[QUOTE="DavidGrahamJones, post: 2257336, member: 245335"] Unfortunately I've had 3 stays in hospital in the last 6 years, plus 2 day surgeries where I was expected to eat their food. Luckily 2 occasions were in a private hospital where I had 2 knee replacements on my wife's health insurance, I managed to get them done before she retired. Although there wasn't a great choice, I managed low carb choices as opposed to what they called 'diabetic friendly' and my BG was OK Then there was a burst appendix/peritonitis and a prostate procedure and a liver procedure. The day procedures I had to go without otherwise my BG would have gone up a lot. The 7 day stay for the appendix was not so easy and I was surprised how the nurses thought a BG reading of 10 was good. I hate to think what happens when you have no control over what nutrition you are given. [/QUOTE]
