[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 1233376, member: 17713"] Would you be able to talk to your parents and nurses about the possibilty of getting a Libre sensor (you wear this in your arm for 2 weeks and saves getting out your blood machine to test). It can also be programmed to let you put in what you grams of carbs are and to recommend your insulin dose to take. It may relieve some of the privacy issues around testing. Some youngsters have insulin pumps. Has this ever been discussed with you? The only real thing to do with people is to find a remark perhaps as simple as "it keeps me alive" or if the same people keep commenting then tell them "I have told you details previously and would be grateful if you would accept me for being me, without repeated questions".. It really depends on where you are, who the people are etc...you shouldn't be made to feel uncomfortable. Have you left school now? [/QUOTE]
