I've had trouble since he started to take over the running of the business from his dad. Its been a nightmare. I got put on an insulin pump 5yr ago and it was thought by them that I was cured and would need no more treatment. 20yrs of poor control have started to take its toll and now I have to have more time for hospital appointments and unfortunately sick days. The moment that set all this off was a few weeks ago I had changed my set then went to work as usual but unfortunately it had kinked and I received no insulin for 5hrs which sent by bloods up over 30mmol/l and ended up with ketones and it took a few days to get everything back on an even keel. This essentially resulted in me being invited to the office to have an 'informal' chat, but it actually came across more as a disciplinary.  And since then I have been invited to the office twice more. I have never had a problem before regarding my diabetes and I feel like its all my fault. And its really starting to get me down.</blockquote>
