15 years of shit.

@Regina do not believe, I carry a good dose of laser, vitreoctomies, etcthat we play.For that reason, certain glycemia no longer worth me, to tell the truth, I look for something else.

Of course we cannot compare the treatments that were before with those we now have at our disposal.Including continuous glucose and pumps meters ... my mother what inventions!
And, yes, there are times that everything is very uphill and it is very heavy to be constantly pending glucose, but I also thank all the possibilities that I have within my reach and that it is a disease that does not hurt and I do notIncapacite to make my day to day.And neither do I want to sound like "there are very worse things", but it really is so or at least I live it like that.

@Alberto_13 For commenting that diabetes should be treated as disability and an early retirement I am not plañidero.

To have good control I am on top of my disease 24/7.

I have been transparent with my company and communicated that I am diabetic.Which allows me to be able to go to medical appointments, collects from sensors, analytics ... I allow me and thank you for it.That supposes a lot of time and concerns. So much for me as for my company.In the day to day the glycemic variations of a diabetic affect work.And therefore, many people hide it.

I am aware of my limitations and that is why I advocate recognizing them.Yesterday at work I had planned to eat at 1. I click 15 minutes in advance.A last minute meeting arises and I have to say that I can't attend.In a competitive labor market for a lot of compression on the part of the company we are on equal terms and that subtracts us from us.

Why a degree of disability?I believe that we are aware of the amount of time that we depend on our disease.Waiting times, hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia, medical visits, time at the phone managing appointments, sensors ...

You are right and you are not plain.Things are difficult with diabetes even if we put on our part and justify the need for help.If I were the court I would have granted it ...

And I think the same for those who have physical work.Putting health working at 200 to avoid hypoglycemia is not receipt.
In the end I think that there should be anticipated aid and retirement, I think depending on each case, but some are very clear.

I also agree with all this.The limitations are there, that would have to be recognized in some way.

By the way I would like to know things that you did before and that diabetes prevents you

@Alberto_13 is not to give up the first exchange.
There are people who carry the disease better than others.This happens with all diseases and ailments.
There are people who are very “waterfall” and it is, in that case, in which some ask for a medical court, as it should be.

It is really not crazy, not everyone has controlled disease and can do "what everyone does."

I have been condemned for 37 years.Mine I face every morning with resignation, but I am not imposed to lead a "normal" life beyond always carrying carbohydrates even or lowering the garbage, and the glucometer and at least the fast insulin every time I leave my neighborhood.Every weekend I consider doing tourism or hiking while my body allows it, and every vacation shift I try to make a pending trip, because I never know when the last one will be.In fact, it is never 100% sure that I will wake up the next morning ... but even so, I plan in the short and medium term, and the Handicaps of the DM1 I am raffling them with forecast first and then on the march.

I must also admit that I work sitting, and very occasionally I have some hypoglycemia during a meeting.

I consider that incapacitation is a good option for those who have a very physical job that does not allow them to take care of their health correctly, but I also think that we must try to integrate without being noticed too much.

But why don't they have it controlled?

Eye, that for now I do not complain personally.At the moment I have no problems that I cannot solve.But not all are the same and read testimonies of people who do have limiting problems.I think working under construction makes good control difficult and is more dangerous than working in an office, for example.

And you would not have to give animos to those people who need it, instead of encouraging them to plead with the administration for a degree of disability, that they will only give it, hardly, if it is poorly controlled,?And I wonder what is poorly controlled?

Totally agree.Each situation is different and cannot be generalized.
And the attitude is the basics in this situation (really as in almost everything in life).
Do not paralyze, otherwise.For example, the sports theme.I have proven that I control diabetes infinitely better playing sports than being inactive.What gives me hiccups, because and I continue, but it is necessary.
For me, today, I don't ask for anything.But each one has its circumstances.

By the way, for anyone (diabetic or not) it is 100% sure to wake up tomorrow.That is why you have to make the most of ...

When you give you an IPO you throw hours to recover and remain ground, I claim the anticipation of retirement and disability, all who works 9 or ten hours in the game, how long it has to take care of it!If, I do not understand, because they can work everyone even if it goes out, but it is a decent life, not having to walk and diabetes need time to take care of yourself

alberto_13 said:

Because each person has their own reality and demonstrates very little empathy to be so sharp with the lives of others.

There are people who strive to have good control, do all the "duties" and are still for drag.With neuropathies, pains, derived diseases or others that complete the cocktail of shit .

In a post it is difficult to tell everything that prevents me diabetes.

In workplace.Compete from you with non -diabetic people.I already explained it in the previous post.A hyperglycemia, at least in my case, is at least an hour of control to rectify it.Which means not being 100%.I have also had hyperglycemia of cold sweats that totally incapacitates me.

Not only the issue of competitiveness but also availability.Call the health center every month, go for sensors, diabetic material, reviews, call Abbott etc etc

That is why I indicate that a degree of disability favors the worker and the company.

In the personal sphere.I have given up competing at good levels in athletics since sport at high intensity is difficult to manage and more if you lack resources.Nutritionist, specific doctor for diabetes etc etc.

In addition, of countless activities.

Without offending Alberto, you have to think that there are people who have been with diabetes for more time than without it.And they have gone through scenarios that perhaps you have not experienced.

To me recognize the thorough disease is a path that I have still touring for 15 years.At first it was just clicking to eat and that's it.

But what non -diabetic people do not see is that that is the least.The psychological aspect and management is the hardest.

For me as you get, the way, it is different Entity DM1, DM2 DM3C, etc, etc ... as soon as you are insulin -dependent it is the same, same problems, same hypos, mimas hyper, you are not a strange species apart from the whole worldWe are all in the same bag ...

All aspects of the disease are exposed.

If you want to see something more Friendly you can go to Tiktok or Instagram than there are Super Happy Friendly Diabetics and only see advantages to the disease.

Moderate by: @Fer (@Josemibi Contact me by MD and explain to you.)

I clarify that I have not encouraged anyone to plead, I have only said what I think would be fair.

How do you encourage the one who either works at 200 or life is played in a scaffold with a hypo?I don't see the form.

Regarding control, well, there have been people who, despite taking care of them, do not get it because each body is a world and not all works the same, nor does stress affect us, what we eat or sport.We all know that the 2+2 never adds the same in diabetes.

As I have said a lot, the attitude must be positive, but I also understand that from time to time you want to let off steam.And I will not judge for that.Only oneself knows what he has inside.
