[QUOTE="TROUBR, post: 19854, member: 7865"] Hi I had just over 5 weeks off work after diagnosis - in fact they did not know what was happening to me for the first couple of days (I sent a text to my boss saying that an ambulance was coming for me and my hubby was all over the place and forgot to let them know and I was stuck in the HDU so couldn't!), if the doctor signed you off then you were not fit to work simple as. My eye sight had only just started to get back to normal after this time and I have to say the first few days back were knackering. It might also be helpful if you circulate info able how to deal with you if you have a hypo (this is what I did although I have to say my colleagues were the opposite of yours). Perhaps they may take it more seriously if they read at bit about it rather than just assuming and with some people they may just not know what to say to you. Sorry it has been so hard for you.
