[QUOTE="LittleGreyCat, post: 605406, member: 6467"] Just to note that not all T2s may need a medic alert bracelet. If you are not on potentially hypo inducing medication and have good control then it could be quite misleading. If I am involved in an accident and/or pass out I don't want people assuming that I am either hyper or hypo and trying to treat that as a priority. I can possibly see an argument for "out and proud" so diabetics can identify each other (hmmmm......Sugr app to meet other diabetics?) but in many cases it is likely to be a distraction from other causes. Just my personal view. Anyone likely to experience hyper or hypo symptoms should certainly consider wearing one. LGC [/QUOTE]
