Today, while at work I passed out due to my blood sugar not being normal. Despite the fact that it took 10 minutes to wake me, no one thought I was in any sort of danger. After the episode, I then got fired for "sleeping on the job." FML

Shouldn't your coworkers know you have diabetes?

Sucks to have low blood sugar issues. I once passed out shoveling snow, due to blood sugar, off my drive way and nearly froze to death so FYL

To Anon: this is the third time you manage to get an FML on here you are either incredibly unlucky or just a liar

To everyone on this page: Do you know where Anon comes from? Most likely the OP is a 4chan freak and therefore everything done there is "for the lulz". Anything he/she posts is a fake

Anonymous was a word used long before 4chan existed, idiot.

what DameGreyWulf said doesn't do the fact justice. According to this: http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=anonymous there is a record of anonymous in 1820. And i guarantee 4chan wasn't the first to think of "anon"

It's ******* illegal for them to fire you for having a disease or illness of some sort. They can't do that, and if this were true, which we all know it isn't, you could sue them. The same type of thing happened to my dad. He would always doze off at work, and couldn't help it, because at the time he didn't know he had sleep apnea. Once we had figured it out we were able to sue the company. To the OP: if you're going to make a FML, at least try to make it believable.

Not actually, the body is sometimes able to wake a person up after about 10 minutes without outside help.

being a paramedic and in medical school I have treated more diabetic comas than i care to count, NOT ONE woke up on their own, remember when blood sugars get low enough for someones brain to start shutting down nothing will make that better besides more sugar. The body would have exhausted it's options for gluconeogenisis for it to get to that point.

I just know what my doctor told me. But oddly enough sometimes when I'm low and don't eat anything my blood sugars go back up again.
