[QUOTE="tigger, post: 315543, member: 11023"] I've had numerous hypos at work and treated them all myself. I have never needed anyone else's assistance in those circumstances and resent people interfering as I'd rather get on and deal with it myself. I find most people a hindrance for all but coma type hypos as the last thing you want is to have to make conversation or have people flapping when you're effectively dealing with a hypo. I still don't see why it would merit instant dismissal not to disclose the information unless you are operating some machinery or doing something else which would endanger yourself or others or having to deal with a situation which would place you in danger. I do an office based job with control over my hours and an ability to test and eat when I want to. Full details were given on my pre-employment questionnaire filed somewhere with HR but I only told 2 of my colleagues on 2 separate occasions when I was reasonably confident of their discretion and I felt it appropriate.
