Went out for dinner with a couple of friends, Had business to go over and decided to hit up the local hang out. Boneless chicken wings… all around 😀
Anyways, we where chit chatting and stuff and the food came so i pulled out my test kit.. Of course i did all in my lap pretty much under the table so not to offend anyone. When done i put the used strip in my case zipped it up and put it back in my pocket.
Just as i got my pocket zipped up i hear this voice "Your an ignorant F***"… So i pull my head up and my buddies are carrying on like nothing ( not the first time i tested my levels with them around )… So thought nothing of it, then i get this bump on my back with this burley look guy saying "Listen A-hole when you do **** like that don’t do it in public where you are going to infect others"
Yea.. It was time for a DEEP BREATH! My one buddy across the table stood up and asked "Sir do you have an issue with my friend?" so i stood up and asked what i did to offend him. He told me it was my testing, injecting myself and "Spraying" blood all over the place. Ya…
I said "Sorry sir, i will take other people in to account next time and be sure to leave the dining are before doing it again".
Well long story short, There was an exchange of words at that point… Oddly enough it was between him and another woman at another table… And he was asked to leave the establishment.
Anyways,
What the hooting poop did i do wrong? DO you guys leave the area when testing your levels or giving insulin?
