    I think she wants to let me go because “your low blood sugars are happening too often”.

    My manager said I should take time out because I said I haven’t been feeling too great with hypos etc. Dexcom graph looks drastic, but she won’t do it under SSP.

    It’s a shame that omnipod doesn’t offer more options for cannulas etc. @karen8967 I hope your team can offer you something else. Have you tried a barrier type product or skin barrier stuff to see if your skin reacts the same? As Marie said, it could be the adhesive or the cannula or the insulin...

    Multiple Daily Injections and Corrections and/or snacks

    Hello, it’s a bit difficult without carb counting. Have you asked to see a dietitian to get the basics of it? Once you get your head around it, you’ll find that fat slows down carb absorption so people actually split dose for takeaways, high fat foods like crisps, chocolate etc. I do inject for...

    @karen8967 Sending you hugs! I hope your dsn gets back to you asap. Being high most of them is not fun :( I know our experiences will be different but now I’m fearing Friday which is my turn.

    One of my interviews have been cancelled so I have one tomorrow and I’m free until pump therapy. I guess I can use the time to look through uni work and with the other job, they are not offering me any hours as well.

    I did tell my supervisor that I was in the wrong but I still get a whatsapp message from my manager asking why did it happen. I wasn’t ignorant or rude to that table, I tried my best in asking the kitchen if they can get their dish out asap but they disregarded it until supervisor went upstairs...

    Hello friends, Diabetes has been okay and work is not going so great. I’m in a whatsapp group for work and my manager exposed me again in front of the group. Apparently lunch service was very poor because of me. It was my bad that I didn’t double check the order and sometimes the computer...
