Diabetic Seizure, Return to game?

[chayce]

Rainmaker,

I appreciate your feedback and want to reiterate that diabetes is a disease that frequently results in low blood sugars if the patient makes a genuine attempt in trying to maintain normal blood sugars of 80-120mg. As such, I personally believe that blood testing is a critical part of the diabetic lifestyle.

I have been a diabetic for 30 years and probably average a couple of low blood sugars per month and detect LBS symptoms very quickly and also recover quickly. My point in this case is that the patient is familiar with what is happening and with their recovery time and this is just a normal part of being a diabetic. I am also in medicine and understand that each patients case is different and I want them to be in control of their life! Not allowing a kid to play if he has truly been unconscious is the right thing to do, but if he has just been a bit weak-kneed and sweaty with an LBS, an official should not take that control away.
