[QUOTE="Robinredbreast, post: 1076336, member: 44643"] I think you have posted positive responses and tbh I think, from reading your posts, that the company you work for see you as a 'liability' and frankly someone they could do without. Companies do differ in their tolerance of employees being off work. I know someone who works at Heathrow airport in maintenance, this person has twisted their knee, they have been off work for a few weeks now and has since been signed off again and the knee is starting to get better, a male in his 60's. They have type 2 diabetes, on Metformin, but the injury is not diabetes related. Best thing to do in your position is to get as much information and help, from places like CAB or a union and if you think you are being discriminated in the workplace, then fight on as much as you can. A good thing is to write a food diary, as you have high numbers and you can see what is affecting you which will help get your BG in a good and stable range, but also the stress and worry do affect our bodies.
