Insulin pen and blood glucose monitor case

Has anyone found a case that also has room for sharps? I notice that the mydiabetic case has room for used test strips, but what about used (pen) needles and lancets?

I tend to put them in old BD test strip containers for safety when I'm out and about (as I obviously don't want to carry a sharps bin with me). It would be good to have everything in one place though.

The Desang one I use has a mesh zip up space which I use for my waste. I just put them in a little freezer bag which I roll up to make sure they're safe and tip it out into the sharps bin when I get back.

It holds everything but I wouldn't say it's the most portable of cases. Can't have everything I suppose. :)

On the Frio website they do mini sharps boxes. I got a pack of 3 black ones. I just shake the sharps out into my big sharps tub at home if it starts getting full (because I don't want to keep buying them). They fit in my BG case no problem or handbag pouch and are discreet.
