[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 2276944, member: 53162"] Hello and welcome to the forum :) Is it right - no it's not right but it is also virtually impossible, despite very careful management and monitoring for a type 1 to avoid them if leading an active and full lifestyle, exercise, stress, heat etc etc many factors affect glucose control. Despite this a type 1 can do many jobs which would of probably been very difficult to navigate before tech, we have Scotty here who flies aircraft, Looper as a paramedic, many teachers, I would still get him to give it a shot, controlling type 1 now is much easier than it's ever been with the assistance of medical devices like the libre and Dexcom G6 to monitor glucose as well as pumps to micro manage insulin delivery. If he was successful in getting in he would have to discuss his requirements with his boss, to ensure that his team are able to support and respond if needed and that his needs are met in the workplace, so regular breaks, places he can inject etc. [/QUOTE]
