[QUOTE="Goody, post: 343523, member: 48497"] Hi, i was diagnosed in late 2011 and i still go out drinking etc. and never inject on a nightout. Your bs may spike but the alcohol will soon bring them down. Then top them up on the way home with a burger or whatever you fancy. Sometimes on a really heavy night out ill experience hypos the next day as the alcohol is still in my system bringing my sugars down so wont need to inject much if at all. When out just keep off the sugary stuff ie coke, redbull and alchopops - you dont want your BS being through the roof. I normally keep to pints of lager then move onto spirit/mixer (diet coke). I went Ibiza last year with the lads, i was fine. A slight adjustment to my background insulin (due to heat and alcohol consumption) Don't let the thought of trying to find diet free drinks out there put you off. Most bars/clubs out there have a good selection of diet/sugar free drinks and are better stocked than most of the bars ive been to back home. Every bar/club in Ibiza had sugar free red bull! :) [/QUOTE]
