[QUOTE="MeiChanski, post: 2187477, member: 503481"] I always carry insulin on me, incase of: - High blood glucose levels, in my opinion it is about the same concern as low blood glucose levels. If you are stranded somewhere with no basal or bolus insulin, things could get ugly very quickly. There are many reasons for low blood glucose but again, if you are stranded and had no insulin, your blood glucose wouldn’t drop. This of course depends on when your last dose was. Insulin is only in our bodies for a certain amount of time before our blood glucose starts climbing. - If I wanted an extra helping of food. - it is the only thing that is keeping you and me alive.
