The misinformation out there about diabetes and misunderstanding of difference between Type1 and 2 .
hi all, I have worked for ten years in disability sector . For last couple of years stress has increased massively to extent I feel it is causing frequent infections both tonsils and kidneys with no underlining cause . I'm considering moving to new job which involves 4x 12 hour day shifts one week followed by 3 x12 hour night shifts . Can anyone tell me how shifts affect blood sugars . ( well controlled type1 for 41 years ) thanks
