problems maybe reducing your hours to afternoons only or afternoon and evening work only til your meds are revised. Let your employer know if your having problems and the solution before it gets to disciplinary stage? You may be surprised with their support. Positive attitude can help in such times. Give your employer a positive outcome to this meeting not a reason to finish you. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
