    Would you take a cure if it became available? Curious?

    I'm not saying I wouldn't! Just saying it would be a big decision to think of! And just so different. I was just interested in people's views.

    Insulin and work

    I work at a supermarket too and I just keep it in my locker with my blood meter. However your work should not be saying no to that! It is not a safety hazard at all, they cannot inject themselves with it with no needle and it takes a lot to shatter them.. You could technically say something...
