[QUOTE="sallyg, post: 174432, member: 31816"] Hi , It is my Husband who is diabetic, he has type 1 diabetes so insulin dependent he is 37 and been diabetic for 22 years. He has recently started a new job, he has been there for 3 months and on monday was told by one of his seniors that he mustn't inject in front of people and should go to the toilet to do it! My husband is always incredibly discreet about doing his injections and only people that were really watching would be able to see what he was doing. Obviously this has upset my husband being labelled as some kind of freak. Is there anything that can be done about this kind of situation?, is it even legal to tell a diabetic that they can't inject themselves?. I am a dance teacher and teach a young boy who is diabetic he does not have to go out of the dining hall to inject and talk of such i'm sure would cause utter outrage. If anyone has any advice i would really appreciate it Thanks [/QUOTE]
