You've reminded me on a story my cousin once told me about a T1 diabetic at her work. He was explaining his diabetes to his work colleagues and explained to them that if he went hypo he MUST have a drink of Coke - and that it was the fizz that he needed to get his levels back up. It HAD to be fizzy. She gently asks if it wasn't in fact the sugar in the drink that was important, regardless of wether it was fizzy or not. Nope, he informed them, it HAS to be fizzy.
What hope do non diabetics have of getting it right when that's someone that needs to know his stuff?!
Words fail me!
