I used to work 12 hr shifts in a busy shop and would worry about having hypos that i ran high too. It didn't make a good HBA1c and i used to lie to the consultant. I then stepped away from the job and evaluated myself. I realised that it is just fear and i was able to take time off and get myself back on track. I learned to recognise busy periods throughout the day and eat a couple of sweets for that period then test my sugars to make sure they were ok. I also found that going on a pump made me more aware of busy times. What made me confront my fear the most was finding out i was pregnant when i had a high HBA1c and persistently hi sugars and the obvious dangers to the baby!!!!!!!Sorry for rambling...........I just wanted to let you know that you are not alone with this fear.Josie</blockquote>
