[QUOTE="Kat.2008, post: 1053963, member: 226328"] Work colleagues (I work for the NHS [emoji849]) - she's having a hypo because she hasn't taken her insulin. My boss - doesn't understand that I can have 'units' of insulin and thinks I have to have something ridiculous like 10 separate injections to eat a sweet. Elderly lady at work - why would you choose to put up with your diabetes if you just gave up sugar you'd be cured Friends - I don't believe in type 1 they just tell you that so you don't feel bad because you've eaten too much sugar and caused your illness there's no way you just don't produce insulin naturally Gp receptionist - I don't seem to see jelly babies on your prescription [/QUOTE]
