[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1935557, member: 41816"] I’ve got one. Not insulin dependent, but I am allergic to bee stings, and should I ever end up unconscious in hospital and unable to refuse being attached to a glucose drip (which would, for me, trigger reactive hypos) then I also need an alert to stop them hooking me up. So easy to think ‘it would never happen to me’ but people without D end up unconscious, receiving medical care (glucose drips) every day. It might be a car accident, a stroke, meningitis, head injury... and you would need the medical staff to know about your bg and insulin needs. [/QUOTE]
