  I was diagnosed in 1973 at age 9yrs. There was no accommodations but I am sure I would have been able to eat/drink something if needed to bring my blood sugar up. There were no blood glucose meters at that time and I didn't have to give myself injections at school as my NPH and Regular insulins were combined into one syringe and just given two times a day (once in the morning and once at dinner time).
