Hi there. I was recently diagnosed type 1. When admitted to hospital my sugar was 24mmol and keytones above 6 and spent 6 days on a drip. Before my diagnosis I was offered the position of deputy area manager, my training was supposed to commence on the 24th august, I was signed off sick that week commencing but have been back at work for over a month and nothing has been said about my training since and I have the letter in writing offering me the position. Our company nurse also suggested my manager should allocate a room I can test my bloods and inject my insulin as I have been having to do it in the locker room standing up, sat in the canteen then people complain so have been going to sit in my car to do it and just feel a little like I am being pushed out and not supported really. Seriously thinking about handing my notice in on grounds of discrimination since my diagnosis, could I actually do that? Sorry to babble on but I don't know who else to talk to, thanks for reading.
