Recently i had to take some time out from work because i was feeling quite unwell due to my blood sugar evels being too high,had a sick note from the doctor who i have to say is very supportive in my battle against diabetes, she said it was ok when i told her was doing lchf to control my diabetes. At the moment a slice of toast can send my bs levels through the roof , so ive basically had to cut out carbs altogether .It was my birthday last week and i had a message from the deputy care manager from the home where i work saying happy birthday dont eat too much cake............... well........ as if........... i wish. I was mad as hell because ive been trying so hard to bring down my sugar levels .My daughter said dont take it personally, but its difficult. I hasten to add that this deputy manager said to me dont worry about high sugar levels theres nothing to worry about,you only need to worry about having hypos............ this comes from the mouth of a registered nurse i ask you.......... what about the long term complications , retinapathy,neuropathy, and other complications. I work in a nursing home with nurses who dont have the first idea about diabetes. Am i over reacting ?
