[QUOTE="DaveTC, post: 1585949, member: 426223"] How import it is to mention will depend a lot on the job and how much you care about the potential to get fired for not mentioning it. No it shouldn't make a difference to how you perform your job. But we all need to test regularly, which may or may not affect your ability to do your job. If you have a hypo it might not really affect things, but if you have a bad one for some reason it might take you a good half an hour to recover from it. Various jobs might require risk assessments around it and as easy as it is to say it shouldn't affect your job. It can and at some point most likely will affect it to some degree. Plus diabetes counts as a disability as far as the disability discrimination act is concerned. [/QUOTE]
