When I was in highschool, I kept my own meter in the nurse's office and separate insulin in the fridge so I didn't have to take anything to school with me. They were very good about letting me treat my diabetes. I think it's insane that they won't allow you to carry your things with you.

Also, when getting this resolved with your parents or lawyer or whatever, request-no, demand!-that you get to leave your last class before lunch five minutes early so you have enough time to get to lunch, test your blood sugar, take your insulin, and have proper time to eat. I remember lunch period was 30 minutes but it sometimes took 25 minutes to get through the **** lunch line! Ridiculous all in itself!

Please let us know how it goes!!
