Guest, we'd love to know what you think about the forum! Take the Diabetes Forum Survey 2025 »

Message: <blockquote data-quote="DavidGrahamJones" data-source="post: 1419850" data-attributes="member: 245335">Apologies for me not knowing too much about injecting insulin, I only see from my father's view and he can take half an hour easy just because of his fear of needles and has made the whole scenario such a big thing. At the other end of the scale is a dear friend who is so discrete that nobody notices when he injects during a meal.I'm assuming that there are several managers with their own office, can I borrow it for a few minutes? Seems to me that employers make more provision for smokers than they do diabetics.How about one of these for an off the wall slightly tongue in cheek suggestion. Of course it's not very discrete but it might make a point. I feel angry, frustrated and shocked that anybody in 2017 should be made to feel the way some diabetics do, this is not the first time I've read a story like this, what is with management? Perhaps we should make sure that the PM herself is made aware of what's going on. I know how difficult it is to write a letter but it's the only way she will find out. Is there a way that we, as a group of forum members can help those facing this situation and making sure the PM gets to hear. A letter to PM and copy to local MP.</blockquote>
