[QUOTE="anna29, post: 761076, member: 30936"] As I kept forgetting to put my bracelet back on after showering or doing the washing up . One fine day it happened - had a serious Hypo without it on . :rolleyes: Middle of a supermarket . Was slurring my words - lolling my head about and unable to expain I needed 'help' etc . Even gave a woman my handbag as diabetic alert card was in my bag . She gave me my handbag 'back to me' in sheer amazement :wideyed::woot: I was shaking with the hypo and unable to convey my needs in speech at all . This made mere-evaluate all issues with this . Decided to make a permanent fix to solve it all . Ensure this would never happen again with myself . Self designed a Diabetic Tattoo . Had it tattooed on my lower left wrist . Paramedics are trained to take BP from left arm . (nearest to our heart) Now it is a fantastic awareness reference point if ever I should need it ... [/QUOTE]
