Guest, we'd love to know what you think about the forum! Take the Diabetes Forum Survey 2025 »

Message: <blockquote data-quote="AlexJD" data-source="post: 1570084" data-attributes="member: 428779">Diabetes as a disability could trigger rules against discrimination - however whether the local legal system would consider diabetes a disability is another question. It might be a though line of argument to run given that the restaurant did not actually refuse to serve you but requested that you test your blood/take insulin elsewhere (which they would, and possible rightly could, argue is for health and safety reasons, even if we, diabetic ppl, know it's BS).Regardless, I agree with the other posts: I hope you left quickly to a more welcoming place + name and shame please. Ignorant and abusive people like that do not deserve your time or energy.Please note that the above is not legal advice and I would recommend you seek the opinion and assistance of a qualified lawyer if you want a definitive view on this.I hope this helps.Alex</blockquote>
