[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 149915, member: 17713"] Intersting though to hear how hypo's affect different people, I had a hypo 20 years ago, 4 floors up on automated warehousing machinery. My colleague stayed with me, and another went to get me a mars bar and sugary drink. After my levels were back to normal within 5 minutes, I just carried on working and finished the rest of the shift off, just making sure I checked my levels every hour, and that I had a good meal for lunch. I think it's really interesting to hear how hypo's affect people afterwards. I never feel horrible or any different when my levels return to normal, so it would be good to hear from diferent people, I would love to gain an understanding of what affects other people, as I just have my own experiences and sometimes it can be difficult to appreciate how diabetes affects people in different ways. It is a good learning lesson for me to hear how others cope with work etc, because I really want to appreciate and understand how other people are and cope etc. It is good to learn and to appreciate other people's handling of illness and hypo's in work situations.
