[QUOTE="SimonClifford, post: 406021, member: 51740"] Harlow Hospital (admittedly 10 yrs ago) astonishing behaviour "we don't like our diabetic patients to self medicate. Tell us your doses you'll be needing over your stay here (FIXED, no carb info! :-o They then confiscated my pen so I couldn't give myself correction doses. The only way I could give myself corrections was to accept the meal injection & then not eat the meal. Astonishingly backward - even for 1999! Oh, and they refused to use my automated pricker & insisted on the steel manual lancets. Hospitals are the last place you want to be if you're diabetic, I reckon! [/QUOTE]
