Poor Sue , hope shes better soon .
 
Personally I hate this kind of reporting. What is an attack of diabetes? Was it a bad hypo that she should have treated? Was it DKA or seriously elevated blood sugars. Or maybe it was something else; influenza, food poisioning, asthma, WHY. The media should be seeking to educate but prefer to sensationalise! This is why I never buy tabloids!

Get well soon Sue.

Same story really. I wonder if she's on insulin or gliclizide and prone to hypos?

Did you read the last comment on the mail link at the bottom of the page words fail me.It is as follows

"Some kind of attack" = she had a hypoglycaemic attack which is very common in diabetics who either don't follow a sensible diet to maintain low blood sugar levels, or don't take their medication correctly, or don't eat regular meals - these are some of the causes of a hypo. It can be quite frightening to see someone having a hypo, but the usual form of treatment is to give the patient a sugary drink, biscuit or similar, and hopefully they come round quite quickly.
