63? My monitor goes up to 30 then just says 'high'...130-140 in the morning?....are there 2 BS readings like KJ/Kcal? xx :?

I was arrested for drunk and disorderly and regret posting it on here because of the feed back I got!!! Yes I was drunk, not hypo, however, I was locked in a cell with all of my belonings taken off me without knowing what my BS was, the most frightening experience of my life!!! I've complained...

You had an all day 'bender', ate when you got home at 1am took 'a little' fast acting insulin which would counteract your snack when you got home and you forgot your lantus and it was 6.0 in the morning...How low would it be if you hadn't eaten and HAD taken your lantus? You've been diabetic for...

So if they're free, why don't the police have them? As the majority of the posts on here think I can't control my diabetes, I'm curios what the previous post thinks my Hba1c is.

What pointless task? Trying to get the police to have a bs monitor?....or have I missed something?

So your quote 'from birth' was obviously sarcastic, 20 minus 17 is 3....I'm not attention seeking so stop as you say 'wasting your time and effort by posting' and stop reading and posting.

Just out of curiosity, how old do you think I am?

They arrested me when it could've been avoided by letting me make a phone call...agreed by the sergeant...once again, non of you on this site were witnesses so it's once again, my word against all of you who've commented. I couldn't believe myself that non of the police in the cells knew the...

After being IDDM for 17 years, what problems do I have with my health due to being diabetic? How many times have I been taken to hospital due to anything caused by diabetes? If I'm such a badly educated diabetic what's HBa1C?

Yes I have, diabetics aren't given the right care in custody and I'm fighting to change it.

Diabetics aren't allowed to be Police officers...FACT. How come they know enough about being diabetic not employ one, (How can you arrest someone when your blood sugar drops and you're stood there ramming dextrose down your throat while they run away) But don't know how to treat a diabetic in...

My point exactly!!! That was confirmed by the sergeant who came to my house yesterday who is now going to take it further and agrees that they should have a monitor and going to see his superiors about getting them!! :thumbup:

I did take my insulin at the banquet but I KNOW that when I drink it goes high then drops like a ton of lead, that's why I refused to take my lantus without sugar as the police wouldn't tell me how long I'd be in custody for. After I drink, I take 3 bottles of lucozade to bed with me cos I KNOW...

had my meeting with the Sergeant yesterday. He agreed I should've been allowed a phone call and things could've been handled differently as I was not abusive or aggressive to the police at any time. He has seen all of the CCTV footage and my complaint about my treatment in custody by one of the...
