[QUOTE="micksmixxx, post: 1384658, member: 7463"] [USER=32394]@catapillar[/USER], To me, there's absolutely no need for you to "sneak in quietly", ma'am. You should enter your workplace with your head held high. As you haven't mentioned that this is a regular occurrence I'm hazarding a guess that it isn't, so you should be proud of how well you're actually controlling your diabetes for the majority of time. I may not know you personally, catapillar, but I'm truly glad that you're now feeling better. I'm reasonably sure that the VAST MAJORITY of your work colleagues, just as everyone here does, will be grateful that you are OK. I'm not sure how long you've been diagnosed as type 1, catapillar, but if you're relatively newly diagnosed, you'll find that it's a "learning process" with getting to know how best to keep good blood glucose level control. Many years ago, I used to run marathons and was always in training ... like 6 or 7 days a week ... and I could almost time when my blood glucose level would fall to a hypoglycaemic level ... usually 1.5 to 2 hours after I'd finished my runs, and that was after reducing both my basal (long-acting) insulin AND bolus (fast-acting) insulin doses, AND with taking glucose tabs during my runs. I wish you well, ma'am, and hope that you don't have too many episodes like this. ;-) Lots of Love and Light. Mick x x x x x x x P.S. Please don't be offended, or alarmed, at the 'x's'. It's merely a logo, of sorts, that I've used for close on 40 years now. [/QUOTE]
