[QUOTE="TorqPenderloin, post: 1096949, member: 211504"] First, why would you need to change your basal insulin times? Does your profession not allow you to step away for 30 seconds and give yourself an injection? Second, a medical trial is a choice rather than a requirement. Unless there’s more to the story, it may be wise to reconsider moving forward with this. Third, if your job previously required you to work a 2-10 shift then you’re asking for a much more “Convenient” schedule. There’s nothing wrong with that, but if they were to honor it it would be to respect your work/personal life balance. While that would be a nice thing to do, I can’t see it being a requirement. It sounds like you would benefit from a position with more set hours and with a company that takes more of an interest in the lives of its employees. With that said, I can’t see how any of your concerns would be protected by law as none of them are requirements to managing your condition. [/QUOTE]
