So I just started 11th grade, I'm a junior now. Woot.
The past four years I've been allowed to carry my monitor and insulin pen on my person and do my thing in the restroom right after I eat. And I've NEVER had a problem. Well this year, entering the new building I am not allowed to do this. It's difficult enough to get lunch with all the bodies in that lunch room... but they want me to stop and test my sugar BEFORE lunch, not only that, but take my shot BEFORE I eat. But how am I supposed to do so, when I am a carb counter? I don't know what I'm going to eat before I get there, especially since they don't post the menu anywhere that I can see.
So for the past three weeks I've been going to the nurse to test my sugar and take my insulin AFTER I eat my lunch, which hasn't been healthy, or yummy.
The prices are so high it's silly, and ontop of that, it's hard to get in line for lunch and keep my spot with all the other *LARGER* guys cutting infront of me, and pushing me out of the way. Yes, quite literally pushing me aside. So I barely have time to eat, I found myself having a bottle of water for lunch last Friday. The only reason it worked was because I was so upset about the whole lunch room situation that I had sent my blood sugar up to 234.
Can anyone suggest anything for me? I've tried talking to the principal, and he isn't going to move on his stand on this. He absolutely WILL NOT let me carry my supplies. And carrying my lunch also isn't in the cards because of the school's rules of what we are and aren't allowed to carry into school.
I could use any and all help?
