This made me laugh. Reminds me of packets of peanuts that have a warning: contains peanuts!
I recently asked for sugar free or at least information about how much sugar/carb were in the actually cold/flu satchets so I could at least cover with the required amount of insulin. The chemist staff were embarassed and rather surprised that this information wasn't available...
Sometimes I have to complete questionnaires e.g at a beauty spa, hospital etc
I booked a foot fish spa last year for me and my sister as I was concious of my very dry heels
I had to complete a form, and there was a question asking if I was a Diabetic. I delibrately put on it 'no' - well at the time I wasn't on any treatment or diet, I wasn't even properly diagnosed other than T2 ? - I had already had my feet "tickled" (as part of my annual eye/feet check up) and was okayed so on instinct I thought to myself, if I declared I was Diabetic the staff in their potentially over cautious state (fear of being sued) would stop me using the spa.
Incidently used the foot spa once and it didn't really make a difference anyway
I was recently told to complete a form for a new run group I've joined and had add any illness/injuries that are important. So I put down 'recently diagnosed Diabetic type1 - on insulin'
She's never even came over to ask about it...
I also joined a weekly Zumba class and had to sign a health form, I put on the same details.
The instructor's never asked me about it...
Does this mean they've had training to deal with me if I become ill? :angel:
