Interested in what people think about my project!

Well Georgina, I'm an ancient and currently furiously angry old diabetic biddy, but definitely not because someone young and enthusiastic decides to have a think about how to brighten up our diabetic lives with attractive accessories.

I once added a design to my previous boring black meter case, which is probably not exactly the kind you're thinking of, but it did appeal to my weird diabetic sense of humour and did much to cheer me up at testing times...



So good luck with your project!

I have a bag I carry my tablet in, so I've been tossing my meter in that as well. Something to jazz up the case would be cool though.

Hey guys!

I'm currently a third year student studying Fashion Promotion and I have had Diabetes for the past 19 years! I've decided this year to focus my projects around my life and my diabetes. For one of my projects I have to create a brand so I've decided to base it around designing cool, original cases for diabetics! These will be to hold either testing kits or injection pens... or both.. I'm aiming these at young people with Diabetes and was hoping to get some peoples opinions This is all hypothetical and I wont actually be making a fully working product but I will be drawing and painting some print designs for the cases

I posted about this on a different diabetes site and received some angry comments from old men and women so decided maybe this was a better place to come

Leave me some comments!

If holding insulin then take note of storage requirements esp. temperature protection. I a T2 and not on meds, so I do not myself use insulin, but there are many who do, and could advise on this. May also need to consider including Glucagon kit for emergencies

As a T2, I use a bum bag .which I wear like a possit pouch or sporan. This carries my emergency snacks and glucose tabs. An ID holder inside to display a business card perhaps?
