Just wanted to thank you all for your advice and give you an update - HR was very understanding and was happy for me to reduce my contracted hours subject to me checking with head of department.... The partners I work for weren't so keen - they've said I can do it on a temporary basis by working...

If you go to bed at a 'normal' level and wake up at 20 you may be having night hypo's, with a liver dump causing the high. Have you tried a 2am test? Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

I believe there used to be a nasal inhaler but it was not very popular and was withdrawn. Not sure if this is the same thing or something new? Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

I get stitch like pains in my right side. Had an ultrasound on my kidneys and they couldn't see any issues so the cause is unknown. Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

I use my stomach, the bottom section inline with my belly button and below. I do it to one side so only have to lift my top slightly at the side. Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

Thanks Brett, it's good to know you started in a similar situation and are now back up to working overtime as I used to. Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

Thank you Noblehead, I tried speaking to the diabetic nurse at my GP's back in December and she just suggested working part time, when I said I couldn't afford this due to owning a house she suggested I get a lodger! She also asked if I'd attended DESMOND which I thought was for type2 and her...

Thank you all. I think psychologically it would really help me to drop a day per week as I'm feeling quite negative toward my job which I use to love. I'll see if I can try it for 6 months or so and go from there. I'm seeing the consultant in May so will discuss with her if I'm still so tired...

Thanks Vanessa, same I can't afford to cut my hours really, but hoping they'll let me reduce by 2.5 hours per week, and make up the other 5 hours on the 4 days I work. If your hubby likes ironing send him my way! I live alone so no one to clean for me, but I guess atleast it's only my mess! x...

Hi, I often have a hypo 24 hours after a previous hypo ie I have a hypo after Monday night gym class and will then hypo Tuesday night. So perhaps you were due to hypo anyway and injecting for the chocolate made it worse? You could maybe have got away with the chocolate without insulin due to the...
