[QUOTE="victry77, post: 646474, member: 23137"] At work (large college) we have a care team who tend to disabled students. One of this team (who claims to have been a nurse) asked me, in regards to my insulin, "Doesn't it bother you having to take that?" I replied that I didn't have much choice and she responded with a disgusted look and said, "Yeah... but it's rat poison, isn't it?" I'm no medical expert but even I knew she was thinking of warfarin. She's one of these "bubbly" and "full of fun" types who a lot of people like but who can be a nasty bully if you get on the wrong side of her. Prior to my diabetes she would always make these little snide comments about my weight (that is I'm very slim and always have been). She just could never believe any woman could be naturally slim without starving themselves and would imply this is what I did. Horrible cow :mad: [/QUOTE]
