So, aside from Lucozade, what else has had its sugar content reduced? Have Rowntrees Fruit Pastels? Or Jelly Tots?

I've done it- I've officially emptied B&M of all of their full-sugar orange Lucozades. I've got a cupboard and a pantry full of the stuff but of course- I'm slowly going through them, Before I do, I need, need, NEED ideas about what to use as a replacement so I'm desperately looking here for...

Ok I'll give that number a ring but book in to the doctors at the same time just in case for prescription etc [emoji108]

So short term- foot powder/ cream. Long term (when I can get an appointment) see the doctors rather than the foot person or can the foot people issue prescriptions?

So some type of cream/ powder?

No itching at all. But have recently not known when my feet are warm or cold unless touching them @Deespee23

Ok so short info: 17 y/o Diagnosed 10 1/2 years ago Type 1 I went to the foot people (forgotten the proper term sorry) when I was first diagnosed, but then they never contacted me since. Recently I got a letter from the foot place saying I'm due an appointment. And they haven't had any...

Thanks everyone for your help- and that petition I have shared as much as I can and everyone is saying they'll sign it! And @Jaylee the irony is I'm on an adventure sports class so they do teach sport [emoji23]

Going on for 10 years (since diagnosed at 7), I've been bullied the majority of my life for having diabetes. I don't really understand why- I assume it's just because I'm different, but now it's got to a point where I just take it. Don't get me wrong, sometimes I will say something when I feel...

Just want to thank everyone for your information and support. The issue was resolved due to a high amount of class members reporting the incident to higher management. I'm now allowed to do my blood tests in class "as long as I'm discreet" (which is exactly what I was as ever- you all know the...

Um- 4, 5, maybe 6? I rehomed him after his old owners couldn't care for him anymore. [emoji28] Sent from my iPhone using DCUK Forum

@Crispy17 thank you- the more opinions I get on this the better! And yep- Marvin the corn snake [emoji216] love your beauty of a snake too [emoji7] Sent from my iPhone using DCUK Forum

@1abRat yeah that's a point- and the irony is we were in an Assessing Risk lesson (it's an adventure sport course). I keep all used strips in my case and bin them when I get home. Sent from my iPhone using DCUK Forum

@isjoberg oh of course in an instance like that I'd treat it first yeah!! Yeah that sounds like me- I didn't want to mither or make people worry about nothing, but then I ended up getting them seeing how bad I got which was a tad embarassing. But they support me so much. And I couldn't be...

Hey @slip my diabetic nurse/ doctor whatever he is called told me a while back I mustn't do that no matter the circumstances [emoji17] Sent from my iPhone using DCUK Forum

Wow guys this is all really useful- thank you!! @vic hill: yeah everyone in class knows and about 10 know how to use my orange emergency pen if needs be- but only 1 teacher because he's had to use one before and another teacher vaguely knows because I went and asked for a meeting with him so...

Hey- so this was my first year at college and there's 2 weeks left before we finish 1 of 2 years here. And on Friday my teacher asked me to leave the room because I was doing a blood test. I argued and showed that I completely disagreed with this especially as I was low, but I did as I was told...

Update: it was amazing thank you all so much for the help :) turns out I was the only one who wasn't sea sick and so ended up working like mad with the official crew members AND nursing everyone (inc the teachers) haha. It was the best experience I've ever had but I may not be allowed to go next...

Alright @Galja I'll bare them in mind thank you [emoji28]- any idea what I should do if I'm constantly throwing up? [emoji28]

I'm off on a 10 day sailing trip with College next Thursday and the shifts are 6 hours working, 6 hours off. Anyone who's done sailing before do you have any reccomendations? Them sugar tablet things make me sick (I will be taking prescribed travel tablets though) and I'll take a **** tonne of...
