[QUOTE="FatGenes999, post: 474691, member: 93031"] I've known a few people with diabetes, some needed insulin and some didn't. One pal I had, who did do insulin injections, had either an enormous spike or went hypo while we were in a restaurant.. Needless to say, she ended up in the emergency ward in the local hospital and was taken by ambulance that I called for her. She had obviously started getting lax about her daily insulin. She normally would go into a ladies room to inject herself, she told me, but sometimes that seemed like a pain in the butt to have to do. Maybe Americans are just very conscious of what might appear to be IV drug use to observers, or, some kind of politically motivated statement which includes drug-induced suicide:***: I have never personally ever seen anyone in the States inject in public. Happy to hear that Ukers are more open about it. ;) [/QUOTE]
