My best friend is diabetic and she has been so lucky, 9 times out of 10 she has never been checked and the odd times we have been asked we have been told if we have any problems we are welcome to come to reception and use the main office to inject. She may just be lucky, but she has never told...

I dont find Sainsburys cafes the best at all, the last time I went in there I waited over half and hour for a bowl of soup which they eventually served me straight from the pot they had behind the till (so I would have thought could have been served a lot faster). I had to ask for the...

This is absolutely awful, I hope you pursued it. I have also been asked questions regarding my children and childcare etc, but never about my health. I feel I have missed out on jobs before because I have two young pre school children so I completely understand your frustration.

I'm still trying to get on top of my blood sugars also, but I too have found eating more crackers instead of break was better for my blood sugar levels too. The thing I really want though is rice pudding, so I think I may have to look into making a version and experiment with the ingredients to...

Yes I work, I have just been diagnosed with gestational diabetes on my third pregnancy.

My prayers are with Jakub and his family. x x
