ORIGINAL: HF i admit, that I am going against my doctors advice and have applied for school to learn how to operate heavy machinery. My doctor, doesn't think it is a good idea because I am a diabetic and of I have an sugar crash i could maybe hurt someone. i am on disability because of a transplant. and I am tired of not being a functional member of society, and this would give me a chance to get out and work, which is something I need or be swallowed up into a pit of despair. School starts in July, somI have a lot of time to get sorted out. wish me luck HF, if you are following the set treatment, a sugar crash would be a rare occurrence, unless you get real dehydrated, then there are other problems going with the drop in sugar. I know of diabetics operating everything from heavy machinery to the cranes they use to build skyscrapers with perfect safety records. the other suggestion is find a hobby that can be easily used to make money, in my case, I rebuild and restore old tube style radios which, not working, sell for 50 to 100 bucks and restored can bring upwards of $1000 plus. And I am on disability due to a serious back injury and repeated knee injuries (hence my post.) I am, according to the specialists: To wear knee braces at all times when I am not asleep, except if I am sitting at my pc. Avoid ladders, with or without knee braces Wear a fucking back brace which is about as comfortable as a cast iron straight jacket and use a cane when walking. Or alternatively, Consent for a 5th back surgery and 9th and 7th knee surgeries depending on which knee you want to discuss. And since locals are out of the question and I have a nasty habit of my heart stopping or severe breathing problems coming out of a general, I dont think I will submit to more surgeries.
